Absolutely horrible - poor service do not recommend. Booked a mid size/regular car on Monday afternoon to pick up on Thursday, arrived for my scheduled appointment and after waiting for 50 minutes they had no vehicle options available (no cars except for totally electric, no offered upgrades, nothing). Short hair lady was totally absolutely rude, manager sitting right next to her was no help, and then at 5:00pm (website hours say location is open until 6:00pm) was on the phone with customer service when they kicked me out of the building. Apparently I gave her the wrong look so she said “yea rollin your eyes now you definitely ain’t gettin a car”… Was leaving in the morning for a business trip and had to take a personal vehicle, threw a wrench in my whole trip schedule. They DO NOT CARE about customer service would suggest another location.Reviewed 12 Mar 2025

I didn’t like anything about the experience. There were no cars available for rental at any Hertz location which was a waste of time and energy. The company reps refused to assist me with contacting other locations for availability. I was able to finally obtain a rental from Enterprise and will just stick to them in the future because although they were out of cars they actually contacted me to get me set up with another location that had a car in stock for me.Reviewed 14 Oct 2022

Pros:STAFF WAS FRIENDLY FOR PICK UP BUT THERE THERE WAS NO ONE AROUND AT ALL FOR DROP OFF. JUST A NOTE TO PUT THE KEYS IN A BOX.Cons:A LARGER CAR AND THEY HAD THEM AVAILABLE AND ALMOST $14 A DAY FOR AN EXTRA DRIVER IS AWFUL. I EVEN HAVE AAA AND THEY WOULD NOT HONOR A FREE EXTRA DRIVERReviewed 17 Apr 2021

Pros:The staff, in Allentown, at Lehigh International, were great. The lady working the counter there was friendly and polite. The staff at Baton Rouge Airport, now that's a different story. The lady working there was full of attitude. Dealing with her, she made you feel like you were inconveniencing her by being there.Cons:When I arrived at Baton Rouge to pick up my rental, they didn't have the vehicle type that my reservation was for. I made my reservation 7 days in advance, only to be told they didn't have any luxury vehicles. I did however get an SUV for the price of what my reservation was.Reviewed 14 Sep 2020

Pros:Staff at pick up of cargo van in Baton Rouge was mixed in responsiveness and helping. We had to make suggestions to staff which they should have pro-actively done for the customer. They were courteous but seemed not interested in engaging perhaps because they were so understaffed. We actually had a very poor experience with a reservation for mini-van at BTR which they could not fulfill nor were able to contact me (I can't understand why they did not reach out via email) over phone and this set us back a full day and a half. The staff there at BTR was not helpful nor very kind again they seemed overworked and without much interest in engaging or trying to resolve our issue.Cons:An email notification that our reservation for mini-van at BTR would have been very helpful and thoughtful, saving us much anxiety and grief. No one cared to offer any sort of adjustment for the short-comings and problems on their side. I don't think I will be doing business with Hertz anytime soon. It is so disappointing as I have always thought of Hertz (as I used them many times over the years) as the gold standard for rental...not anymore! Truly sad experience and impression from a once well known company.Reviewed 10 Jul 2020
