Nikki at Alamo customer service in the airport provided exceptionally good service related to our damaged tire/tire replacement!! Otherwise the entire experience was exactly what I expect from car rental - easy to pickup and dropoff, no concerns, top quality vehicle at affordable price. Thank you Alamo!

There was no line, I made a change to my reservation at the desk with no problem at all. The attendant was kind, knowledgeable and helpful! I would definitely use Alamo again and suggest to others to do so.
Tried to rent a truck. As soon as my selection was confirmed they called me back and offered me a mini van. I had no use for a mini van, so she said if I were patient I could get a truck next week. She never cancelled my booking and I had to call enterprise to cancel. Enterprise said they would search their database and find me a truck and call me back within the hour. I never received a call.

At pickup they did not have they requested vehicle but something much larger / less fuel efficient. The person asked if I’d take it if they marked fuel out at zero to save a little on gas. I said yes. When I checked the invoice it noted fuel full. Not a big deal - I paid for the fuel I used but if I hadn’t checked I’d have paid the much higher return rate based on her statement to me.

Reservation was for full size car, didn't have available so was upgraded to a larger car (less m.p.g. but preferred due to number of passengers) for same price. Didn't pay attention to initialing contract before setting out but upon returning car realized was charged $75 more than reservation, mentioned that to the receiving agent which apologized and stated she couldn't do anything then (Saturday) but would take care of it on Monday, which to my relief she did and saved the whole experience. Don't know why/how the other agent got it wrong, just glad she was there.
The receptionist was very helpful even though I was in a rush and stressed. She quickly got my car and also calmed me down while she got my information.

I was so pleased with everything! The rental car agent was awesome. He helped me with an accidental booking at the wrong location and got me a car at the airport right away instead. The car was clean, comfortable and even nicer than I expected. Return was easy. The price was reasonable for the city and length of stay!

Rental went great. Drive dependability was good. But when I RETURNED the vehicle at my destination I was charged 3times my agreed rate which drove my checking account hundreds into the negative. The Avis rep only said it's silly and I should be refunded all that in 2-3 days. Avis, your billing practices are both ille and unethical. Never again.

Comfortable car with amazing gas mileage for a mon-hybrid. Rental process was easy at a good price. Our only frustration was with tire sensor going off often, even after filling air to specs.

The only good thing they had going was they provided water for people waiting. On the down side they did not have cars available, was over an hour wait and charged much more over and above the kayak price. In Australia if you book hire cars online you have insurance included and no more to pay at the outlet. My experience so far with USA car rental is they just charge what they want on top with various extra fees, insurance and taxes. Overall very disappointed.

The van smelled like smoke that had been poorly covered up by a cleaning agent and it never went away. We had 3 young kids in the car and they complained every time we got in that it smelled. When we were picking up the van it took about 30 min to get the van. Also, there was another family behind us in line and they were also getting a van. We were talking to the girl at the counter when they brought 2 vans up but they let the other family choose their van first which is how we ended up with the van that smelled bad. Overall it was a poor experience and I wouldn't rent a car from Dollar again.

VERY long line to get the car and then another 30+ minutes for them to find a car for the people waiting. They offered a Telsa, which is great. I asked about how the recharge works and they had no idea how to show me so I passed on the car. They should know how each and every car works to help clients. Employees were literally sitting around waiting for cars to show up with a very long line of clients waiting. Check out guy never acknowledged me, simply grabbed the contract from my hand and then waved me through. Overall, poor customer service.
One individual trying to take care of a whole long line of customers took too long.

I reserved the reservation for pick up @ 10 am. We arrived @ the location for pick up prior to opening & had to wait until 10 am. There was only one employee working @ the counter & I thought we could have picked up the car sooner. It looks like you need more help @ this location. The other suggestion I would like to make is upon returning the vehicle to The Wynn hotel we did not receive instructions on where to go. We stopped in Valet & we're directed to the 2nd floor in the self parking garage. We did this & we're told it's on the 1st floor. A lot of running around to return the car especially when u are trying to get to the airport. I would suggest your team member give specific directions on where to return the vehicle @ the beginning especially when you're in a busy city like Las Vegas.

