**Do not rent from this Thrifty location if your flight lands after 10:30pm. The risk of delay is very real, travel to the rental facility takes close to 30 minutes from the gate, and the Thrifty staff closes the desk (and everyone leaves) at 11:30pm! Will not rent from here again because this was not communicated to me, despite me sharing my flight arrival time/info.**Reviewed Nov 1 2026

Dirty dirty dirty car....smoke & weed smell in the car was so bad we had to leave windows and roof cracked at night to air it out...when home, i had to have clothes we brought for a wedding all dry cleaned due to smell of weed and cigarette. It says everywhere no smoking in the cars...how does that happen and then i have to ride 6 hours each way in it? I strongly am asking for a refundReviewed Oct 23 2026

My experience with Thrifty was great. My problem was with Kayak. I reserved a full size 12 passenger van through Kayak who confirmed the reservation for me. When I got to the rental desk they stated they never had that size vehicle in the Portland airport fleet. They showed me that I had only ever rented a minivan. 12 people in a minivan? Thanks Kayak you ruined my trip.Reviewed Oct 19 2026
