3.6 MediocreNov 1 2020
Cons: The woman who serviced us upon arrival was very rude. Especially, with the drop off. We were supposed to do a key drop off box. The place suspended that activity and never let us know. There was nowhere to leave the car and we didn't know what to do. She must have seen us from a distance since the office was closed and came over to ask about us. Her response was well today is your lucky day. not, I'm sorry for the inconvenience we should have contacted you telling you our policy has changed nothing.
2.0 MediocreOct 13 2020
Pros: NothingCons: Would have been better if they had the car that I reserved. Also if they would’ve called me once they had a car to rent
2.0 MediocreSep 12 2020
Cons: There were no cars available to fulfill our reservation. The Enterprise corporate staff assured us there were cars available when we phoned the night before but then on the morning of the rental, the local office called to tell us they had none and could not fulfill the reservation. We ended up renting directly from a local Avis but it caused us a lot of headache And stress at the start of our vacation. Was very disappointing as no one from Enterprise seemed able to resolve the situation.
10.0 ExcellentAug 20 2020
Pros: Really good car for what I neededCons: Wanted car at a different location for pick up. Would have saved me a couple hours on pick up and drop off. Yes I could have picked up closer but car was more expensive at that location.
10.0 ExcellentJul 28 2020
Pros: The staff were very polite, professional and quick.Cons: The only thing I wish was that there were floor mats in the car. Colorado is very dusty and I was concerned about tracking dirt on the carpet.
8.8 ExcellentJun 3 2020
Cons: Very slow service with pickup otherwise great
10.0 ExcellentMar 13 2020
Pros: Drop-off super easy, very comfortable car.
8.0 ExcellentDec 27 2019
Pros: Helpful staff memberCons: The car purposed for weather conditions.
2.0 MediocreSep 2 2019
Pros: NothingCons: I drove all the way down to the pick up location and they told me they didn't have any cars and they couldn't help me.

10.0 ExcellentMay 10 2021
Cons: The downtown pick up was hard to find
8.0 ExcellentApr 25 2021
Pros: The vehicle was very clean and was ready on time.Cons: The location of this Sixt is terrible and took forever to find. The address listed is not where the location is, it’s actually around the corner. And the parking lot for the vehicles is a block away. For pick up of vehicle with a bunch of luggage straight from the airport, this is incredibly inconvenient and I’m very glad the lady offered to get the vehicle for me. And at least there is a guy in the lot that you can drop the keys off with so you don’t have to walk back to “check out”.
10.0 ExcellentMar 27 2021
Pros: Free upgrade and accommodated us when we booked at the Denver location and needed car at airport location.
2.0 MediocreMar 18 2021
Pros: NothingCons: When I went to make the reservation on YOUR site, instead of showing me a February calendar, it pulled up a March Calendar. Since the days of the week fell on the same date, I mistakenly made a reservation for March. Then Sixt would not refund my money even though the reservation was a month away.
2.0 MediocreMar 11 2021
Cons: My flight reservation got cancelled 30 min after booking. By then I had already booked my car rental. I called sixt to tell them to cancel my appointment and only got 1/4 of what I had spent on my car rental. I NEVER used them, never went to Colorado and yet only got a fraction of of the $250 I spent to have a car. I had booked this appointment a month in advance. It's not like I cancelled a few days before my reservation. Getting in touch with sixt is difficult and they returned my email days after. I wish someone would look into this so that I could get my money back.
8.0 ExcellentMar 10 2021
Cons: Our Rep at counter..Joshua, was EXCELLENT. If not for him I would be giving Sixt a very bad review as the Customer Service via email before the pick up was awful.
2.0 MediocreJan 7 2021
Cons: The car wasn't ready when we got there - had to wait 45 minutes. And then they told us that we couldn't take it into Idaho from Colorado or it would be a breach of contract, so we had to walk. They said that if we were found to be in Idaho we would be charged $2 a mile for the entire rental period. Total pain, and for nothing.
4.0 OkayJan 2 2021
Cons: Had to cancel due to Covid exposure (later, tested positive). Because we pre-paid, we were only given a partial refund. Lesson: DO NOT PAY UNTIL YOU ARE AT THE RENTAL FACILITY.
2.0 MediocreDec 4 2020
Pros: NothingCons: Disclosure of car rental location and real people to answer the phone
9.6 ExcellentNov 16 2020
Cons: Make sure you get the insurance. Even a cracked windscreen is not covered when you rent even though they have insurance on the vehicles

