9.2 ExcellentSep 3 2020
Pros: YesCons: Price
5.2 OkayAug 2 2020
Cons: Budget and Avis took 2 hours to get our car on arrival. They had a line of 20 to 30 people with reservations and 1 employee working. Completely ridiculous customer service.
10.0 ExcellentJul 15 2020
Pros: Rental was clean. Sanitary practices. Quick and easy. Rode out with a nice truck.
5.2 OkayDec 28 2019
Cons: Empty bottle of liquor in the vehicle.
8.8 ExcellentDec 24 2019
Pros: Everyone was very niceCons: The pick up process was delayed by over an hour due to a system outage at the rental facility.
2.0 MediocreDec 23 2019
Cons: There was no advance notice that my debit card would not be accepted as a form of payment. Despite making a reservation I was forced to get a car from a different rental company at the last minute.
4.4 OkayDec 9 2019
Pros: FineCons: The car was horrible. The seat controls were broken so the only adjustment possible was forward and back. The door seal was broken so air whistled through the car. It drove badly and frankly felt unsafe.
6.0 GoodDec 8 2019
Pros: The vehicle I received was an upgrade to what I was expecting to get.Cons: The vehicle had an intense marijuana smell on the inside. While I understand it’s legal in the state of California, it’s unacceptable to have a vehicle smell like that (or cigarettes).
9.6 ExcellentDec 2 2019
Cons: Expect to pay more than what is quoted to you online because of all the extra fees
8.0 ExcellentAug 31 2019
Pros: The staff in the Sacramento office, which was very busy, were very helpful and efficient.Cons: 1) The address given on line for the drop off location in South Lake Tahoe was incorrect. 2) The chceck in agent at South Lake Tahoe was off hand. 3) There was a problem with ths steering of the car but the agent being so rude I did not report it.

2.0 MediocreSep 17 2020
Pros: NothingCons: Actually giving me a car when I reserved one. Not ruining my first vacation in over a year.
2.0 MediocreSep 8 2020
Cons: They overbooked so I never got a car
10.0 ExcellentJul 14 2020
Pros: I was very happy how affordable the price rate was to rent a carCons: Nearby locations availability
5.2 OkayJan 7 2020
Cons: Person who works at counter in smf told me that there was no drop off location in eureka when I knew that there was. I had to call customer service and set that up myself.
2.0 MediocreOct 21 2019
Pros: The staff was friendly and the car was cleanCons: Our plans changes at the last minute and we only needed the car for a local day trip. Our original plans called for a 500 mile interstate drive. Hertz was not at all accomodating at all. Hertz charged us over $800 for the same location drop off with 6 hrs of usage.
3.6 MediocreOct 14 2019
Pros: The car was clean and worked well.Cons: Pickup was excruciatingly slow and chaotic. I am a Gold Plus member, but had to wait in line because I booked with Kayak. There were 2 agents for almost 15 people in line. When I got to the front, I felt rushed. I needed a larger car to accommodate a group of college students in town for a tournament, so the agent said she'd give me a "really great deal" on an upgrade from a compact to a Chevy Equinox. I asked her repeatedly if was the best possible price, as it was outrageously expensive, and she assured me it was. I didn't feel like I could take time to pull out my laptop to check the pricing online due to the huge numbers of people equally frustrated behind me. As soon as I arrived at the hotel, I checked the rates online on the Hertz site, and the daily rate for the Equinox was much lower. I was overcharged by about $145.67--an amount confirmed by the Hertz agent at the desk when the car was returned. She, however, was not authorized to do any more than give me a $50 credit and suggest I reach out to customer service---argh. That is a process I have had to pursue before, and it is very time consuming and painful. The Hertz agent at the pickup counter in the terminal at Sacramento was friendly and smiling, but she was dishonest right to my face--repeatedly. So disappointing. Next time, I'll use a different agency.
10.0 ExcellentOct 1 2019
Cons: I was surprised to find this less expensive than my airline reward program
8.4 ExcellentSep 29 2019
Cons: There was animal hair on the back seats and the back passenger window was not clean. It looked like a dog had licked it and / or rubbed its nose on it. And quite a bit.
9.6 ExcellentSep 27 2019
Pros: friendly serviceCons: nothing
6.4 GoodSep 19 2019
Pros: Not much. It was a clean car.Cons: They tricked me into signing for an additional coverage even though I specifically asked to not add anything to my bill and was told they were not adding anything. Then customer service blamed me for not going through the 20 item receipt closely enough prior to departure.

