Dollar rented vehicles while not having inventory. One hour wait to get to the counter only to be told we’d have to wait 30 minutes to 2 hours for a vehicle because they didn’t have any left on site. After 2.5 hours, we finally received a vehicle.

Stood in line for over an hour. While waiting, downloaded "Dollar" app to find out app is a scam and Dollar doesn't have an app (neither does Thrifty) Cars not available. Had to get luxury XC90 Volvo for upcharge. AC either full blast and very loud (setting 2-5) or too low and not enough.

The car was not cleaned well - there were footprints on the inside of the windshield and trail mix scattered around the backseat. Good thing I’m not allergic to nuts! Worse than that was the pickup experience. After standing in line for 55 minutes to reach the checkin counter, it was another 40 minutes before they called me to get the car (I guess I should be thankful it was faster than the 90 minutes they told me I would have to wait!). Yes, I picked up on a Friday afternoon in the summer, but the curt desk agent told me they have this backlog every day…. Which means something is wrong with their system!

I waited in line for an hour when I had a reservation. The car I paid for wasn't available, so I had to pay EXTRA to get a car, or wait another 1.5 hours.

I requested a compact car, but none were available. The minivani was assigned was so complicated and confusing that on several occasions I feared I would cause an accident. I am hoping to receive a refund for what turned out to be a very stressful experience.

I showed up at 8 am to get the car I reserved and it was not available. My options were either to drive a truck (not optimal for a long road trip), pay $200 more for a different car, or wait for one to become available. The clerk also didn't want to give me a certain car to take one way. It was a pretty frustrating experience overall considering I made a reservation far in advance.

Found qeeq (via kayak) not transparent as at the time of reservation it wasn’t clear insurance wasn’t included, so the apparently interesting rate basically ended up not interesting at all. Not good. Moreover, on the Budget side all went ok except the officer at desk took ages for pick up and also for drop off Thanks

According to my reservation, I rented an intermediate SUV. I had it in writing. The Hertz person just repeated over and over that I reserved a compact SUV. Upgrading to an intermediate almost doubled the price. It was a bait and switch. I had to have the intermediate size based on what I was transporting. I will never use Hertz again.

The car wasn't ready for me although I had a reservation. (There were 5+ other parties waiting for their cars too!) Also, I bought an EZPass because they said it would work on the license plate, but it didn't! I still had to pay tolls! So frustrating! I won't use Hertz again!

I was quoted one price when getting the car and no one was there when we returned it to get a receipt. Just had to leave and 'hope' all worked out. Then the bill comes and it is more than $40 over what I was quoted. Because no one was there to give me a receipt (when I could have asked questions and discussed what was going on and why the difference), it is leading to my having to make phone calls to 800 numbers to try to resolve this discrepancy. Not happy about that.

I got a last minute reservation with Alamo after Budget didn’t have the car that I reserved available. Alamo let me exchange my car halfway through the rental for a better fit. No surprises with the price or service. All of the reps I interacted with were helpful and friendly.

We picked up at Airport but we didn't fly in and it was a little tricky getting to the office when we were driving in. Once inside we went to the National Desk but there was no one there, the issue was that there was a window open and it had a coat on the chair so it looked like someone had just stepped away. We waited, knocked and called out but no one came. Finally a worker passing by said we needed to go to the Alamo window and that did work fine But there should have been some sign at the National desk telling us to do that. The rest of our experiences were very good.

The staff at both locations were very nice. Wouldn’t change a thing about either. The vehicle was in bad shape. Smelled unpleasant and had what looked like dog hair all over it. A few broken things inside. Handles to compartments were missing and therefore rendered the compartment useless. It got us from point A to B, but at that price, I’d expect a clean and fully operational vehicle.

Pick up and drop off were a nightmare. Was worried I'd miss my flight because of how long it took to drop car off. The attendances could not close out my rental and that caused unnecessary delay