2.0 MediocreMar 23 2021
Cons: The person at the rental agency very tactlessly said they didn’t have any cars for the price I reserved the car for. He said they only have SUVs and that it would cost me $50 more. I was in a bind so I took it, but I felt swindled.
2.0 MediocreAug 29 2020
Cons: The entire process.
7.2 GoodAug 24 2020
Cons: The car being there as scheduled.
9.6 ExcellentJul 21 2020
Pros: Staff very helpful.Cons: Overall very good experience.
8.0 ExcellentJul 1 2020
Pros: Yes, staff was amazing!Cons: the car had a change oil warning sign on for the whole trip. Tires were unevenly inflated; we had to deal with it on the road. Customer service was good, but Budget should take better care of its cars.
4.0 OkayJun 15 2020
Cons: Shuttle to and from airport was EXTREMELY slow. Going back to the airport the bus went through the “customer” line which took 25 minutes. There was a bunch of people including myself that almost missed our flights. The bus needs to get to the airport quicker as well as pick up from the airport quicker. When we first arrived we saw the Hertz and other rental car companies shuttles pass THREE times before ours even showed up. Our car was also very dirty upon pickup, not great to see.
10.0 ExcellentAug 25 2019
Pros: The staff was helpful and patient.Cons: The truth on pricing and holding amounts should be the first thing a customer should be made aware of.
10.0 ExcellentAug 23 2019
Pros: The employee was nice,professional and very knowledgeable. I will definitely rent from this place again.Cons: Nothing my experience was great
10.0 ExcellentJul 30 2019
Pros: Friendly, helpful staff.Cons: Thought pick up was at DIA, but it was at offsite location. Not sure how mix up happened. Employee was helpful getting me same car at DIA (though it cost more).
9.2 ExcellentJul 1 2019
Cons: Nice people always friendly

2.0 MediocreJul 20 2020
Pros: They did not have our car!! Will never use this company again. The staff kept on saying it’s not our problem!!
5.2 OkayJul 15 2020
Cons: I sat and waited for a car they couldn’t find for over an hour before they finally gave me a different model, it was damaged and then had to be switched to another car. As I was driving out I saw that they finally brought up the car I was supposed to have originally but I was done dealing with that by then.
3.6 MediocreJun 29 2020
Pros: The staff was nice, they were helpfulCons: The car was late to drop off and was not cleaned out but we were going on a family trip so we needed to leave. There was a nail in the drivers side tire and we used fix a flat and after hours drop off so I could not tell them. Not sure if the nail was in the tire when we picked it up but we were far from any towns and limited cell service so we did what we could do.
4.0 OkayJul 28 2019
Pros: I got a free upgrade.Cons: I was charged for the fuel service option even though I filled up the tank right before drop off.
7.6 GoodAug 4 2018
Ups and downsPros: Staff was very kind.Cons: It was the first time I had tried to pick up a car early, and this may be an industrywide policy, but instead of charging an hourly amount for the extra hour and a half, they were going to calculate the new rate as if I were just renting today, which would have been $200 more. I suppose in the interest of time, the car was given to us dirty. On the fence about that.
10.0 ExcellentMay 18 2018
KudosPros: In person customer care was outstanding
10.0 ExcellentApr 12 2018
SMOOTH RIDEPros: clean roomy
5.2 OkayApr 1 2016
Quick but mistakesPros: Easy after hours drop off box.Cons: Only issue was Avis Lakewood overcharging me at return. They quickly fixed this after I called customer care, but I don't appreciate having to find extra unauthorized charges on my credit card and spending time on the phone to get it fixed.

2.4 MediocreOct 21 2020
Cons: They have double charged me. Hertz has a sleazy way of making it seem like you pay one thing but then they charge you much more later. I will not be renting through kayak again because this is a shady practice y'all are linking users up for.
10.0 ExcellentOct 16 2020
Pros: Well I forgot her name, but the Landry was great. Made it quick and painless. The car was perfect for my trip and couldn’t have been happier. Thanks.Cons: Everything was great
7.6 GoodSep 21 2020
Pros: We got an unexpected upgrade. Super nice!Cons: The key drop-off box was broken, and we had to drive back the next day to return the key.
2.0 MediocreSep 16 2020
Pros: NOTHINGCons: I prepaid for my Hertz rental and got a call the morning of the reservation saying that they did not have a car for me. The Hertz employee was EXTREMELY rude on the phone. When I called Hertz, they told me I had to call a different number for the refund. I called that number and it connected me back to the exact same customer service menu. They ended up switching my reservation to a different location and i got ANOTHER call 15 minutes before I was supposed to pick up my car saying that there was no car for me! Long story short - I am still trying to get my money refunded and I never got a car from them. Worst car rental experience EVER
5.6 OkayJun 28 2020
Cons: The pickup location was not even open at the time I was supposed to pick up my vehicle. Then I had to drive another 45 miles to the airport to pick up an alternative vehicle. Website information is not accurate and very poor overall experience.
2.8 MediocreOct 23 2019
Pros: I picked up the car filthyCons: The Manager.
7.6 GoodSep 30 2019
Pros: Staff was friendly, price was good for what I ended up with.Cons: The woman working the counter when I picked up was alone and super overwhelmed with how busy it was. She was incredibly nice, and also apologetic, but it was clear there isn’t really a system for ensuring cars are prepared for renters. Everyone had to wait a long time (an hour or so).
2.0 MediocreSep 23 2019
Cons: Booked for Saturday pick up and location was closed. Unable to complete car rental.
6.0 GoodMar 11 2019
Pros: Pick up and drop off was convenient, friendly and quick.Cons: The car, a Nissan Versa, was terrible for long-distance travel. VERY loud. Exceptional amounts of road and wind noise. Terrible soundproofing. And pretty mediocre gas mileage. One tire was leaking and had to be plugged and the windshield wipers skipped.
2.0 MediocreDec 30 2018
A Seinfeld MomentCons: After reserving a car and driving to the office, I was told that there aren’t any cars available and even reservations made two days earlier would not be honored.
