Had an issue with the car several days into our vacation. Drove to the rental place and they had us in a new vehicle within 10 minutes. No hassle. No stress.
The first car felt like it had been in an accident so I returned it . The second car was brand new but it smelled like marijauna but I wasn’t sure what the smell was until I found a bud leaf on the floor of the back seat . So I have mixed thoughts about this experience! But overall I know life happens and my needs was met
No shuttle from the airport to the enterprise location. Advertised as off airport location however did not state that a shuttle or ride was available. If I was disabled or unable to walk 2.5 miles in unknown location and conditions, I would of not purchased/reserved the vehicle. In this instance, I had a disabled traveler with me who was in a wheel chair. There is no side walks on the main highway as I found out while paying more for an Uber ride to an enterprise location. My disabled traveler remained at the airport due to a compact Uber car that was unable to store a wheelchair. First for me in my entire life where any rental car company says “its the only way to get to our location, its normal”. At least advertise the stipulation on your site. Its decieving and unethical.

My car was supposed to have a full tank, but it only had 7/8 (about 2 gallons short).
The agent working the Alamo counter was very sweet. Her name was Rose. She was awesome. She made the car rental process so easy. Ty so much Rose! We had a great time in Hilo.

The car costed about 2x more than we originally intended because of the price of a child booster seat + fees + additional coverage that I wasn't sure I needed. It was appalling how much we spent for the car - would could have literally purchased a used car for the same price for a 9 day trip.
Everything was OUTSTANDING! Especially the Customer Service Representative, Miss Ani! She is Wonderful!!!

The price was right but I don't think I got the car class that I reserved. I booked a Full-size, and was given a Hyundai Elantra which I believe is a Mid-size. The car was FILTHY! Dirty inside and outside, there were even what I think were cigarette burns in the seat cushion. There was only one person working the desk, and the line was long by the time I got my keys. We only needed the car for about 6 or 7 hours that day, so it did the job.
