I prepaid for my reservation for an important trip and they charged my credit card with full amount in advance. I showed up to Hertz location but desk agent said she rented my car off to someone else. What a joke! She was also very unprofessional and called me “disgusting”. Horrible experience.Reviewed 8 Nov 2022

Due to a shortage of compact cars I was given an "upgrade" to a Nissan Altima. The car was too big to drive easily around my neighborhood with its narrow streets. After a week of calling and occasionally stopping in at the rental office I was finally able to get a Chevy Spark, the car I originally reserved. After that everything was fine. Service at the rental office was very good, but they did not have the promised inventory. The lack of inventory didn't seem to be the fault of the staff at the very cramped location of the rental office. The location doesn't allow storage of more than about 10 cars. I found Hertz's telephone and online assistance practically nonexistent. The only way to get the service I paid for was to do a lot of leg work myself. I will probably not use Hertz again because of this experience.Reviewed 24 Jun 2021

Pros:In the morning at pick up, Chris was helpful. He let me know that I could bring my car back a bit later than original time since I rented it for the day. The front door said open 8-530pm but Chris said 5pm and probably a bit beyond that time for closing, since things had changed a bit. I got stuck in unexpected traffic and my ETA was one minute after 5pm. I called at 430 pm and let the guy (no name) I was hoping to be there before five but it could be 501pm. He said they would not be there. I said I really hope you are because he told me that there was no drop box and I was leaving in the morning before they opened. I arrived at 501pm and the door was locked the gate to the rental lot was closed but not locked and no one came to the door. There was now a letter on the front door that was not there in the morning at pick up that said counter hours 8-4pm. So I called Hertz and the customer service agent told me to drop it at the airport. Wow. 1 minute delayed cost me 90 minutes of additional time and drive. Thank you to the hertz guy at the airport. Wonderful.Reviewed 15 May 2021
