Had a problem with pick-up. Got the text of which car to grab (in a specific parking spot) and was confirmed via text and email. When we tried to leave the check out person said he had no record of my reservation and no link to that car. So, it took a very long time to depart airport. Also, car was not very clean.Reviewed Dec 11 2025

Hertz did not have a 12-passenger van available at reservation date/time. I had eight family members, two in car seats, waiting to be picked up at 9:00 am, and I was told to leave and to return at noon to see if a van had become available. Then, they changed to “we’ll call you when one becomes available”. Offered a minivan or a Suburban in lieu, even though I told them I had nine passengers. Did not seek a van from another location. Said they could not refund me because I had pre-paid. Found another rental agency with a 12-passenger van at IAD and paid a premium for the rental, but wasn’t going to make my family wait until Hertz bothered to find a van. Complete ripoff, dishonest agency.Reviewed Dec 8 2025

Great experience all around but the location and drop off in Miami is a pain. I went around in circles for 30 mins until I finally found the place. Also you have to go up to level 5 and then come back down to level and 1 to check out. Not ideal . Car was clean and employees great .Reviewed Dec 6 2025

The hertz representative was helpful, but I was asked to check that the condition of the vehicle matched what was annotate on the rental agreement. It was raining and dark a very poor situation to check the condition of the vehicle.Reviewed Dec 5 2025

Car smelled like smoke. Swapped it out for a car that didn’t get cleaned from the prior person (still had their rental contract).Reviewed Dec 4 2025

Hertz was good, but when I booked my car through Kayak, the vehicle that was booked didn't get relayed to Hertz. This is two reservations in a row where I booked a Compact SUV and the Hertz dealer received a request for a compact car.Reviewed Dec 2 2025
