Pros:the drop off was great...Cons:...the pick up was terrible....I get with covid there are staffing issues but the wait was way too long...went from dollar terminal counter, to dollar parking deck counter to Hertz counter.....reserved a full size suv(Nissan pathfinder or similar)...and the ONLY thing the guy would give me is a dodge mini van....when I asked for something else, that was the only option........there were 6-7 people that had been waiting a long time behind me so I quit talking about it and took the van......but extremely disappointed Hertz/dollar/thrifty couldn't come up with an alternativeReviewed 23 Oct 2020
