Sep 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

Friendly staff, clean car, comfortable, and easy drop off.

2.0 Poor

May 2018

KAYAK

Cons:

Their airport office closed at 6pm and our outbound flight was cancelled within 15 minutes. There were stranded passengers who needed rental cars (including me) and no rental facility was open. Not helpful at all. Instead of saving a few $$ of payroll, Hertz should consider this and have some way for stranded passages who need cars to access them. I will not use Hertz ever again.

2.0 Poor

Mar 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

They never call me back or anything after I made the reservation. Please tell people when is their reservation open or not. I got there and they told me that didn't have enough cars, having a reservation 3 days before hand.

2.0 Poor

Mar 2017

KAYAK

Cons:

After charging my card and scheduling a pickup, I was told upon arriving that they were unable to rent me a car. I was told it would take 7-10 business days to get my money back, still waiting! NEVER RENT FROM HERTZ. Customer service rep was the rudest woman I've ever spoken to, when I asked to speak to a manager she transferred me to roadside assistance.

8.8 Very good

Feb 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

From the moment I got the quote online to the moment I returned the car I had a great experience. Employees at the Manhattan Regional Airport in Manhattan, Kansas, were professional and really knew what they were doing. The car was clean and ran well. My only complaint was the noise on the highway. It was difficult to even carry on a conversation. While I rented the cheapest car possible, it still was very irritating to have that loud noise for a 10 hour trip.

Cons:

The vehicle was cheap and light-weight. It was loud and lost traction a few times even though the road was clear.

6.8 Okay

Dec 2016

KAYAK

Pros:

The car itself was awesome, but it had a horrible overpowering cologne smell that wouldn't go away with fabreze or leaving the windows open on our whole trip.

Just so expensive lately. The location was open very small window of time which made pick up a little stressful, worrying if they’d close before I got there. Otherwise overall wonderful and quick pickup/drop off.

We booked a car last minute during the week of spring break. We were concerned they wouldn't have the car we needed so we called National at 10:30am on the morning of the scheduled pickup (3pm). They assured us everything was good. Drove 75 miles to pick up the car only to find out the reservation was canceled PRIOR to the 10:30am confirmation phone call. They didn't have the car we needed, and nothing comparable, and nobody thought to call us. We wasted 4 hours and they offered no alternate solutions... Very disappointed!!
