They didn’t walk the car just handed me the keys. When I arrived at my destination they stated I should have demanded them to walk the car because there’s damage on the side door that had been obviously touched up. I don’t think I should ask an agent to walk the car they should know to walk their rentals.

No one came to pick up my keys. I was charged an exorbitant amount for filling up the gas tank.

Mediocre|Jan 2022
There was no problem with the booking, there was a little problem with the actual rental car. The windshield wipers smeared and I couldn't see outside my windshield during traveling at night
Had to wait an hour and a half for a car - and not the car I ordered.

I like the no hassle and straight to the point. Clean car and was handed the keys in no time. Same when I brought it back. No problems and just straight forward. Was good with everything so I don’t think there needed to improve anything.

Lady at front desk in Avis practically threw the keys at me, ran my card without telling me the total, was very rude about explaining and didn’t even know the deposit…

Getting a suv when I wanted just a compact car was nice. Not much price difference. At the front desk for checking could probably be nice to have more people, we waited a while.

Your Roadside Service is terrible, they are no help. I had a flat tire and they couldn’t provide any assistance. Basically the response I got was you will have to fix it yourself.
