Hertz scammed me – I selected a date on the website, they booked me for a different one, and didn't allow me to change or cancel the trip they wrongly scheduled. I ended up having to book another one with a different company at the airport.Reviewed May 3 2024

It was a good experience for me. The price of $135 per day for sedan was more than I was planing to pay. I would be OK with $85 for one day. Thank you!Reviewed Apr 13 2024

Every time I have rented a car from Hertz at Union Station, there are never cars available at pick up time. There’s always a huge line of people who reserved but can’t get cars because none are available. They purposely overbook and when customers show up, the message is screw you, you can wait until a car shows up—and who knows when that will be.Reviewed Apr 11 2024
