4.0 Mediocre

Anonymous, Apr 2021

KAYAK

Pros:

Arrived for my 6pm pickup at 6:02PM to find lights off, no one around and store locked up. Was hung up on twice when calling their customer service to try to get the pickup rescheduled for a time that fit the companies schedule better.

Cons:

An idea would be to not schedule a pickup for 6PM if you are closing the door at 6PM. Or maybe a check in call for a renter who has a late rental to make sure their flight wasnt delayed or provide an alternate pickup for them.

Pros:

Staff was professional

Cons:

During the booking there was NO mention of the $200 security deposit. Because I was unprepared for this I was unable to even rent the car and missed my chance to both see my family and visit my grandfather's grave.
