My experience was ok. They didn’t have a full size car that I wanted so I got “upgraded” to a small suv, but that is not really an upgrade if the full economy is higher than what I wanted to have. It was only me and my wife. Also the vehicle was really dirty on the outside, the steering wheel was sticky and there was trash and food debris between the driver side seat and center console.

They called right before they closed the evening before I was picking up the vehicle to say they didn’t have the vehicle I had reserved (a minivan). It took an hour to talk to an actual human who said no minivans were available in the entire area and that she was very sorry. Thank you, Enterprise, for helping me out of a real problem. I will never rent from Hertz again

I went online the day before I needed a work van. I reserved the van. The next morning, I recieved an email explaining they did not have any box trucks. I didn't order a box truck. I rented a van. So I called. The not so nice person told me they didn't have any vans at that location and all their box trucks were busy receiving recall upgrades. This person had no customer empathy whatsoever. Couldn't wait to get me off the phone. I had to call my customer and tell them I couldn't do their job because the rental place didn't have any vehicles, even though they reserved one for me. What a disappointment.

Inflation in Biden‘s America is causing me not to be able to ride cars. I am praying for President Trump to be returned to office in the next election so gasoline, car rentals, car purchases and everything else can go back to normal.

I did not end up renting from Payless rental because the lack of car selection. I reserved a SUV class & when I got their to pick it up it was a crossover. That was the only car available. That did not fit us for our needs so we decided to go with a different rental company. Rental car companies should be more transparent, this will save time & money because the renter's know exactly what they are getting. The customer service at Payless wasn't great either & also played a part in the decision not to use them.

Car had a heavy dose of Febreeze, but tobacco smoke was still noticeable. I had reserved a Kia Soul and was given a Toyota Tacoma. So much for good gas economy on a long trip. There was trash in the bed of the pickup when I took it. No assistance, just, here's the keys, the parking lot is two blocks away. Good luck. Probably never using them again, TBH.

Everything was great, and the vehicle, which was an upgrade, was amazing. However, the car had a pretty bad cigarette smell that just didn't go away. Other than this, kudos to the great service at the Dover location, where I picked up the vehicle.

Comfortable and clean car. Easy pickup and drop off. I returned the vehicle with a full tank (also noted on the return invoice) and was still charged a $17.99 refueling fee. I called customer service and asked for a refund of the fee since they didn’t have to refuel the car. They promptly gave me a refund of the refueling fee. Good experience otherwise but it’s annoying to have to deal with the unexpected fee.

First car smelled like strong chemicals. Made me nauseated. Called the local place they claimed their system was down at 9a and couldn't switch out the car until 1p. Had to drive 45 minutes to switch out. When I did they gave me the worst car on the lot. Philadelphia Airport is worst. Rude workers, Dirty car, car making noises, scratches and a dent. Horrible.
