Pros:Pickup experience was a nightmare and I was placed into a dirty car.Cons:Speed at checkout. They should have cleaned the car... esp during Covid. They should have placed me into a different car if they didn’t have time to clean the car they put me into. I also could not get ahold of customer service for the life of me. Awful experience.Reviewed 2021 Apr 15

Pros:Drop off at SFB was easy. We had to change our drop-off location mid-trip and this was easy to do over the phone using the “rental extension” phone number on our initial receipt.Cons:Was traveling with an IL driver’s license that had its expiration date extended 6 months by the state of IL due to Covid-19. No issues with TSA in 3 different airports. No issues anywhere except Hertz in St. Petersburg where the store manager would not allow me to pick up the car. In the state of FL, Hertz does not have good options for dealing with toll roads. You can either pay an exorbitant amount of money up-front (for our rental period something like $70, way more than the amount we would pay in tolls), or you can get charged afterwards for the tolls you use + a $10 administrative fee for each. There are several toll roads where you can only “pay by plate” or transponder and there is no option for paying with cash, so if you don’t know the area and your navigation takes you on one of these roads, Hertz has you over a barrel.Reviewed 2021 Apr 11

Pros:The Hertz rental at that location no longer exists. I took an Uber to and from the location from my home, $18. I waited outside on hold for over 20 minutes while an agent tried to find another location with a car. No such luck. My Christmas plans were ruined.Cons:Update your website to reflect accuracy.Reviewed 2020 Dec 29

Pros:Staff was friendly, courteous and helpful. Pick-up and drop-off went smoothly and efficiently.Cons:I prefer traveling with a spare tire. As I vaguely recall, this vehicle had a spare. Fortunately I did not need it, but to me it is a deal-breaker NOT to have one.Reviewed 2019 May 29
