Great car, greater customer service.

Pros: After a nightmare flight experience and cancellation, my wife and I were left needing to rent a car for a 12 hour drive back home. Our alamo rental experience was wonderful, from the top-notch customer service at the counter, to the very clean, almost brand new car, and even to the replacement car we needed halfway home after we ran over a nail and got a flat tire. 10/10, would rent from Alamo again.

Pros: Drop off was a breeze!

Cons: Pick- up was not the greatest. We waited close to 45 minutes in line before getting to the counter. Then the agent was more interested in chatting than working. The Alamo line appeared to go much faster and smoother. Also, the agent would say you want this correct and if we weren't paying attention, we would have paid for things we didn't need. It was bad enough we went with the 'special' upgrade just to shut him up. When we were done, the line behind us was close to 20 people deep. Plus the cat smelled like smoke but after waiting so long, we just went with it.

They attempted to blame me for not arriving at my scheduled time; however, I called Budget 2 separate times to let them know I was still coming and was running late.

Pros: I like the van that they gave us. It was nice and clean.

Cons: So, my flight was delayed and I tried calling to let them know that but the number that they gave me in the email was disconnected. I had to call priceline to get to them. When I called to let them know I will be late they just said to call them when I get to the airport. So when I arrived at the office there was no one in the front. I waited a while until they finally came out and then when I told her who I was and what I was renting the lady said that it would be good to let them know that I was going to be late and I told her I did call to let them know. Seem like they don't have any good communication. Also we had to gas up right away because the gas tank was full.

Appreciate staying open late but no music.

Pros: Economy stayed open late when my flight was delayed. Other car rental companies didn't.

Cons: The radio was on mute. I couldn't figure out how to unmute. I called Economy and they couldn't help then. They said they would find out and call me back. They never called back.

Actually got the SUV I ordered!

Pros: Economy had a van that picked us up at the airport in less than five minutes. It only took another 10 minutes and we were in our SUV heading to the beach !

Cons: I would have liked to have known to call economy because they did not have a kiosk at the airport. Luckily I had by rental papers and the number was on it.

Pros: The manager was kind and helpful when I contacted her.

Cons: They gave me a compact car when I paid for a mid-size car, and insisted that a Ford Focus was mid-size. They also charged me more than was agreed upon. Eventually I called the manager from my Hotel room and she refunded the difference, however I ended up with a car I did not have enough room in that had a distinct odor.

Cons: Car rental was not at airport, was offsite at an old hotel which was very strange. Shuttle was broken down upon arrival and not running for our departure. We had to take an Uber to the airport which was very inconvenient because we were traveling with a car seat and a small child. This location should not be included as an airport location.

Never rent from Dollar

Pros: Dollar lists themselves as "being at the airport". They are not at the airport and there was no shuttle, no counter, no phone. When we called the LOCAL phone number to have them bring us a car or shuttle us to their location, NO ONE ANSWERED THE PHONE. We called again and again, but as you can imagine, you can only stand around the airport for so long before you give up and rent a car from one of the counters at the airport.

Cons: Terrible service and zero help from the 1800 phone number. No one answered the phone at the local office. We landed at 8:00 pm - so after business hours - but certainly not the middle of the night. There is no excuse for Dollar Rental Car leaving us high and dry. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT RENT FROM THEM!