Pros: Friendly staff. Nice carCons: Nothing. Everything was great
8.4 ExcellentMay 3 2020
Pros: Staff was very friendly picking up at Sacramento Intl Airport, not so much at the dropoff in PhoenixCons: Car had an odor to it like someone had smoked a pipe or cigar in it.
5.6 OkayDec 14 2019
Cons: I had a reservation but when I arrived at the counter it took 40 minutes to get to a counter attenant, they took 10 minutes to get my paper work, then I had to wait 20 more minutes for the car - more than 1 hour to get a car - UNACCEPTABLE.
6.4 GoodNov 11 2019
Pros: The carCons: A receipt after drop off
4.0 OkayJul 21 2019
Pros: The car was very clean and comfortable.Cons: Staff at the pick up counter was rude and not helpful at all. I had to wait because they did not have a car available. They first asked me if a specific car would be ok, not telling me it was a lower category vehicle (I had to ask if it was the same category).
4.4 OkayDec 16 2018
Poor serviceCons: Lady at counter was rude and basically told me if I didn’t buy additional coverage they would be coming after me for any damages. Very pushy and felt like I was being sold by a used car salesman. Will not be renting from Avis again.
5.6 OkayNov 13 2018
AVIS one way rentalPros: Attendant was very courteous. Presented me with alternate options as my initial reservation didn’t work.Cons: The fact that I was not informed that my drop-off destination Would be closed for the day. Hence the alternate options. But the cheapest option was $75-80 more than my original reservation. I opted for Uber.
2.8 MediocreMay 28 2018
No customer servicePros: not muchCons: Did nothing about the car smelling like cigarettes when I reported it
10.0 ExcellentMay 16 2018
Great price and great experiencePros: The price was about $100 less than other venders. We received a Cadillac for the price of a Impala.

2.0 MediocreMay 3 2020
Cons: We could have been better informed about the hours. Everything we received said that the location was open until 5 PM. When we got there at 4:30 we learned through a sign on the door that they closed at 4. Lost our money on buying the insurance and had to spend twice as much to get another car that we could pick up at the airport.

2.0 MediocreNov 24 2016
Would not give me the carPros: My review is for Enterprise, NOT KAYAK. Kayak is great.Cons: However, when I showed up to get the car, which I needed for a job interview near where I'm moving, my reservation was acknowledged and I was told "we don't have enough cars to fill the reservations." I left without the car and had to miss my interview. When I called corporate, they contacted the store I went to and were told that, actually, no one has come into the store and they don't remember having a conversation me. Their system showed that there were cars and that I had one reserved. But they continued to deny that I had even been in there. Very ridiculous, unprofessional, and I was not given any resolution.
2.0 MediocreOct 31 2016
Cons: In general I am very unhappy with the service, and do no intend to rent a car at enterprise again. The credit card device wasn't working properly, I've mentioned several times that my credit card was ok, but the attendant was very rude, and gave me the impression that I was lying about it. At the end we use another credit card device and worked.
8.8 ExcellentJul 24 2016
Pros: Pick up and drop off was very quick, I was in and out in less than 15 min both times. I paid $180 total for a week long rental of an economy car, which I thought was a very good value.Cons: Economy car is economy. No remote door locks, very tiny car, lots of road noise, but what do you expect when renting this cheaply? On the plus side I ended up with a car that had XM radio. Usually this would cost an extra $6 per day, but I didn't ask for it so I didn't pay for it.
