Average Experience, Lot to improve, but Positive vibes

They made us wait for 30 minutes outside the airport in 90 degrees before they sent someone to pick us up. Then they asked to show insurance declaration page otherwise they wont rent me the car. I showed them my insurance proof plus coverage etc but they were not convinced and forced me to buy insurance from them which cost me $170 extra and the total cost to rent the car reached $240 for 4 days which is totally ridiculous. They showed me its part of the agreement that is hidden somewhere down the 3 different pages and in the middle of a huge document. There is no way people are going through every page and line when they rent something on any website. If you have some exception, you must show it in the very front page in bold so people notice it but instead you do it intentionally so as to get money from your customers. Additionally, the girl was also pursuing hard to rent me sun pass while I already had my own ezpass with me. She told me ezpass is accepted only at few places and not everywhere which is a total lie. In fact, there is only florida turnpike which does not accept ezpass otherwise anywhere else you go it is accepted. All this things made my experience very bad and rest assured I am not going to rent from them again in the future. They are a thief.

Routes staff lied about pickup time and why it took so long, 1hr after flight arrived in 90 dry heat. Car was on E and was supposed to be full. Under staffed and most didn’t know what to do. Drop off was not available at flight time so had to drop off night b4 and Uber back to hotel and then to airport next day. Extra $90

Customer services was very poor. The staff was more concerned about finding a TV station (about 5 minutes scrolling Netflix) than helping waiting customers. Many customers were complaining about waiting over an hour for car and even for the shuttle. It was not opened at 6 am when customers arrived when it was supposed to be 24 hour service. Restroom (women's) was filthy and toilet a mess and I would not sit on it. The car lot itself was very disturbing and crowded and made me feel uneasy about my choice (first time). Cars crammed in everywhere on the grass and looked unprofessional.

There are 3 Easy, Easi, EZ car rental shuttles at Orlando. Took 1 of those, wrong location, shuttle back to airport, shuttle to Routes. Very confusing. At night and alone. Not sure I would rent off site again. They also insisted on a binder from my auto insurance company. In MA that is only for property. Declaration page (which I had) is for auto. Finally took care of over the phone. Then the SUV I reserved wasn't available. They tried to upgrade me to a BLACK (in FL heat - no way) oversized Jeep that looked more like a hummer. I am 59 and disabled. I would have needed a step to get in. My friend I was visiting could not possibly have gotten in. Miraculously, the Rogue was available after all. In the end, the vehicle was great and return a breeze. Oh, I was overcharged about $12 from what I authorized over the phone. I haven't called about that yet. Not cool.

Like: what i like to most is the people that works there Mike a manager and Kevin general manager , very nice .
Dislike: EVERTHING WAS NICE
