Pros:

They called me a day before my scheduled pick up date to tell me they did not have ANY cars to rent me. I will never use them nor recommend them again. I have many friends who rent from them an all were made aware of this. They didn’t give any alternatives or recommendations on who may have them very dissatisfied

Cons:

Never call customer a day before to cancel their rental
