Pros:The car smelt freshCons:I could have gotten what I wanted and the time I wanted it. Your employees could use better interpersonal skills. Customers relations. Took me almost a week to get a car . I was not impressed I called and never once got a call back from any rep that I talked toReviewed 22 Aug 2020

Pros:Staff was far from helpful. Seemed very miserable. I ended up cancelling my reservationCons:Let people know online when making a reservation. That you need a MasterCard. And that you don’t accept visa. Kind of shitty. Making a reservation online put all my info in. All my card info. Just to show up. And not even be able to get it cause they can’t swipe my Visa card. What a jokeReviewed 5 Aug 2020

Pros:The truck was clean.Cons:1) We reserved a car and when we showed up they only had two pickup trucks to choose from. 2) The had the vehicle in 4-wheel drive mode, instead of 2-wheel so we drove three hours in that mode. Would assume that we got worse gas mileage. 3) Overall gas usage, and cost, was higher just by using a big truck instead of the car that we reserved. 4) Big truck made is almost impossible to find a parking spot when driving in downtown Calgary. Truck was almost too high for the parking garage for the hotel that we stayed in. 5) Finally we were charged the rate for a truck as opposed to the rate for the car that we reserved.

Business Trip to EdmontonPros:I rented a VW Golf economy car which was clean and ran fine. It was also very fuel efficient. I drove the car all week with a round trip to Calgary on two tanks of gas.Cons:I reserved this car at an office located off the airport. This office was closed on Sunday when I arrived so I tried to pick up a car at the airport rental car desk from the same company but I was quoted a cost that was more than double what I was originally quoted. I was told that the cost was so high due to the taxes that are charged when you pick up a rental car at the airport.Reviewed 18 Jun 2016

I didn't even get the carCons:I'm a 22yo driver, I have a defensive driving course and a safe backing course. But even with those qualifications the rental doubled in price because I'm under 25. I wound up just canceling it because of the 100%+ inflation rate. Add in waiting 20minutes for someone to come to the front desk. Overall highly disappointed in this ventureReviewed 9 May 2017

Total frustrationCons:They over booked thier office. My reservation was a premium. They had one car. Ford (in no way it was premium). I agreed. They they slapped me with 100 km a day ONLY. my trip to jasper is 700 km. Thats lots of money for over mileage. I told to terminate and send me home. We didn't go anywhere. My wife and little kid were extremely sad and disappointed. Terrible experienceReviewed 27 Aug 2018
