Friendly staff but car rental experience; not so muchThe staff that assisted me were very nice and friendly.First SUV I was given was filthy with food wrappers from prior guest and Enterprise did not clean vehicle. Second SUV given was a nice upgrade but needed immediate maintenance service while in use and was advised to either go to Firestone or put oil in car. We will not be be using Enterprise again.

Rented a large size car, they gave me a Nissan Sentra. This car was a 2016, with 10,000 Miles millage, had a flat tire and had to pay 90 dollars to have a new tire. When we arrive there, I had to call my insurance co. in Canada. to proved the young black lady in the office that I had all the covers on my policy. She talked with them for almost Half an hour on my cell phone for getting from them by fax all the documents she was asking for. I have rented many cars in my life and never had a service like this before. I was so angry when I left the place. I told Juan a very nice and polite gentlemen who is working there all my worries about was going there, he said that he was going to talk to Mike and see what Mike will do about it. Now I'm back to Canada and trying to find a document that will prove that I asked for a Large size car and they gaved me a compact one. What a shame. If for some reason you could help me in this case, I really would apreciate. If yo can send me a copy of the location, my e-mail adress..allenjimmy@outlook.com, my phone number is 1-819-764-3634. Thanks. My name is Jimmy Allen.

The price was a lot better compared to the FLL airport. Note that this office closes at 6pm. They were easy to work with and made it easy to change our dropoff location. It cost us an additional $50 to change. I would recommend them.

Pick up NOT easy. Mall doors locked. Stood outside for 15 minutes until security let us in. Office open at 8 am. Mall opened at 10 am.After getting on the road noticed paperwork was WRONG. Mileage off by almost 2000 miles and indicated tank was full. Tank was only 1/2 full. Unable to get new paperwork. Returned car with full tank. Requesting refund. Not able to have kind of communication with staff at drop off. I understand it’s busy but attendant was almost rude.

Great value and convenienceThe price of the rental was great and it was great for our family and 2 dogs to travel in the comfort of a mini van for our trip and have a DVD player as well! Not to mention the miles we saved on our own cars!

Reservations mean nothing!After a tremendous amount of time, inconvenience, and multiple visits, we were finally given a vehicle that met our needs.Our reservation made almost 3 months in advance meant nothing. We needed a minivan for our vavation, and there were none to be had.

I will never rent again from this companyNothing, absolutely nothingThe facility was terrible. There was not a lot of help, the employees on pick up and drop off were slow and disinterested. Customer service was clearly NOT a priority. The car itself was terrible. It was expensive and not as described. It had 36K miles so it was older but the condition was terrible. The cloth seats in the interior were stained beyond any rental I have ever seen and there was a disgusting smell like fast food in the car for the duration of my rental. I had to buy 2 car fresheners for the vents and they did not even help in eliminating the smell. Another man that I was speaking with when I was dropping off my car was complaining that the car he just rented from them had bald tires. The rental company was disgraceful. I have rented many cars, especially in the past 3 years. I will NEVER rent from this company again.

Closed office at pickup timeWe had a rental car reserved and picking up at 6pm. Guess what? Rental car location is closed at 6pm! Tried to get one at the airport & they wanted to charge us 3x the price. Thank goodness for uber, because this was awful
3.2 MediocreFeb 19 2017
not one thingOur confirmation indicated that there was a shuttle that would pick us up at the airport (just call the number provided). When we called the number (954-731-0701) at the rental location, they told us that they did not have a shuttle and that we would have to get a cab. That was the start of our unbelievably bad experience with this Thrifty location. After spending $30 for a cab to get to the place, we were told that they had no more full sized cars, which we had reserved. The only choice we had was a minivan, so that is what we got. As we left the parking lot, I noticed that there was less than a quarter tank of gas and there was a maintenance notice on the dash. I called the office and they said that we just had to return the vehicle at the same level of gas and that the maintenance notice was probably just for an oil change and just to "ignore it". Unfortunately, when we dropped off the vehicle at Orlando, they attempted to charge us for gas at $9.99 per gallon. I then had to go to the customer service desk in the terminal to get the charges taken off. We have traveled for many years and I have to say that this has been the worse car rental experience I have ever had and I will never use Thrifty again, and that Hertz should investigate the Lauderdale Lakes location in order to preserve the Hertz brand.

LocationEntered the office and no one acknowledged I was there. Walked right past the person sitting at the entrance, made eye contact with the person but she said nothing. I came back and asked who do I see about a car. The lady stated it was her. She asked for my ID and credit card. I gave her the two cards and another person walked in and she asked him right away if she could help. He stated he was returning a car. She then gave him all of her attention and left me standing there. After 5 minutes I asked for my cards back and left.

A rental car in Plantation is an ideal way of facilitating your tour to numerous must-visit attractions in the city. The Secret Woods Nature Center, located on State Rd 84, comes across as an ideal outdoor site with numerous trails to stroll and jog. You can also take a drive to Coral Springs Museum of Art on Coral Springs Drive with your rented car and enjoy hundreds of art pieces. For a break from Plantation’s warm weather, take a trip to Florida Panthers Ice Den. The establishment is a haven for ice skaters and campers. For glamorous beaches, boat canals, and great shopping, you can travel to Fort Lauderdale, a short drive from Plantation, via a vehicle from Plantation car rentals.
The closest international airport to Plantation is Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International Airport, which operates approximately seven miles from the city. You can find a Rental Car Center near the airport’s entrance where Plantation car rentals like Avis, Budget, Enterprise, Hertz, and Thrifty offer services. You may use a Rental Car Shuttle bus to get to the center if you arrive at any Terminal. Its pick-up point is at the consolidated rental facility in Level 2. Miami International Airport, located about 24 miles from Plantation, also allows you to fly into the city. Its Rental Car Center sits on the third level, between the Dolphin Garage and Flamingo garage. While a Rental Car shuttle bus is not available, the MIA Mover will provide you with a transport mode to the center. Avis, Budget, Hertz, and Enterprise are among the car rentals in Plantation you can find there.
Plantation has various busy roadways, consisting of Broward Blvd, Sunrise Blvd, 12th Street, University Drive, State Road 7, and Florida’s Turnpike. They branch out to numerous arterial roads that reach various neighborhoods and attractions. Thus, opting for a navigation system on your rental car would go a long way to helping you maneuver the city. Further, keeping off the roads during rush hours would help traffic build-up on most routes, such as Florida Turnpike and University Drive.
Plantation’s morning rush hour peaks early at around 6am. It features higher than moderate traffic that worsens between 7am and 7:30am. However, roads may clear off by approximately 10am. In the evening, you can expect a rush hour from around 3:30pm. Roadways like Florida Turnpike are mostly affected by bumper-to-bumper traffic. It might be tempting to drive through University Drive to escape the traffic. But the route also features many drivers creating congestion that does not die out until about 7pm.
