Pros:

Premium car

Cons:

You lied to me about the price. I was charged more at the rental company, so I called and was told not to worry. But I received my bill yesterday and the charge is the higher one.

Pros:

The staff really made our day!! Micka and Miguel were the friendliest and most sincerely helpful rental car staff I've ever had the pleasure of interacting with. They went above and beyond to help us, even parking the car for us when we had trouble finding the return entrance! Fantastic service.

Pros:

Staff was efficient in processing car return

Cons:

While the office was easy to find, the drop-off spot was very unclear. They have a sign on the front window that the car return is behind the building. I drove all the way around the block and saw no signage for where to return the car. I had to park at a meter in front of the office, and go in to ask. The agent showed me a photo of where the drop off spot was. It is in a public parking garage. I still never saw any signage about Alamo car rental return, until after I drove into the garage and took a parking voucher to open the barrier gate.

Pros:

The car was nice - worked out well for the drive

Cons:

The sales agent spent my entire checkin working to up-sell me and to my knowledge upgraded me to a bigger SUV when I booked the largest one I could to a cost. The car smelled like weed the entire time too.

Pros:

was really fast and easy to pick up and drop off the car!

Cons:

the car was really dirty.. it had phlegm in many parts inside the car.. really disgusting.. And Kayak charged me 11 Dollars for a car insurance that Enterprise didn’t recognize.. so I had to pay another car insurance.. disappointing. Another thing, there were not so many options for luxury cars, actually was only one option and It wasn’t the one I choose.. they gave me a Camaro intead of a Cadillac but considering the “..or similar” .. was fine

Pros:

Car is quite new. Pick-up and Drop-off were easy and fast.

Cons:

They just wash a car right when I picked-up. It would be good if they did it before, I've booked it a month advance. I had bad experience about the care but it's not because of Enterprise. The car was breaking-in and I've lost my stuffs.

Good customer service on both ends and easy pick up and drop off. Biggest disappointment was receiving vehicle with 7/8 gas tank…so impossible to return at same level. Ended up returning with full tank and thus, paying for your company’s inability to provide a full tank. Felt cheated. Also, vehicle was filthy inside.

We rented a specific car type for our costal California trip. When our car experienced a flat tire we had to trade in for a different car or pay for the repairs ourselves and try for reimbursement. Without knowing anything about the area and it being after hours we had limited options. Moving to a new car was not very convenient and it took away from the rest of the trip. None of the staff even seemed concerned or apologetic for the interruption and not sympathetic to try and assist me with finding the same type of car.

Cons:

Both pick up and drop off locations were confusing in terms of where to enter, where to park. Signage and a person directing traffic would improve the experience a lot

KAYAK

Pros:

The San Francisco location did a great job of getting us the car on time and helping us add insurance and drivers.

Cons:

Drop-off at the Las Vegas airport was horrible. We returned the car with a full tank of gas, and I noticed that we were charged an additional $50 for gas. The workers were extremely rude and unprofessional about it, and moved slowly on the resolution on purpose when they knew we were in a hurry.

Pros:

I loved the car

Cons:

The staff did nothing to make sure I was comfortable with the car during pick up, and the back right window never closed all the way. The staff said I would not encounter any tolls during my route, however I did and was therefore not prepared.
