Pros:

Best hours in the area, though that's not saying much. At least they are open Sunday where others are not. $30 rental through Kayak. But another full day charge for an extra hour if I was going to return it at 7pm the next day after renting it at 6pm (though that was as late as they were open).

Cons:

First car was decent, but was completely dead in the morning. Was only a one day rental while having a car repaired, so a waste of time by having to return it for another. Second car was FILTHY. Huge sticky glob of semi-dried ketchup on the floor. Late into work. Had to leave work early to get it back on time. Both cars smelled funny. Can't decide if they were smoked in, or bowling alley shoe deodorizer was used on them.

Th vehicle should have been cleaner. There was cat hair on seats and in the trunk. The interior smelled of smoke, food crumbs on the floors and worst off was the dried spilled soda on the plastic by the gear shifter. Was not impressed, would have traded vehicles but was under time restraints.

Getting the car was fine. When we drove the car, it needed an alinement, the tire maintenance light came on, the oil maintenance light came on, and the tags expired in June. When I let them know what the issues were, the response they gave was a nonchalant “I know”. They were aware of all the issues and STILL rented the car out. I will never go back to them again, nor will I recommend. 0/10 stars.

Pros:

Service was friendly. Key drop-off for overnight is convenient.

Cons:

The Altima that I was given has the defective radar system and that prevents the cruise control from working. So I drove 1600 miles of highway with no cruise control and over time, it became very uncomfortable. I left my EZ-Pass tag attached to the window when I dropped the car off over night. I returned early in the morning to claim it and was told there was no EZ-Pass in the car. I didn't remove it from the car, so it disappeared in their hands. I had to cancel my pass.
