Lisa, Nov 2020

KAYAK

Pros:

Staff was very helpful and friendly and yes, pick up/drop off was great. It’s nice that they were open after the last flight came in and that the desk was at the airport vs offsite

Cons:

I haven’t received my receipt by email yet. It’s been 24 hours since drop off. I really need my recipes so I can turn it in for reimbursement for work. With AVIS, they email my receipt immediately so it doesn’t slow down me getting paid. But I was happy with everything else

Sean at the Wauasau, WI airport was so helpful. We had car trouble on our way home from my Dad's funeral and he was very professional, showed compassion and got us back on the road with a rental. Really impressed.

Pros:

The car was mostly clean.

Cons:

Any and all. The rental associate sounded like a used car salesman trying to nickel and dime you. I got inaudible sounds and shoulder shrugs when I didn’t take the “bumper to bumper” coverage, an extra $68/day. The first car I spend 10 minutes packing and installing a car seat sounded like I was dragging a bumper when I applied the brakes. The same associate told me it was because it sat for a week. I told her I’m not trusting my family to a car that has brakes that sound that bad. Car was changed and again she couldn’t help herself, “you could upgrade for another $258”. This was hands down the worst rental car experience. I felt like I was being set up and robbed all at the same time.
