May 2021
Pros:
Pickup & drop off was relatively painless. Neither rep demonstrated a welcoming attitude. All business. Pickup rep was eating while helping the customer ahead of me at pickup.Cons:
A quick review of operating functions would have been helpful. I am a senior citizen not used to the new electronic wizardry. My wife & I spent a few minutes doing that at pickup and later again with headlight & windshield wiper settings. Picking up a vehicle and being thrust into traffic with rainy weather is not my idea of fun.10.0 Excellent
May 2021
Pros:
Everything went very smoothly. I was shocked that I didn't stand in any lines to talk to someone.2.0 Mediocre
May 2021
Pros:
Nothing- see belowCons:
This was the worst rental car experience of my life. I got to the airport and was told that my reservation was cancelled with no warning! Apparently Alamo had sold out all their cars. This was a major inconvenience for me, as I ultimately had to spend $270 getting to and from my destination, instead of the $120 I had paid. If I had also known this before arriving I could have also tried making different arrangements, but also found out that everyone else was sold out by the time I got there too. This was a massive inconvenience and I will never use Alamo again, and it made me seriously question my use of Kayak as well8.0 Excellent

May 2021
Pros:
Quick process. Showed up they had my reservation they were ready to go took me less than 5 minutes to get my vehicle. Upon returning, staff saw I had oversized item and instead of making me transfer to a shuttle they drove me to the airport in my vehicle. Very much appreciated!Cons:
No improvements needed. Everything went as planned!6.0 Good
May 2021
Cons:
The check-out process took almost 2 hours. There was a line a mile long and only 3 people working the counter while 3-4 others twiddled their thumbs in preferred area.8.0 Excellent
May 2021
Cons:
Only one person left to check in over 12 customers. Waited almost an hour to get checked in. Car was not clean but was the only one available. I was told the car wash was broken. Disappointed because I was attending a funeral with family.4.0 Okay
Apr 2021
Pros:
Unfortunately I didn't have a good experience with any of this process at the Hobby Payless/AVIS location. I hate leaving bad reviews however each part of the process was full of problems and deceiving tactics.Cons:
They had no vehicles ready to pick up that were in the size that I had a confirmation number for. They use this excuse to force you into having to pay to upgrade to another vehicle. I was asked to either wait (an unknown amount of time) or pay 20.00 a day more for a truck. Then after you agree to the new price they tell you they will email you all the paperwork. So you leave with no proof of cost and absolutely no paperwork. I logged in to my credit card account later that day and noticed I was charged 540.00. My original rental was confirmed as a full size car at 310.00 and that included the taxes and fees. So if you add the 20.00 each day you will get 60.00+ a few dollars for additional taxes. So let's add 20.00 for those. So it should have been 390.00. The drop off was easy and I spoke to the lady checking me back in and asked her if I would be charged an additional hour because I arrived at 11:09 and I was supposed to be back at 11:00. She said absolutely not. She knew I had to wait on 2 cars to figure out how to return there car and make their way into the lot. They is why I was 9 minutes late. She even said that she would make sure I wouldn't be charged for the additional hour. Guess what..... I got charged for 31.00 additional dollars for the hour.2.0 Mediocre

Customer said they tried to reach me and let me know they didn’t have the car I reserved. I had previously called enterprise prior to arrival and confirmed the reservation which they did.

Apr 2021
Pros:
The pick-up and drop-off was a smooth as I could imagine. Especially when looking around at how the other providers were operating.Cons:
I got swindled by the associate checking me in. When choosing refuel options, I was shown a price per gallon that I would pay for them to fill up the tank. They "forgot" to mention that I would be charged for a full tank of gas at that price, regardless of amount of fuel used. Definitely tainted the image I previously had of Enterprise.2.0 Mediocre

Pros:
The drop off was the only easy part of this whole processCons:
I stood in line for over two hours to get to the counter. The guy at the counter said that they didn’t use third party apps so he couldn’t honor the price on my reservation. When I called the next day to extend my rental one more day, the lady said that she couldn’t do anything over the phone and that I would have to go to a thrifty counter and do it there. The only thrifty counter that I found was in the airport and that was another hour and a half wait to be able to extend my rental. I will NEVER use Thrifty, Dollar or Hertz again.6.0 Good
