Dollar didn't have a car for me when I arrived. They tried REALLY hard to upsell me, but wouldn't give me the car I reserved. Eventually after I raised a big fuss, they magically seemed to have a car.Reviewed 2025 May 23

Awful. Told online to pick vehicle up at 3. To arrive and the place be closed and door locked, customers were present inside being served. Whilst waiting for someone to come to the door one staff member looked at me, put his coat on and left, whilst another shouted through the glass that they were closed. When I explained I had a booking to collect a car at 3 he told me to go away as he had no cars left. Awful service.Reviewed 2025 May 09

Drop off was easy. Other than that, horrible experience. Did web check in so I could skip the line (their words). Ha! Had to wait in 2 lines. Took over an hour. Then was given a car with over 60K miles, no floor mats, holes in the interior , weird stains everywhere. I would have taken it back or refused it but we were already tired of waiting in line.Reviewed 2024 Jul 17

I chose this Kayak/Dollar deal because it was cheaper than other options, but then I ended up paying an additional $120 upon check in and the desk clerk was not able to tell me what it was all for. She also wouldn't guarantee that the hatch back car would have a trunk cover which is a ridiculous risk for a rental car company to take in the Bay Area. Thankfully the guy who gave me the keys was very kind and switched out the car for one where my bags would not be exposed to potential thieves.Reviewed 2024 Jun 26
