The lady issuing my vehicle was shady. Tried her best to get me to buy more insurance. Tried her best to make me buy a very expensive toll pass that I didn’t need. Would not go with Thrifty or their partner agencies again. D!ckheqds.Reviewed Mar 16 2025

Pick up in Lós Angeles and we will return in Las Vegas on 01.01.25 in Hertz 1815 Sahara Avenue. However, at the scheduled return, the rental company was closed with no instructions on where to leave the car. When we called the central office, they told us we would have to return it at another location or keep the car for an additional day. Since we already had plans, we couldn’t go to another agency to return it. Therefore, we kept the car for one more day.Reviewed Jan 3 2025

Bait and switch pricing. Quoted 65 dollars per day but charged 3x the price. Never using them again.Reviewed Dec 26 2024

Pick up was great. Rico, who was helping me, was an absolute pleasure. However, driving off the lot was the worst experience. It took me close to 45 mins to leave. It was the slowest process to leave. Will never be renting a car from LAX again.Reviewed Oct 13 2024

Horrible, disorganized, chaotic scene when we arrived at the rental desk. Took almost three hours to get our car from the time we walked into the agency. I hope people read this and about in the future.Reviewed Oct 5 2024

Pick up was terrible, long waiting line very very long, online check line was offered and when I got at the very end, it didn’t work so I had to go see a staff a counter because the online don’t always work from what I understand from the staff and it happened the exact same thing to the family we were travelling with. At counter, they were trying to sell us all kind of coverage, insurance although we declined…. We lost about 20 mins just for that when it only took 10 mins to complet the rental. But drop off was pretty smooth.Reviewed Aug 11 2024

I waited in line for 3 and 1/2 hours to pick up the car I had reserved and paid for. No explanation as to why it took so long. No apology. Then when we got the car, it stunk of cigarettes and marijuana. Needless to say, I will definitely not be using Thrifty or Kayak ever again.Reviewed Aug 10 2024