My first time using Hertz. I will never use them again! I reserved a mid size SUV for the time and location that best fit a number of important things an appointments I had scheduled for the day. At the scheduled time I traveled to the pickup location, and sat patiently for nearly 40 minutes, for my turn to be called up to the counter. Upon stating that I had a reservation, I was told "Oh, we don't have any vehicles available". Caught a little off guard, I again stated, there must be some mistake, I made a reservation. Again being told in a matter of fact way, we have no cars. The rental agent then turns around and picks up a set of keys and says< "well we do have a full size SUV, that will be an upgrade and it will be $60 more per day". So I said< " hang on a second, I made a reservation for a standard SUV for $60 per day. You don't have any standard SUV"s but u have a full size, you are going to upgrade me for free right? He said no, it will be $60 a day more. He then leaned over to the agent next to him and said, can we do a free upgrade? To which the rental agent said, " we don't have any cars, we need that one". And so I was told "sorry, we dont have any cars. I can put you on a waiting list if you want. This screwed up all the plans I had for the day, since I was renting a car for my necessity and not because I had some free time so, Oh, I know what, let me go rent a car. Hertz didnt care one bit that I had a bunch of things scheduled for that day. Not one care what so ever. I will never use Hertz again.
I had never heard of your company before this trip; would now recommend. The staff member who checked us in (“The Mark”) was friendly and efficient!! He talked with us about where we were going and gave us recommendations, which turned out great!! I have never experienced that from a car rental agent and really appreciated it!!

I booked a car pretty last-minute but the price was great, and then I got upgraded to a BMW. Staff was friendly and it was a quick pick-up and drop-off process. Would definitely book with Sixt again in Phx!

Don't book with SIXT if there's even a 1% chance you'll need to cancel. It was the most infuriating process ever to cancel. Their website (there's absolutely no human to talk to) kept saying I needed to go through kayak to cancel. Kayak's website (also no human) says you have to go through SIXT. Neither was taking responsibility. After 8 emails SIXT finally cancelled it, which showed they were indeed the ones able to cancel it!!! Took way too much time. Don't recommend.

Customer service at rental check- in and cehicke handover was the best I ever received from any car rental company. Great staff in Phoenix Sky Harbor. Also I was upgraded to a nicer car with no extra charge. Very satisfied!!!
Several dozen people were told that they ran out of cars and that we would have to either wait 2 plus hours for returns or go to another rental agency. This is complete failure on management to plan, especially for an airport location. I ended up paying DOUBLE for my rental because of their incompetencies.

Pick up process at Phoenix Rental Car Centre is terrible … the wait at counter is ALWAYS too long - with not enough staff… Once you actually get to the counter, the sign up process seems too complicated and takes a long time, and finally when you go downstairs to pick up your car, we had to wait another full HOUR to get our car because there wasn’t enough vehicles to supply the demand… I wish this was only a single occurrence but it has happened the 5 times we’ve gone through Phoenix rental car centre -

Idk if it was because they had offered a super awesome, can't-miss, out of this world deal for the weekend we rented, but the line at the Thrifty rental counter was outrageous. No other rental counter had near the amount of business. I actually started looking online to rent at a different company while standing in line because the line was long and SLOW. I waited in line for close to 20 minutes and I wasn't even inside the Thrifty counter area when the Dollar counter employees invited us over to their counter. That doubled the number of employees renting cars to customers. Look, the company knows how many cars are going out that day. Plan to get the Dollar counter to help sooner. When the line starts snaking out of the Thrifty area and around seating areas and crossing in front of two other counters, maybe you waited too long to start pulling people out and sending them to the Dollar counter.

They were out of cars. None- there were about 60 people there that night and they did not get their vehicles. I paid a high upgrade fee to get a Shelby mustang convetible - it was the only car they had left. I was expecting to pay about $200 for a rental and I ended up spending about $900. It was a horrendously suboptimal experience. The car, however, was nice, but it would have rather been able to rent and pay for what I needed, not for a fancy sports car.
