4.0 OkayOct 31 2021
Windshield wipers didn’t work, I had to pull over for a bit due to the rain and the fact I couldn’t see. It wasn’t tat bad if a storm but the windshield wipers were terrible. I kept getting notified that the wireless battery remote key was at 0%. Then no one on the thrifty staff told me I could just leave the keys in the car and leave. I had to wait in a line for over an hour to learn that I could have just left. Poor communication and poor checkup on the car before use. I do not recommend.

The car was jot on a good shape
7.9 GoodSep 27 2021
Took a few minutes to check in but service, the near perfect car we had and ease of driving in and out of Manhattan gives me an entirely new perspective of car rental in NYC. Will def do it again!
5.9 OkaySep 7 2021
The Upper west side location needs more associates working the store. One person was working throughout the 2 hours I was there and only one additional colleague was there to help.
1.9 HorribleAug 31 2021
I got to the rental office on W83rd St. prior to my 10:00am pick-up time and there was a line out the door (I'll give them a little leeway here because the office is very small). 11:00am came and went, 12:00pm came and went, I never even got inside the building to speak with an employee, nor did I see anyone in front of me in line receive the cars that they booked. I suspect they didn't have any cars left to provide for the growing line of agitated customers, and while this may be related to the pandemic and was outside of their control, what was within their control would have been for someone to come outside and tell us what was going on, or let us know that they were expecting a long delay or that our plans would likely have to be cancelled.
1.9 HorribleAug 31 2021
Arrived at noon for my noon reservation. Waited until 230 for service.
1.9 HorribleAug 30 2021
The worst customer service you can imagine. There's a reason it's the cheapest option.
5.9 OkayAug 22 2021
The car had some dirty napkins inside, but it was expected to return it clean to avoid any additional charges. The guy at the rental tried to convince us that we need an upgrade, although this turned out to be false. The car itself had pretty basic options, but it did its job. I am not sure if the poor experience is due to covid (lack of cars, lack of staff, etc.) or the company.
3.9 MediocreAug 19 2021
We waited 2 hours for the car to be ready an when we received it it was not clean inside or out.

The car was not clean. Steering was unstable and there needs to be a change in the wheel alignment.
8.4 ExcellentJul 20 2020
Enterprise always has great customer service and they make pick-up and return fast and easy. They are my preferred car rental agency.Due to demand, the prices of rental cars are high right now. Enterprise was on par with other companies but my wallet still felt the hit.

The drop off was outstanding, and the pick up was relatively quick.The car had not been recently washed.

5.2 OkayApr 24 2020
The car was really dirty. I found trash under the seat and nuts and crumbs surrounding the gear shift. The dash was and car doors had mud or some type of stain on them. This was the dirtiest car I’ve ever rented. Also the windshield was filthy.

Pickup was great at w 76th NYC, dropoff was very uncomfortable though at TRI airport. None of the employees were wearing masks, the rental desk is inside of an airport, just past the giant signs that say masks are required.
4.0 OkayNov 29 2021
All of the staff at pick up and drop off were very friendly and attentive. They didn’t have the hybrid we requested, so they gave us a midsized suv, which they tried to upsell us on before they told us they did not actually have the car we reserved. The exterior of the car they gave us was filthy, as if it had been dropped off from a long road trip and handed straight to us. The inside seemed worn out and dirty for a car that only had >60k miles, and smelled like it was sprayed with freshener moments before it was given to us. It was out of windshield washer fluid, which we had to stop and fill up. It had 3/4 of a tank of gas when it was given to us. The steering wheel vibrated the whole trip. The car seemed like it probably hadn’t been serviced in a long time. Overall, the staff was nice and the car got us to where we needed to go. But, it was a big disappointment to do a 6 hour drive in a dirty vehicle that smelled badly and drove poorly.
4.0 OkayNov 1 2021

10.0 ExcellentJul 12 2021
I liked the car I received and the customer service was great, but there definitely needs to be more than one person working the counter to cut down on wait times.
5.9 OkayJul 12 2021
I waited over an hour to pick up my vehicle and about 30 minutes to drop it off. The car was “premium” and excellent—clean, well-maintained, etc. Gas started at under half a tank, which was annoying,
8.0 ExcellentMay 31 2021
The carI prepaid for gas expecting to be credited for the fuel I didn’t use. At pick up the staff asked me so many questions about extras I felt obligated to buy the gas.

4.0 OkaySep 9 2020
pick up staff was quick. not necessarily friendly, but quick.the car was disgusting inside. it was clearly not cleaned (but the "this car has been cleaned" paper was placed inside) and it smelled. It still had someone's dirty mask in the backseat, dust/soot everywhere and dried snot on the dash/door.
9.2 ExcellentJun 27 2020
Staff were extremely helpful and kind. Car was VERY clean, which is so necessary during the COVID pandemic.It feels unbelievably expensive. I understand it's a one-way trip, but the fees are outrageous. I'm glad upgrading in person was cheaper than online.

Sad epilogue of what I thought a decent rentalFriendly staff, location reacheable by public transportationI rented a car for one day and unlimited mileage and I was charged for two days even after returning the vehicle within the allowed timeframe (just as instructed by the staff) I called the manager for details and I was still charged for the second day. Although friendly, the staff was not well prepared and was misleading.
