Abominable. Firstly, they closed the pick up location for the day before my pick up time, leaving me stranded. Then they told me to pick up from another location but in modifying the reservation they mistakenly put same drop off as pick up when original drop off was in NY. When I brought this up they said that a one way fee of $200 would then apply if I have a different drop off. After three hours on the phone I was finally able to sort it out by sending them the original contract showing that my drop off was always meant to be NY. Still, I had to close the contract with the one way fee in it, and I’m told in 7 days they will reverse the charge to honor the original agreed upon rate. Fingers crossed

The car was a little dirty and hadn't been thoroughly cleaned. We also ended up with an SUV instead of a compact car as requested (I don't like driving big cars). I didn't have to pay extra for it (most people would consider it a bonus I guess). But they were very quick with both pickup and dropoff, and overall it was good value for the money.

Just an overall heads up, they don’t have a lot of vehicles so when you go in to pick up your reserved vehicle, they have to wait for someone to drop off their previously rental vehicle. Then, they turn it around immediately-so no cleaning the vehicle at all. Our vehicle had a check engine light on it as well. Customer service is luck luster-they do not care if you have to wait.

Pros:

Staff was wonderful. Unfortunately Budget doesn't provide the location with vehicles for the day until two hours before the site opens for business, so there was a long delay from check-in until my rental was ready.

Cons:

Turnover could be improved for cleaning vehicles by either having more staff or providing vehicles to be sterilized earlier.

The customer service representative at the Hertz counter at the 1919 Connecticut Av NW, Washington DC location was incredibly helpful, friendly and efficient. She made my car rental experience much easier than expected! Thanks

Kayak's reservation code was only entered in Hertz's system on the day before, meaning Hertz did not really reserved anything. I got to pickup's place and there was no car available. Had to wait one hour for it. Meanwhile another costumer, who had not paid in advance like I did, was there waiting for 2 hours and obviously got preference to be attended first. When client pays in advance, please HONOR the contract and have the car available.

Terrible! They gave me the wrong car pickup location. Then finally, when I Uber’d to the alternate pick up location, they told me they had no cars available, but that they’d put me on a 2 hour waiting list. I never heard from them after that.

Pros:

Staff were friendly, despite the many issues we had.

Cons:

Our economy car was substituted with a ridiculous, bright red, Chevy Camero. I was told there were no other cars available. While I understand there can be substitutions, this model of car could not have been more terrible given we had a long trip planned. We were constantly followed by police and weren't able to fit the majority of our planned belongings - not to mention the gas millage cost us significantly more fuel. The seats were dropped back and low making it painful for me (a 28 year old athlete) to get in and out, let alone my wife with back issues! Not to mention the wide wheels and low profile made hydroplaning a constant threat even in mild mist. The car had obviously not been cleaned, it was disgusting. There were empty ice cream containers under the seats along with other random trash like receipts, a mask, etc. The trunk was full of some sort of mud or grease and, along with the rest of the car, covered in dirt and dust. The windows, doors, controls were all full of smudges and showed no signs of being disinfected or even wiped with a wet rag. But it gets worse, this model of car has tiny windows and visibility is a nightmare. To make that worse, the car had some kind of dealership writing, "lot #3..." melted into the windshield on the drivers' side resulting in even worse field of vision. Lastly, I was told on pickup, after I noted that the return time was not what I had booked (10am versus 8PM), I could bring the car back anytime. After arriving late at night after 12 hours on the road, I found no dropbox for the keys and no where to park the car (even the sidewalk was cluttered with returned rental cars). I had to take more time off of work to return the car this morning, and I was, of course, charged for an extra day. I can't imagine having a worse experience renting a car. At least if I'd been turned away I could have rented a car from somewhere else.

Pros:

When the car I reserved is not there; when after waiting for 45 minutes I have to ask to learn that there are five people ahead of me and that they do not have cars for any of them either; when all three employees disappear for long periods of time; when after one hour I give up, which forces me to cancel out-of-town plans I have made for Labor Day weekend, plans that required reservations and deposits that I have now lost for good? THERE WAS NOTHING ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE THAT I LIKED. I AM INCENSED. WHAT IS THE POINT OF MAKING RESERVATIONS?

Cons:

ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER. YES, THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS AWFUL. BUT THE FACT THAT I RESERVED A CAR TO RENT AND UPON ARRIVAL, AND AFTER ONE HOUR OF WAITING, THAT CAR IS NOWHERE TO BE FOUND? THAT IS THE MOST BASIC EXPECTATION OF RENTING A CAR, AND YOU FAILED MISERABLY. TO MY CONSIDERABLE EXPENSE.

I reached there to find out that they didn’t have any cars left. Why would you book people when you know you won’t have cars. If you don’t have cars then atleast do the courtesy to call and notify ahead of time. It can ruin trips. Had to wait for almost half an hour for a customer to bring back the car and then they gave us the car with half the tank. On top of that they never have the kind of car available that was in the original booking. I booked a Sedan this time and I got a giant RAM truck with lot less fuel efficiency thereby costing me more for the trip. I think this should be fixed.
