24hrs before our vehicle pick up the booking was cancelled. Left us to figure out a last minute plan to get to a wedding 4hr drive away. We were lucky to find last minute bus tickets that took us 8hrs to get to our destination. Never booking through kayak again.

The staff seemed to be doing their best in a difficult situation handling a lot of customers. We had a reservation to pick up a car. There were other patient people waiting. It seemed chaotic, like there should have been numbers given to us to give us a clue. We waited for our turn. I paid an upgrade to drive a Volkswagen Jetta. They said a Toyota Corolla was in the same class and that’s what they had. I see now that I paid a lot for the “convenience” of picking the car up in town in addition to Kayak’s fee. That was my mistake.
Easy to deal with, did wait a bit longer to get the vehicle after I had finished the processing of the paperwork but they were great otherwise.

The staff was very sullen. They didn't even look at us and talk to us. The car was very dirty. They tried to charge us twice the price that was written on the website.
The parking lot I went to get the car had human fecal matter right behind the car I was picking up and it was the mar disgusting thing I had witnessed and smelled in a long time

I rented a minivan. I called the agency to check the car insurance prices that I didn't hire on the application and they told me that the agency didn't have a minivan and couldn't have one. So if I hadn't called for some other reason, I would have arrived and they would have made a mess of all my travel plans. Bad service from Hertz for offering it and from Kayak and QEEQ for trusting what Hertz offers. I cancelled the rental and had to pay more at another agency. All bad!

Awful. The online rental loaned me a car and then I was called to be advised there were no cars available and a one-way rental to Prince George would not be happening.

I paid for a car and one wasn't available, so they cancelled the day before my trip and did not offer any assistance.
Super easy pick up /drop off. Amazing rates friendly staff. No hassle or issues with the entire experience besides navigating the parking lot which was just a me issue. Will definitely be using them again !

Exactly as expected. Efficient check in and out process for the vehicle. Friendly staff.
I had confirmation that a car would be available but when I arrived they didn’t have a car available and sent me to another location 20 minutes drive away which caused us to miss our ferry reservation. This could have been avoided if they’d rung me in advance and not to be told when I turned up!
