We had to figure out that you have to call the Ace customer service number to get a shuttle from the airport, only for us to be shuttled to a hotel where the Ace counter is inside, where we waited for 30 minutes at 10pm at night for no one to show up. We called repeatedly and no one answered. We called the customer service number for Ace and they could not reach anyone. We ended up being stranded at the hotel we were dropped off at and had to get a hotel overnight even though we were supposed to be driving out of town. The Ace owner called me and woke me up at 12:40am. I did not answer. The next morning we had to pay for an Uber across town to rent a car from enterprise. They did not have any available but gave us one anyway. The Ace owner, Steve, continued to text me over and over to apologize and try to make up for it but it was too little too late. It had already cost us a night in a hotel and missing seeing friends who had to leave Saturday morning. In addition to all of this, the Ace helpdesk was left completely unmanned with the lockbox for the car keys hanging wide open as well as the computer screen unlocked with customer information available to anyone who walked by. We spoke to a hotel employee who said they had never seen an Ace employee at that desk during any of their shifts, but had seen people come to get a car and have to get walked through, over the phone, how to check themselves out on the unlocked computer.

I rented a manager special for $179. That wasn’t exactly cheap for three days. The manager special came and it was a minivan for me one person. The car was absolutely filthy on the outside. I had to have it washed and clean before I could attend my Luncheon in Asheville. No one was there to assist in finding the car at the Asheville airport. What a mess it is there! You go from one end of the car rental trailer outdoors to the other to get the rental and then finding the car , do t arrive in the dark. no one is there to assist you.. You just aimlessly wonder around the parking lot asking other customers how they found their car. If you don’t Purchase all of the extras, the people at the counter aren’t very nice. You feel shuttled in and shuttled out like cattle. I was asked to sign a paper that there was no outside damage or blemishes to the car without even seeing the car/Minivan. I would never rent from Thrifty again.

The car was not cleaned when we picked it up. The back seat was full of dog hair and there was mud on the floor. We did not realize it until we had passengers sit in the back seat several days later. When I told the agent at drop off that the car wasn’t cleaned I was told I may be charged for cleaning the car since I didn’t take pictures of the problem before we left the airport.

Pros:

The staff at the airport was uncooperative and when I asked if I could change the drop off location the person at the counter made a point to be short and was not helpful. I also asked about adding another driver and he seemed annoyed at my questions. Because of this I canceled my reservation and booked at the counter next door. He told me that I would still be charged for the day if I switched in a manner that was intended to scare me than in making any effort to be helpful. but once I made the other reservation he was able to refund my money.

Cons:

Better customer service at the counter.
