KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Temple

  • If you plan to visit Temple, several places in and outside of the city are worth visiting. However, you need a convenient means of transportation to help you get to some of those destinations. Although you can reach some places via public transportation, others are located far apart, making public transportation unreliable. In that case, getting a car rental in Temple is the best way to explore the city’s top attractive areas and nearby destinations. For instance, with your Temple car rentals, you can conveniently visit places such as Bent Tree RV Ranch and Shertom Boarding Kennels, 51 and 48 miles from the city center respectively.
  • Suppose you're flying into Temple. You will land at Killeen-Fort Hood Regional Airport (GRK). Take advantage of the many car rental agencies at the airport to get your car. Popular car rental agencies include Easirent, Hertz, Avis, Enterprise, and Thrifty. All the rental companies have their counters at the airport terminal located at the baggage claim on the lower level. Booking your Temple car rentals online saves you the inconvenience of long queues at the rental counters.
  • Driving a Temple car rental is generally manageable due to well-established roads. They are spacious with properly marked lanes. Drivers are generally less impatient and follow traffic rules strictly. They drive on the right side of the road and pass on the left. When driving your car rentals in Temple, be sure to abide by the traffic regulations, including the posted speed limits. You shouldn't have alcohol in your system when driving car rentals in Temple because the city has a zero-tolerance policy on drinking and driving.
  • Like other cities in Texas, Temple experiences considerable traffic delays during rush hours. Typically, weekday rush hours run from 7:00 am to 9:00 am, and the evening rush hours start at 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm. Do not drive your Temple car rentals during these hours unless it's urgent. Populated areas such as commuter zones, narrow streets, and business zones are worth avoiding during these hours.

    The best place to park your car rentals in Temple is downtown because, in addition to offering multiple parking options, downtown gives you convenient accommodations, eateries, and accessibility to the freeway. Some top parking spots worth considering include 135II Self-Storage, Clements Driveline Parking Lot Stripping, Leon's Wrecker Services, and U-Haul-Killeen. But if you want to avoid the stress of looking for a parking spot, consider booking a hotel with parking because they’ll offer free parking when residing on their property.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

EVERYTHING! First my reservation got switched to an office (Copperas Cove) that wasn't open on the day I was suppose to pick up my rental. Then I called the original office (Killeen) to have it switched back and make sure they had my car at the correct pick up point. Not only did the Killeen office not have my reservation information, but they didn't even have the size vehicle I reserved! Then they told me the only thing they could do about it was hope someone turned in my type of vehicle in time. No attempt to find one and have it brought from another office or anything. No customer service, no remorse for the inconvenience, a total lack of curtousies. I will never be using Enterprise again if I can help it.

Pros:

The price and type of car was perfect for what I needed it for. I got great gas mileage and the car performed well. I was totally satisfied with the car and the way the employees treated me. No hidden fees and they offered to take me back home, but I had a friend to pick me up.

Cons:

I had an appointment to pick up the car at 9am, I arrived at 8:50am, but didn't get the car until 9:45. I wasn't the only one wait to get their car at the schedule time. Other than that, its a great Enterprise car rental location.

Cons:

I had reserved a car that was listed as a Ford Escort, or similar. No big deal. My beater car is an escort and it has a big trunk. When I arrived to pick up my rental, they had two cars to choose from. Both of which were hatchbacks with very limited space for luggage/cargo. I expressed my disappointment with them considering there were probably 50 cars on the Hertz lot, but none of them were for rental as they were for sale. They couldn't even upgrade me to a larger vehicle because there weren't any available. I declined the rental and asked for my $36 insurance refund and they said I would have to go through Kayak to get the refund. I know it was Thanksgiving weekend, and cars were scarce, but they should advertise if it is a hatchback or a regular car.

Couldn't pick up car because of Hertz credit card policies. Lack of friendliness, lack of compassion, lack of interest in taking care of the customer.
