When I dropped the car off with Janet R. she was excellent! I was wearing a sling on my right arm because I have broken my shoulder. She couldn’t have been more helpful with me and my luggage. The wheel on the luggage had broken and I couldn’t make it move with one hand. She brought it downstairs for me on the elevator. I so appreciated that! She deserves a raise, and a promotion!

After making the reservation and driving to that location, we were told that they don’t have a car for us. We spent $70 to Uber to and from the Dorchester, MS location just to be told that there is no car for us. Extremely disappointed!

They were very quick with getting the rental car and had a lot of people on staff in the garage knowing it was a holiday weekend. The rental car bus seemed to take a very long time to pick up at the terminal.

Person at drop-off claiming to be the owner of the location - he did NOT give me his name - was incredibly intense and rude about having the car cleaned before drop off. The car was clean - we only used it for 6 hours - but he insisted we get it fully washed or we would be charged $450. As I tried to show how clean it was by pulling out the car mats, he touched me to pull me back from the car and told me to get off his lot. It was a terrible and intense 15 min experience and I believe I was trying to be taken advantage of (other people at drop off felt the same way). I eventually just asked for my receipt and he told me he wouldnt charge me the $450 after all. I think there may be some sort of scam (in concert with the carwash) going on or there is just something very different about this location. I will NEVER rent from there again and I may never rent from Avis again because of this experience.
When collecting the car at the Rental Counter, the queue was 45 minutes- too long in my view

Horrible dropoff experience in Philly. No signage explaining what to do. Pulled into lanes that looked like a place for cars to be left. There were a few people outside that saw me arrive but did nothing to help and quickly disappeared. Went inside to the counter and waiting in line for a while... only to finally get to the front and be told "oh you just have to leave the keys in the car and you can go." Terrible.
After making the reservation on line, I went in person to the office to add an additional day to the rental. After waiting in line for 30 minutes at an office in downtown Boston staffed by a single person (the rare office not out at the airport), the person in the office did this and quoted me a price which was essentially the same as the initial quote with one more day at the same daily rate. When I went later to print the rental information which was emailed to me I discovered that the price had gone up by 35% (for taking a 9 day rental to a 10 day rental) with an increase in both the base rate and the daily rate. After close to an hour on the phone with unhelpful customer service, I cancelled the rental and went to Enterprise instead — a price comparable the original quote from Hertz, with an office staffed by multiple people eager to be helpful. An experience which will shift my loyalty in the future.

Tried to rent me a Tesla, but where we were going did not have easy access to charging stations, then had to pay to “upgrade” to a lower class gasoline car. This was not requested or mentioned in reservation, but what can you do. I tried calling to change my vehicle drop off location to another near by location and customer service was poor, lady barely spoke English and could not understand what I was asking. I basically gave up. The car was otherwise fine.

I was delayed because of storms and finally got to Boston around 330 am and the offices had closed at 130am so I had to wait an additional 2 and a half hours before I could try to pick up my rental. When it was finally time to pick up my car they took an additional hour getting cars “ready” for customers. The car I had had been cleaned in haste and there was still food and trash underneath the seats but at this point I was ready to just be on the road to my destination. When it was time to drop off the car I was charged an additional $113 dollars for taxes and surcharges which I thought was included with the initial rental. Knowing how Thrifty operates I will chose a different company from now on and will not refer them to anyone.

Car pick up was a disaster. One operator (doing his best) trying to serve over 50 customers waiting for a car. People were taking whatever next car came from the lot.
Reservation could not be located - cost me 1.5 hours trying to resolve and caused me to miss the wedding that I was in town for. I was there 1 night and this ruined the entire purpose of being there.

We showed up and they didn’t have a car for us, they said they were understaffed and they didn’t have any clean cars. I saw what looked like hundreds of cars in the Sixt area, but he said he was working alone and couldn’t help us…even if I took a dirty car. Horrible experience after flying all day, landing at midnight and having a tired 5 and 8 year old. Was horrible and don’t think I’ll use them again.
