Pros:

They did't slam us with extra fees at pickup like some competitors do. Pickup was quick and easy. Staff was polite. Cars weren't too far from the terminal.

Cons:

There's wasn't a great selection of cars at this location, we ended up with a bigger vehicle than expected, but it was clean and ran well so it's not a big issue.

KAYAK

Pros:

The customer service rep at the Springfield, IL airport was very helpful.

Cons:

I had a hold on the account because of an issue that I was unaware of through Enterprise. I was renting this on a Sunday and the office that could have resolved this was closed. I am thankful that there was another car rental company available. It would have been helpful to have known about an issue before or as I was securing my reservation.

Cons:

I had to get a rental and be on the road at 12:30. So I scheduled the pick up for 12:00. At 12:30 the vehicle just showed up, I then had to wait for it to be inspected and cleaned. This made me late and having to hurry to catch a flight out. Was any apology or compensation offered, NO. Very surprising in a market w so many choices.

Pros:

The counter was closed when I arrived to pick up the car. I had a family emergency and needed to get home to Washington DC early band was unable to make my flight that evening. I will never rent from Alamo again.

Cons:

Everything. And when I sent them an email about it they had the audacity to wish me a happy new year. They don't even deserve 1 star.

The car I was given had 2 bad tires in it. One had a large chunk out of the sidewall and the other had cords and belts showing all the way around. When I called and told them about the problem I was just told to go to the nearest location and exchange it. No further help and I was 3 states away trying to find another location. We got it exchanged for a car that hadn’t been cleaned from previous rental and the check engine light came on shortly after receiving it. Overall not an ideal experience for the money I paid.

Cons:

Car had a bulge in the tire. Noticed it when I pulled into a gas station to clean the windshield which was bug spotted. Called and they said don't return it, call Roadside Assistance. No other cars local so they had me drive to another city. That location rented the car they told me was saved for me so I ended up in a Mitubishi Lancer - which is no Mustang.
