The rental and return process was very quick, and the staff even said not to worry about small scratches when returning the car. They were so generous. Renting a car in the US is incredibly convenient.

The environment wasn't very clean with some trash around. They required me to buy a full tank of fuel and suggested returning the car empty, claiming that gas prices in Los Angeles were much higher than in San Francisco. This arrangement seemed a bit deceitful. The price for a full tank was locked at $3.xx per gallon, which was higher than the average gas price in San Francisco, which is usually around $2.77 per gallon. Additionally, it’s hard to return a car completely empty; I still had nearly half a tank. Many gas stations in Los Angeles also have prices around $2.77 per gallon. So, returning the car with an empty tank is a rip-off. The rental company should have offered an option to return the car with a full tank, but the staff didn't give any choice and just completed the paperwork. Being new to the place, I had no option but to accept it.

The counter staff was very friendly and did not try to sell insurance.

The front desk staff had an excellent attitude, patiently answering our questions and bringing a warm, welcoming feel to our travel-weary selves. After picking up the car, we were pleasantly surprised to find multiple vehicles to choose from! We quickly chose an almost-new Volkswagen Tiguan with only 700+ miles driven! The car ran smoothly throughout our trip, leading to a very pleasant rental experience!

Alamo's service is great and the prices are very affordable. The best part is that you don't need to pay in advance; you can pay at the store. Both picking up and returning the car were very quick, especially the return process, which only involved a brief check before we were on our way. Very good experience, will choose them again next time!
