Cons:Payless was supposed to be open until 11.00 PM. I had a confirmed reservation and arrived at the counter at 10:30 PM on a flight from DCA. Counter was closed causing me to rent from Avis at a much higher eater. Was told that the Payless agent closed at 6:00 PM. This was totally unsatisfactory.Reviewed 27 Sep. 2017

I got there and it was closedPros:That another rental agency took care of meCons:I booked my rental online. With the time that my flight was due to arrive. My flight was not late. I got the counter and no one was there. The guy at the Avis counter said he left at 6pm. My flight was due to arrive at 10pm. So no rental for me from Payless. And I'll never use them again now.Reviewed 25 Sep. 2017

We were traveling with our 1yr old and had a car seat - since I was told they couldn’t reserve one or that one would 100% be there - our stroller and luggage. We were given a crossover. The careseat barely fit in etcReviewed 5 Mar. 2019
