Nice car, simple pickup /dropoff, excellent service

Issues with the car were resolved.

Very patient, the service was excellent and quick.

From 2014 to 2016, I went on self-driving trips to the US three years in a row, experiencing three rental companies: Dollar, Alamo, and Hertz. In 2015 and 2016, I booked through zhuche.com, and I was quite satisfied with their service. This time, I rented from Hertz, which is known as a big company, but my experience was just average. First, the service attitude: It's a plus that they didn't try to upsell insurance, but the front desk service was just passable. They didn't demonstrate how to use the E-pass, and there was an additional $20+ equipment fee for the E-pass that wasn't mentioned beforehand. The rental contract has too much content and the font is too small to read in a short time. So, an average rating. Second, the vehicle provided: I originally booked a RAV4, but it wasn't available, so they gave me a Jeep Compass. The car's space was small, everything except the gear was manually adjusted, high fuel consumption, and low power. There was a strong and unpleasant perfume smell in the car. A poor rating. In terms of vehicle quality, Alamo is the best. I strongly recommend future renters to choose Alamo if the prices are similar.

The car was great but ot wasn't as clean as I would have expected it to be.

The car was booked for 9am. When we arrived there was a long lineup of people waiting to pickup their car. When we finally got to the counter, the lady said it was going to be another 2 hours before we could have the car. We had people waiting at multiple locations and a long drive ahead that we wanted to reach before dark. So we went out of our way to rearrange transportation to bring everyone to the Hertz location, at additional expense to us. Then the car was ready after approximately an hour which meant trying to find people mid transportation to the pick-up location. After getting the keys to the car, we were told that we needed to walk multiple blocks to get our car with our luggage and a member of our team with walking issues. Not impressed.
