If they are going to give you an EV instead of what it said on the reservation, they need to give instructions. Finding charging stations was difficult and cost us money and time. Not happy at all!Reviewed Jul 4 2024

Since we booked with Kayak for the GRR airport we assumed the car would be at the airport. The car was offsite at a location with no shuttle which also closed at noon which was when our flight arrived. After standing in line at the airport desk for 20-30 minutes the clerk told us we had 20 minutes to make it to the other site before it closed... they were off by an hour. So after taking a cab to and back from the closed site we had to rebook a car. Which made us late to our destination. Which made me look irresponsible. Pretty bad experience all around.Reviewed Mar 28 2024
