4.0 Mediocre
Oct 2020
Cons:
Waiting outside before picking the car up and after dropping it off seems like a poor way to do business. I understand that in these times of COVID-19, businesses have had to make changes, but being able to wait inside for a ride seems do able.10.0 Wonderful

Cons:
The car was very smoky smelling. Every tim ewe got in it, the odor was annoying. Especially since at checkout we signed a part of the contract that said we would not smoke in the vehicle. Seems it should be presented to us without smoke smell.Hertz

Pros:
The staff is very helpful and friendly.Cons:
