Windshield wipers were awful…made driving in rain unsafe During pick up, the rep said there was no street address and if I didn’t drop a pin I would never find the rental return. Alamo sent a drop off email with perfect directions. Unnecessary anxiety. Drop was fast, friendly and efficient.Reviewed Apr 19 2025

Horrible. They lie and say they’re at the airport when really it’s 20 minutes away. There was nothing informing me I had to use a credit card. They ruined my trip to bury my dead friendReviewed Dec 8 2024

Pros:Drop off easy and fast, the staff was great.Cons:We take a Toyota hatchback, overall was great regarding the fuel economy, the cleaning inside and out, but the seats are so hard that for 3 days of driving we have to use a pillow.Reviewed May 17 2021

10.0
Pros:Absolutely no pressure for upgrading or anything else when I checked in. Very friendly staff & couldn't have asked more.Cons:There seemed to be a miscalculation with the airport tax. I'd recommend really looking at the paperwork before you pay. For me, it was a little over $10 difference, but for others with a more expensive rental, may be much more. GOOD thing is that they were more interested in figuring it out than with arguing with me. Did not get to the bottom of it, but they did offer me a discount for a second driver that made it about even.Reviewed Dec 30 2020
