Staff were super helpful, friendly and efficient. Vehicle was clean and great to drive, but a bit loud with highway noise and road bumps (Ford Edge), and cost more than I expected.

Passenger van

They are not easy to contact by phone. When I wanted to verify that my vehicle would be there when I planned to pick it up; I got a Royal run around with Enterprise people trying to get to the local place of business. Phone kept being answered by their call centers with poor English speaking people. 😕 It took 5 phone calls to finally get connected to the local business site. My past experience has been that they do not always have the vehicle you sign up for on the day you arrive for it. This time it was very important that I have a large passenger van.
