Cons:

The vehicle was filthy outside and inside. Cup holders had dried food in them, mud and sand on seats and human hair throughout the vehicle. My teenage sons were appalled - which is says it all. I complained and asked for another vehicle, but there weren't any in the size we needed. Disappointed.

May 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

I was told hours before my trip that the large SUV that I had rented was not available. I was given a mini van and that was my only option. I even called their customer service and the woman on the phone spoke to me like I was trying to get something for free. IF I WANTED TO DRIVE AROUND IN A MINI VAN, I WOULD HAVE RENTED A MINI VAN. The Hertz front desk seemed rude and uninvolved in the customerexperience. This ruined my trip before it even started. I will never rent from Hertz again.

Cons:

Everything! From fulfilling the correct rental car contract to the customer service I was provided.
