KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Woodland

  • Car rentals in Woodland eliminate the need to rely on public transportation schedules or wait for rideshare services. You can easily access various destinations, like Historic Downtown Woodland, the Woodland Opera House, the Heidrick Ag History Center, and the unique Reiff's Gas Station Museum, without relying on somewhat limited public transportation options. Rental cars offer ample space to store luggage, souvenirs, and other belongings, ensuring a comfortable journey without worrying about limited baggage allowances.
  • If you're looking for Woodland car rentals at an airport, Sacramento International Airport (SMF) is an excellent option. All major rental car companies are conveniently situated at the rental car terminal right on the airport grounds. Getting to the rental car area is a breeze, as the on-airport rental car shuttle runs regularly, stopping at designated points on the ground-level curbs outside both airport terminals, with a short ride of less than 5 min to the car lots.
  • Driving in car rentals in Woodland offers a unique experience with the town's distinct characteristics and aspects. Woodland retains its small-town charm, making driving more relaxed and less congested compared to larger cities. The city's historic downtown area features tree-lined streets and well-preserved buildings, creating a picturesque setting while driving through the heart of Woodland. As part of California's agricultural heartland, driving in Woodland often means encountering scenic countryside views and farmlands. Woodland is home to various wildlife, and drivers might encounter animals like rabbits, birds, or even deer while traveling through certain areas.
  • Weekdays from around 7:00 am to 9:00 am can be busy when people commute to work or drop kids off at school. Main roads like East Main Street, West Main Street, and Gibson Road may experience heavier traffic during this time. Weekdays, from approximately 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm, are when people head home from work. Similar main roads may be congested during this period.

Cons:

Without consent or notification, my credit card was charged $200 when I picked up the car, then charged the $54 rental when it was returned the next day, along with another $200 charge. I contacted the number on the Budget receipt, who said those charges were "authorizations" and would come off. It's been 6 days, and still no pending transaction reversing the $400 in additional charges. They're also showing up in my credit card detailed billing as "purchase", not "authorization".

Pros:

Car (Ford Fusion hybrid) was very fuel efficient

Cons:

Car was difficult to start - written instructions needed Windshield was dirty Hertz employee up sold to more different and more expensive car Received voice mail when called for assistance

6.0 Okay

Apr 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

The Yardis had only 80 miles on it, and was in mint condition. The people at the Davis location were very nice.

Cons:

I had to wait 45 minutes for the car to arrive from the Sacramento airport, and it arrived with only a gallon of gas in it instead of a full tank. Though they said I could return it empty, the vagaries of the trip led me to returning it half full, and thus I gave them $15 worth of gasoline.

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

They did not have the size car we reserved. Our only option was to drive the rental car to another location and exchange it. When we artived the new location found a tiny chip on the windshield we overlooked on the initiak wslk around, so they said we had to fork out money or file an insurance claim before they gave us the car we originally asked for! Im still mad thinking about it!

Pros:

I reserved the car and expected there to be a car for me. Hertz called two hours before I was to pick up and said basically "we don't have a car for you....screw you.....we might have one in a couple days. And now I know that if you dont PAY for it when you reserve it....you really have nothing. Worst experience ever. Ended up costing my twice as much with Budget. $600

KAYAK

Pros:

My review is for Enterprise, NOT KAYAK. Kayak is great.

Cons:

However, when I showed up to get the car, which I needed for a job interview near where I'm moving, my reservation was acknowledged and I was told "we don't have enough cars to fill the reservations." I left without the car and had to miss my interview. When I called corporate, they contacted the store I went to and were told that, actually, no one has come into the store and they don't remember having a conversation me. Their system showed that there were cars and that I had one reserved. But they continued to deny that I had even been in there. Very ridiculous, unprofessional, and I was not given any resolution.

KAYAK

Cons:

In general I am very unhappy with the service, and do no intend to rent a car at enterprise again. The credit card device wasn't working properly, I've mentioned several times that my credit card was ok, but the attendant was very rude, and gave me the impression that I was lying about it. At the end we use another credit card device and worked.

8.8 Very good

Jul 2016

KAYAK

Pros:

Pick up and drop off was very quick, I was in and out in less than 15 min both times. I paid $180 total for a week long rental of an economy car, which I thought was a very good value.

Cons:

Economy car is economy. No remote door locks, very tiny car, lots of road noise, but what do you expect when renting this cheaply? On the plus side I ended up with a car that had XM radio. Usually this would cost an extra $6 per day, but I didn't ask for it so I didn't pay for it.

6.0 Okay

No issues with the car itself. But, I was super surprised when the agent tried to pass off an additional 100 bucks as drop-off changes. Fortunately, I noticed while he was asking me to sign off. He did not relent until I actually showed the quote and said I had already agreed on the amount. Then he conveniently blamed it on the system and said it wasn't updated with the offer. In fact, he took credit for getting the waiver! Not done and is extremely unprofessional. Am sure they are passing on these additional charges to gullible customers. Something you need to seriously take up with the rental car firm - they cannot try and cheat customers.
