They overcharged me for geo fence and that was not mentioned at the time of booking. You all should better job of mentioning this on booking rather than adding in somewhere in term and condition. I felt like getting changed on what was not suppose to be for unlimited mile car. The car also was not maintained it was showing oil change message and brakes were not good either.Reviewed Jul 9 2025

We waited over 45 mins for the shuttle that’s supposed to come every 10/15 mins. When calling they just kept saying it was on the way. If I would have known how long it would take I would have taken an Uber to save valuable vacation time. Once in the office it took I er 45 mins to be in a vehicle. Return was super easy.Reviewed Jul 1 2025

If I say No EXTRA insurance that’s what it means. I was quoted $145 for the rental. When I checked out the charge was $267. Something about some extra insurance that’s you’re forced to take even if you have full coverage. They were definitely not clear on this. I would’ve said no immediately. It’s bait and switch all day. Never again.Reviewed Jun 26 2025

Nothing as a black man I was subject to racism at the highest. After my conformation on line with the same credit card and license I used two days earlier at JFK they ran my credit again and doubled the price of my rental so I didn't get the car any more I have been renting since the eighty's this was my worse experience ever.Reviewed Jun 25 2025

Ended up needing a last minute rental after an evening flight into Orlando. I couldn’t find anything available anywhere but luckily my teenager found Ace available through Kayak and saved the day. The wait for shuttle pickup was so long we weren’t even sure it was coming but this was my first time waiting on a shuttle from the airport to rental place so maybe that’s normal. We ended up getting a Lyft from the airport to Ace which was an extra expense but it was probably a good thing because when the shuttle came there were lots of people and the line was even longer. The line when I arrived, prior to the shuttle that I would have been on was long and moved kind of slowly. However, my time at the counter was quick, easy and pleasant. The car itself was great, no issues there at all. Drop off was a breeze but did have a 10 min wait for the shuttle to the airport which was fine. Overall, I felt Ace was a good value and good service and I’m extremely grateful for the last minute availability! For me personally though, I think I’d rather pay more to rent from the airport for the convenience of it instead of shuttling back and forth especially with kids in tow.Reviewed Jun 23 2025
