Liked: Upgraded me without much fuss to Mini Van, since they didn't have my reserved Full Size SUV. Disliked: Didn't have what I had reserved, even after confirmation e-mail was received from them the day before. Had to wait in line for at least 45 mins before I was able to be helped with my reservation/pick up. Flights didn't change, plans didn't change, but some how the reservation was only til Noon my day of departure and they charged me about $200 more for the "3 hr late turn in."

The staff was friendly and helpful. Pick up and drop off was easy.

I thought it was pricey but it was the cheapest option, so could just be that I don’t rent card very often.

They need to make it explicitly clear (online and at rental kiosk) that they do not accept Debit cards so we don’t wait an hour in line at the airport only to find out that I can’t rent a car when I finally speak to the employee.

Drop off experience was not smooth. No one available to ask questions. Drop off in Kenner was somewhat of a nightmare. Next time I’ll allow at least an hour extra time

The girl in Lafayette where I rented the car was extremely nice. The Hertz people in Nashvlle when dropping the car off were extremely RUDE. The car was ok not super comfortable but ok. The rAtes are outrageous. Also, I paI’d ahead for the car with a major credit card. You guy putting another $200 hold on my acct for days is unacceptable. I had already paid for the car. Ridiculous and I don’t like being told that AFTER I’ve already rented the car. I have insurance. No reason to do that.

They are scam artist behind the counter at LFT. They literally had the audacity to try to charge me for a broken windshield that I did not break. They have no cameras around the rental car area yet claimed it was my fault. Absolute trash employees and trash company, I will never rent from hertz ever again.

The fact that Avis is reserving cars that they don’t have, especially through use of third party apps, makes traveling such a gamble. Waiting in line for over 30 minutes at your destination, just to be told there are no cars, is crazy! And then when a car comes in, during COVID, there’s are so many people waiting ahead of me, that I decided to take the car before it was cleaned. And cleaned it myself. Yeah, won’t be using Avis or Cheapflights after this. No other car rental had lines. Their parking lots were full of cars. So it wasn’t a lack of cars in general. The lack of coordination between the reservation systems of Avis and Cheapflights was the problem. When I was leaving town, there was a long line at the counter again. Crazy.

My vehicle was not cleaned before it was given to me. It was disgusting inside and outside. Additionally, one of the tires had a tire pressure issue (when it was issued to me) that required me to put air into it several times over the period I had the car.

Car was dirty with food on steering wheel and center counsel windows were so dirty I had to pull over and wife a circle so I could see out of it. Vehicle was supposed to be Covid-19 safety sanitized with a sticker and no such thing. Also I reserved a SUV and ended up in an Nissan Altima and told “oh well it’s all we have”

I drove all the way to Lafayette to pick up my rental and the employee at the desk wouldn’t allow me to pick up the SUV. Apparently a major CC was needed, bank card not accepted for SUV. However, this information was not listed online or in the fine print of the rental when I booked. I offered to provide a major CC via phone since I did not bring one with me, the employee said they had to swipe it b/c they use an “old swiper”…which you can still manually type in card info. She also spoke about running a major CC to verify my associated flight, I said I didn’t book a flight, she replied, “exactly, that’s why I need a major CC.” Nothing made any sense. I can understand rules but that employee was awful! I asked if they could pull other rental locations away from the airport to see if they had available van or suv and she refused. She stated that a major CC would be needed for a van too. I drove 30 miles back to my home and booked directly with Enterprise and then drove all the way back to Lafayette. The entire process delayed my family’s vacation by 6 hours and it turns out I did not need a major CC to rent a van. National/Enterprise/Alamo - your employee at the Lafayette airport on the morning of September 1, 2022 is what gives companies a bad reputation. She was not helpful, contradicted herself a few times, rude and lazy. I won’t be renting from this location in the future, it wasn’t worth the 4 hour hassle. I also ended paying an additional $400, as my booking was not guaranteed when I picked up from a new location. An $800 rental became a $1200 rental.

Kayak allowed us to book a car online, but when we went to pick it up we were told they had no cars available. We also waited in line for about 20 minutes while the very slow agent helped 2 customers before us...only then to be told no cars.

I really liked Neshanda (maybe I misspelled her name). Very helpful. Helped me get another vehicle since the mini van I reserved was not there.

I hate not getting the vehicle I reserved on line. You showed a mini van but that is not what I got. Why do you ALWAYS bait and switch? I do not think I have ever gotten the exact vehicle I have reserved. Why?????

Not much of anything about the rental.

Car was dirty in inside. Scratches all over outside of car. Brakes made noise because of a needed brake job, and the car had 40k miles on it. Worse rental I had in years.

I booked a Suburban or similar. Was called the day before and was asked if a mini van would be ok. I said yes. When we got there we got a Cheverolet Traverse. Not at all big enough for the people and luggage we had. Very disappointed!

Upon arriving at the Alamo counterat Lafayette regional there was a sign that said 'no cars available'. I waited for the clerk to surface thinking since I had a reservation they would have one left. She told me that all cars were gone. I asked her what the purpose of. Reservation was if there was. no car upon my arrival. She said I could take a cab and request reimbursement I then had to rent a Ford Focus for $63/ per day from a competitor

I experienced total loss with the flood in Louisiana, including 2 cars. Insurance is moving along incredibly slowly and apparently there was not rental included in our coverage. Therefore, I have to pay for everything myself. As a Realtor, a care us essential! While I will eventually be able to write it on taxes as a business expense I STILL have to pay for it. Not sure why no one seems to get that part! The affordability of the car and it's overall good condition is the KEY to my survival as a mom if busy children and an REALTOR trying to provide for my family.
