Returning the car with Avis was pretty easy. Sometimes, if you rent from younger staff, they might suggest upgrades. For an extra $10 a day, I upgraded to a GMC YUKON, which was worth it. But occasionally, you get an older staff member who doesn't offer upgrades and lacks knowledge. They equated a Ford Expedition with a Chevrolet Tahoe, which is clearly smaller. While the Expedition handles better, if handling was my priority, I wouldn’t rent the largest car. The office staff were generally friendly, but the Mexican or Asian staff inspecting cars at the parking lot were quite arrogant. Definitely a bad experience. Why put on airs when you're just inspecting cars? I will never rent from Avis again. Most expensive, yet the service isn't that good!
We picked up the car at San Francisco Airport on December 28, 2014. The front desk was an Asian guy who didn't speak Chinese at first, but suddenly spoke it when he tried to sell me additional insurance, fearing I might not understand. We originally reserved a Ford Edge, but it was not available upon arrival and we were offered a KIA SUV. I said I didn't like KIA, so they finally gave us a Chevrolet Captiva for the same price. Later, I realized the Captiva is a compact SUV, while the Edge is a standard SUV, and there should have been a price difference, but we were in a hurry and didn't notice. When driving on Highway 1, a small rock chipped the windshield, but it wasn't noticeable unless you looked closely. We didn't mention it when returning the car in Los Angeles, and the return went smoothly. Overall, I'm satisfied with AVIS, but the front desk service at San Francisco Airport could be improved.
Returned at the Avis LAX location. It has poor reviews on Yelp, but when I went there, it was not crowded and quite okay.
