arrived at scheduled pick up time, and they were closed with nobody answering phones until two days later. What would be better is to not have pick up scheduled when they're closed!

Pros:

Yes the Associate that issued the car was excellent, but think you need to have another person working this facility as the man was doing everything, cleaning cars, taking cars back in from return and issuing cars out. Its WAY to much for such a BIG Company as Avis to show this to Customers.

8.4 Very good

Apr 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

Renting the car from Herndon VA rather than IAD airport was definitely the way to go savings hundreds of dollars. There were no lines at this rental location with friendly service people.

Cons:

The gas tank was only at 7/8 full level. In my opinion the gas tank should have been full as Avis probably charged (or should have) the previous renter for this.

Pros:

Pickup and drop off was easy and very convenient. Martha, the staff at the front desk was very courteous and helpful as well.

Cons:

I would have expected no additional charges for dropping off the car at Dulles airport instead of Herndon, especially since I had rented the car for more than a month. However, because of the additional charge, I had to drop it off at Herndon instead of the airport.

Pros:

The budget office I used was in Herndon, VA. I'd reserved a compact car the week before and when I walked in to the office, I was the only customer. The agent who helped me was great. Got me in and out of the office in like 5 minutes. The car was a compact (Ford Focus?) and was clean, roomy enough for my needs and got good gas mileage. I kept it for a couple weeks, and when I returned it, I got the same level of customer service as before. (Actually, the same agent!) -For me, and this rental experience - I'll happily use this budget office again
