A
4.0 Mediocre
Pros: - cheapest option available, and a car is a car Cons: - car itself smelled odd (I suspect cigarette smoke masked by air freshener) and had visible grime in multiple areas of center console: staff advised that the smell was actually the soap they used to clean the car (!). - repeatedly tried to upsell us to a larger car and to charge us extra for a toll pass despite my explaining we didn’t need a larger car or a toll pass - advised we should pay more for a larger car as we were going to “the mountains”, again despite me explaining our trip would be entirely on interstate highways - tried to pre-sell us a tank of gas by stating they were “definitely” cheaper than anywhere in the vicinity. Transpires the gas station literally across the street was 10c/gallon cheaper. Summary: - cheapest option but expect a mediocre / dirty car and aggressive dishonest sales tactics

10.0 Wonderful
Pickup had a long line that went slow. Great value and good car. Drop off was quick and easy
C
10.0 Wonderful
It was a very easy process, the car was really nice and clean and the people were very helpful and friendly
A
2.0 Poor
I have paid for an SUV, I received an Sedan. Also, the insurance papers were expired.
J
6.0 Okay
I waited in line for about 30 minutes and then had to wait about another 20 minutes for someone to bring my car to me. Other rental car companies figure out long ago how to have your keys ready for you and tell you which spot to walk to. A long line for check-in and filling out forms is beyond their control if many flights arrive at the same time, etc. But the process of getting your keys and walking to your car should be so much easier. My car was fine - the outside was noticeably damaged with scrapes and dents. If I hadn't already waited nearly an hour for it, I might have asked for a different car, but I didn't want to chance one more hour. On the postive side, the price was far better than most other companies hear DIA.
P
8.0 Very Good
There was some discrepancy with the pickup location of the car
D
4.0 Mediocre
The cost of the car was probably double expected, if not more. They upsell and overcharge.
A
2.0 Poor
I would never rent it was a waste of time transportation shuttle and proff of residence itwas a nightmare
C
6.0 Okay
I was initially given a car that wasn’t smelling clean and had a slight rattle sound. They were helpful in exchanging for another car
T
10.0 Wonderful
Great help at pick up. Everything went smoothly. Will use them again.
