Newcastle Williamtown Airport car rental reviews and directory
Terrible. Ordered and paid for an intermediate size SUV as I needed the hatch for golf clubs. Got given a Camry (4 door and a boot). Finally got given a small SUV with not even an offer of a cheaper price. I will never use Hertz again and I will never book through a third party. Hertz blamed you and they blamed me for using you. Never again.
