I picked up my rental very late at night and was handed keys and told to bring it back charged. I didn’t realize it was fully electric. Unfortunately that made for a terrible experience.

They rented all their cars to others due to a diverted flight. They ignored all the reservations people had made, including mine. I only got a car last minute, after waiting in line for over 30 mins, when a lady decided not to drive a huge Suburban, so I took that.

Easy pick up and drop off. Reservation was for a minivan but we got a Denali. Would’ve preferred a minivan because the trunk in the Denali was very small and a minivan trunk is great. Biggest problem was that the car absolutely reeked of marijuana. We thought it was the garage and drove away incorrectly assuming that. Tried to contact customer service when we realized it was the car, but it was late at night and they didn’t open until the next morning. They did offer a car exchange but we were an hour away at a family wedding and didn’t have the flexibility in our schedule to make the trip back to the airport.

Pros:

Staff remained professional and friendly in poor working conditions

Cons:

Leave the pick up inside the airport and have someone deliver the cars to the door or have a golf cart to take the customer out to the car, it is very difficult dragging all your luggage out to a garage not knowing where your going. A handicapped person (me) will not do it again because I have bad legs and was so sore and tired when I finally got in the car I should not have been driving especially a car I’m not used to. And no there was nobody around to offer help just a sign saying go outside where our staff is working in a dark dingy shack !

Car check over could have been done better. The driver's side mirror would not stay in place and I had to rely on the yellow warning lights on the mirror that a vehicle was near me at times.

Rental itself was fine. I had an issue at the end of my trip—my flights home were changed, and I had to modify my plans and drop off the car at a different airport (Philadelphia instead of Newark). The agent was able to modify my itinerary, but I was charged a large additional amount to do this VERY disappointed, prob will avoid Alamo in the future.

The car was good, it was a bit loud in the car, I’m not used to driving vehicles that don’t keep the outside noise outside, I had to turn on the radio to reduce the noise from the vehicle. It sounded like you could hear the noise in the back of the car somewhat like the car had an open window or something? Besides that it was easy to drive and had good leg room.

They could have had a car for me. When I got to the counter they had no cars to rent even though I had reserved online. First time I’ve had this problem. Thankfully one of the other agencies had a car for me.
