KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in West Springfield
- Car rentals in West Springfield, Massachusetts make perfect sense as the preferred mode of transportation. Traveling throughout the sprawling suburban city on public transportation could take more than five times as long, as it would take using West Springfield car rentals. West Springfield is also a city in Massachusetts at the juncture of two major interstates, the Massachusetts Turnpike, or I-90 which runs east/west and Interstate 91 which runs north/south. You can take the Mass Pike west into New York State or east to Boston. You could take I-91 north into New England or south into Hartford. Car rentals in West Springfield make traveling through this region of the country easy and convenient.
- If you are flying in to visit West Springfield, Bradley International Airport, located 25 minutes south of West Springfield, is the ideal airport to land. When you land at Bradley, you will have eight different car rental companies to choose from. Each car rental company is located in the Ground Transportation Center, which is immediately adjacent to the main terminal and reachable by a covered walkway. Car rental agencies at Bradley include Budget, Payless, Avis, National, Enterprise, Alamo, Hertz, Dollar, and Thrifty.
- West Springfield, Massachusetts is often described as a family-friendly town. As such, when you drive car rentals in West Springfield, you should always be cautious when driving around schools, libraries, and parks. Be on the lookout for signage warning that children may be crossing. Also, this city populated by families and young professionals tends to follow standard rush hour traffic patterns, with traffic congestion in the mornings at its heaviest from 7 am to 9 am and in the evenings at its heaviest from 4 pm to 6 pm. Driving through this sprawling, suburban City with its wide roads should be pleasant and convenient in West Springfield car rentals.
- When driving car rentals in West Springfield you are likely to drive on toll roads, specifically I-90, which cuts directly through West Springfield. Most car rental agencies offer plans for automatic payment of tolls in the rental vehicle. Drivers of car rentals in West Springfield should consider investing in such plans, since, often, attempts to make your own arrangement for paying tolls in a rental often do not work and result in tickets that are much more expensive than the car rental toll program would have been.

I went to Congress St in Springfield, MA to pick up the car I reserved and they did not have a car for me and the guy at the desk said, "Too bad!" -After three phone calls with not much help I was told I had to travel 45 minutes to another location and they wanted to charge me $40.00 more than my initial reservation. Finally things got resolved at the Bradley Airport in Windsor Locks, CT location, but I would not ever recommend Springfield Budget. Friends don't let friends rent from Budget! Avoid at all cost!!!8.0 Very good

Pros:
NothingCons:
I chose a 12:00 noon pickup time when scheduling my rental. When I showed up at noon the store was closed. This was a Saturday, and they wouldn't open again until Monday. This rental was for my family vacation that we had been looking forward to for months. After more than 2 hours on the phone with Hertz they proved to have very poor customer service skills or ability to assist me in any way. I ended up having to rent a car about 25 miles away from me for 3x the price from a different company. I do not recommend renting through Kayak (or any other travel site) - they don't communicate well with the actual company and the car rental company doesn't see any of the information you provided through Kayak. Find the deal on Kayak and then go directly to the car rental website and book directly through that company.2.0 Poor
Aug. 2017
Pros:
The location of the business was convenient right off the highway. That was the only thing convenient about dealing with HERTZ.Cons:
The Manager at this location should take a course in Customer Service. When I arrived they told me I couldn't get the car I booked AND paid for because it was paid on a debit card. I advised him that this card could be used for credit OR debit but he simply said "NO". He had no solutions to offer and did not even try to help the situation. I told him I could put the deposit on an actual credit card as I only used the other card because it wasn't clear that I shouldn't at the time of booking. He said "NO". I said what can I do...he said..."I don't know what to tell you...you need to call this 1 800 number to see if they can help...I can't". Bottom line...after much stress and NO help we left to figure out another solution. Fortunately right down the road we found another rental company which actually new how to service their customers. We got a better car at a lower rate and were on our way about 20 minutes later. Never again will I consider doing business with HERTZ.2.0 Poor
Jun. 2017
Cons:
When I arrived at Hertz, they did not have a car in class available, and offered me something of smaller class or wait two hours for my chosen car. I declined, cancelled and was told it would take 10 -14 days to get my money back/ although they managed to get my payment the same day.2.0 Poor

Dec. 2018
Pros:
Rental was canceledCons:
We were unable to rent the car due to the insurance requirements for a 12 passenger van. Should have been stated in the rental process that regular car insurance does not transfer to a 12 passenger van and only those with special insurance or license are allowed to rent this size car. Very disappointed to find this out 2 days before our event.2.0 Poor
Feb. 2017
Cons:
I booked a car rental through kayak and went to pick up the car and Enterprise was closed. I couldn't get a hold of anyone through customer service or anything. Apparently Kayak doesn't keep up to date with hours at Enterprise, I was very upset and was stuck with no car after driving all the way there.10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
Car was brand new with only 6000 miles. Ready when we arrived. Simple and easy. Staff was very pleasant when discussing this with them. No issues so far.Cons:
Waiting for my gas charge to be refunded. We filled the car up before dropping it off. I called to make sure I was not being charged. I was charged and am now waiting to receive the gas credit. I am sure it will be taken care of.10.0 Wonderful
