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.

Loved the new location in downtown San Francisco that I discovered through this rental. The customer service was super friendly (and the rep and I even had the same birthday!). Loved the blue color of the Hyundai rental too. Car was also very clean and comfortable with plenty of trunk space to accommodate my friend's luggage from overseas. Since I was returning the car "after hours," I had to navigate the garage and also the drop box for the key. It was dark. Good thing the rep was down in the garage otherwise I would not have found my way to the parking area, drop box for the key or the way out of the garage. There should be more signs and better lighting but otherwise, everything else was really great. Thank you!

Friendly staff, quick pick up and drop off, clean facilities, accommodated despite not having the exact car ordered. Very pleased with overall experience

Hunter, Jul 2020

KAYAK

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.

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

We were so happy with the Mazda mid size SUV! We might have to shop to buy one! Excellent gas mileage, smooth ride and lots of space.

I appreciated ordering the car online. I got a call the day before telling me that they would not likely have the vehicle, and that I would have to find another driver to have two vehicles. The vehicle was available, but instead of a 15 seater, it had room for 11, causing me to get another vehicle. I used the van for scouts, and it reeked of cigarette smoke and made me dizzy while driving it. I could not adjust the driver's seat properly, and I asked one of the agents to assist me when I got in the van, and he basically told me to adjust it myself when he checked the van. I had to hold my arms out the entire time in order to drive the vehicle. When I returned the van, I had a difficult time with the agent when I expressed these issues, and she said that she understood but I needed to pay the full amount, and did not forward me to a manager when I asked. I don't see myself ever renting from this system again.
