had to wait 1.5 hours in line at the front desk. Had to wait again to get actual car. Random unclear fees on final receipt. Car needed new brake pads and vibrated badly on braking.Reviewed 2 Jan. 2023

Major upsell at desk. Ended up being charged for additional insurance when I declined it at booking. Kept pressuring me to get a bigger/better car.Reviewed 2 Dec. 2022

Love the rental center. Desk attendant was great considering the late hour. My issue is that it has been more than 24 hours since I dropped the car off and I still don't have a final bill emailed to me.Reviewed 21 Nov. 2022

The highlight of our experience was on rental car return when the return manager noticed we had young children and eagerly offered to have us driven up to the airport departures rather than have to take the bus from the rental car area to the terminal with all our bgs and kids. The car itself was an uneven ride with what I suspect are some alignment issues.Reviewed 26 Oct. 2022

We were well taken care of after an initial hiccup of not knowing the dealer closed at 3:30 pm. We were forced to rent a car at full rate for the first night which was expensive. More communication about the closing time spills have been helpful. Also a phone number that reaches a person would be nice.Reviewed 23 Oct. 2022

booking early on Kayak website really saved money. I kept checking on various sites and they were at least $200-500 more especially as the trip dares got closer. We got the correct sized vehicle.Reviewed 19 Oct. 2022

The only issue we encountered was the very long line at time of pickup. They were understaffed given the volume of renters.Reviewed 12 Oct. 2022

I liked that I was able to get the car I actually booked. I didn’t like that my car smelled of smoke. I got switched around two different cars because the car they originally gave me was for sale (I’m not sure why it was still on the lot if it wasn’t rentable) I have had two bad experiences in the pickup line with this company. The line for pickup was over an hour wait after my scheduled pickup. Every car rental company in the pickup area had smooth lines that didn’t make you wait but 15min. Why was this rental company different? I don’t know. But it is very aggravating when you pay online ahead of time for pickup at a specific time and then it doesn’t happen. I believe the company needs to re-evaluate how the pickup process is done. Maybe have a line specifically for people with reservations??? Idk but that might actually be extremely beneficial?? Just maybe??Reviewed 4 Oct. 2022

Line was over an hour long to pick up car. Agent tried to up sell full size when we had said no. Confusion on toll device by all customers led to longer pick up time as agents had to explain optionsReviewed 29 Sep. 2022
