I liked nothing. One thing could've been better though...How about having a car available when a customer shows up with a reservation and a confirmation number. Yeah..that part could've been better for sure.

I could’ve been provided a car with the proper amount of air in each tire. It would be nice if more than one employee was working at a time.
