Picked up the car at Melbourne Airport, drove along the Great Ocean Road, and returned the car at Me

Very bad!

Arrived half an hour early and still completed the car rental process easily and quickly. They didn’t have the 5-seater Highlander I reserved but upgraded me to a 7-seater for free after some discussion. My reservation included Max Cover, and later I scratched the side of the car in an underground parking lot. When returning the car, the staff just checked it and assured me that with Max Cover, I wouldn't have to pay anything. This kind of service and insurance truly provides peace of mind. When renting in Australia, I only trust Hertz!

The car rental procedures at Hertz were very simple, both for picking up and returning the vehicle. For the return, they just did a quick inspection of the exterior. I only bought basic insurance and they didn't push for more coverage. The vehicle inspection was straightforward. Due to a long waiting time during pickup, they generously gave a free tank of gas to every customer waiting. A big company with a big heart!

I personally felt the staff was not very friendly. I was asked a question by an employee and didn't understand, and it was pretty obvious they were a bit unfriendly about it. The car had a lot of scratches both in the front and the back, so I took many pictures since I was worried there might be issues when returning the car. But fortunately, the return process went smoothly.

Like: Having not rented a car for a long time this was such a pleasure to go to the counter and get the car no worries!
Dislike: Nothing really. Very satisfied customer.
