All good except they wanted to give me a different class — a minivan. But, they finally found a small SUV.Reviewed Apr 22 2026

Really liked the SUV I received. Price ended up a little higher than expected, though. Was able to get most of the overcharge fixed when dropping the car off.Reviewed Apr 22 2026

They had trouble finding the right car for me. At first they gave me a very large SUV that I didn't want. I was going to take it anyway, but the paperwork was wrong, so the final gate guard would not let me drive away. Then a man from Avis fixed the rental and gave me a good intermediate SUV (Mazda CX-5) that worked out great.Reviewed Apr 22 2026

The line to pick up the rental was unreal. Under-staffed, and it took well over an hour to pick up the vehicle. And the cost was too much for a small SUV.Reviewed Apr 21 2026
