I liked the fast and quick exit from the pickup location. The bar code was quick and easy. Returning was also a breeze. The only thing which needs attention is to check why you get a extra charge after paying for the rental in advance.Reviewed 2026 Nov 11

The flight landed and the entire flight of people went to pick up a car. There were 2 people working. The line took one and a half hours. I got to the front and provided my rental information. I had reserved a mini van. I was told they had no more vans. I said do you have my reservation to which they said yes. I said the reservation keeps the car there. I was told that’s not how it works. I was offered 2 different options they had. I have 4 children. A van would have been big enough for 4 car seats, 2 suitcases, and a double stroller. The options he provided were not sufficient. I had to stand and yell saying I wasn’t taking less. Finally after holding up the line for another 20 minutes they walked outside and found a Wagoneer. The vehicle was perfect. In the end everything worked out. However, I’m rating the experience very low because it was aggravating reserving a vehicle months in advance to which was not there and the time it took of almost 2 hours from getting off the plane to driving away. Drop off was perfect and easy.Reviewed 2026 Nov 10

People working at the counter were extremely rude and it took 2+ hours to wait in line before I made it to get my reservation. Then they said my car wasn't available and up charged me to get a car now, despite arriving shortly after my booking time and providing my flight information. Car was dirty.Reviewed 2026 Nov 09

The staff was very friendly and helpful when we picked up and dropped off the car. The car was clean and worked like a charm. We got good gas mileage. It was extremely comfortable. My husband was so impressed by the car. He actually looked it up as we never drove a jeep SUV before. Smooth ride, best car we’ve ever rented.Reviewed 2026 Nov 09
