Free downgrade the rental... This location is off the airport on route 1, next to McDonald. The place looks poorly maintain. Reserved two standard SUV, a few weeks ago. when I arrived the parking lot were empty (less than 20 cars, no minivan, nor full-size SUV.) Advantage's rep said 'its long weekend.' [pick up: 9am Sun 2/18/17 President day weekend] Only one standard SUV available (2 of 3 Santa Fe having trouble with permit, not available for rent) The 2nd rental expected return 5 hours later, Advantage rep offer to downgrade to smaller SUV. I got stranded nothing else they can do but take smaller Mitsubishi outlander (which park next to permit issued Santa Fe) Luckily this is airport location.. Otherwise my trip would have been screw up by Advantage. Better rent else where Fun fact: shuttle driver washed the car without vacuum while u wait.

Is there an early drop off at DCA-Virginia location?

Good afternoon, For faster assistance please contact (800) 777-5500.

I have booked a Europcar rental and now I find out it actually is Advantage where I am to pick up the car. Is it the sqme fleet or just Advantage customer service and Europcar fleet?

Pain point today was 30 minute wait to leave the parking garage.

The first time I had to wait for a long time because there was only one person working the desk, but I got a decent car. The second time, there was a huge delay because they had promised too many rentals. I waited for an hour to get my car (still that one unfriendly lady at the counter); there was a super long line; and there were probably 5-6 other groups waiting for their cars. When I finally got the car, it smelled like smoke and a faint hint of marijuana. By then, I was late to my appointment and desperate so I took it. Overall, a terrible experience. Do not rent from this Hertz (or from Hertz at all). Note: somehow none of the other rental car agencies had large groups of people waiting around and desperate for a car. They did not have extra cars to rent, but managed not to overbook in such a massive way.

We went through Costco travel, so I did not see the poor reviews until after we rented our car…read more Avis also represents budget at this location. We found out the hard way that if you're flying into Reagan airport, you don't just hop on the car rental shuttles roaming around, you actually have to catch the Avis shuttle not the car rental shuttle, otherwise you'll be whisked off to the wrong location. Once we figured that problem out, we had a pretty easy check in and received our Buick crossover and were on our way. We had it for five days for $387. We probably drove it less than 100 miles during that time since we were staying downtown DC where most things are within walking distance. Returning the vehicle took less than five minutes and we were already on the shuttle back to the airport in no time. Just be sure to return your car with a full gas tank and look through those 30 pages of terms. Apparently not everybody here has had as good a story as our experience, but things went well for us. And just as an added note, if you plan on staying at a hotel in DC, it is best not to rent a car if you're staying at a hotel because parking could cost you at least $60 a day or More, not to mention the high cost of parking garages in the area. It's best to Uber or get a taxi to your hotel and spare yourself the expense. Informative photos included.

It would have been helpful if someone had pointed out some controls on the Nissan Rogue, my own vehilce a little different, but I figured them out.l; On returning car, Alex, a want-to-help kind of guy was all smiles and upbeat.

We recently rented a vehicle from Enterprise Rent-A-Car at Ronald Reagan Washington National…read moreAirport and had a disappointing experience with one of the representatives, Gustavon. During the rental process, Gustavon was very persistent in trying to upsell additional insurance coverage at an extra cost of $30 per day. We clearly explained multiple times that we already have full coverage through our GEICO policy, but the pressure continued. What stood out most was the tone and approach -- it felt less like a recommendation and more like pressure. When handing us the rental agreement, he also made a point to highlight the items we had declined, which felt unnecessary and added to the discomfort. At one point, it also seemed like our out-of-state driver's licenses (South Dakota) were being used as a reason to push the extra coverage more aggressively, which didn't sit right with us. We understand that offering additional coverage is part of the process, but there is a clear line between informing customers and continuing to push after a decision has been made. Unfortunately, this experience crossed that line for us. We hope management takes this feedback seriously and reinforces a more respectful, customer-focused approach moving forward.

From the start, the process was smooth. The shuttle from the airport to the rental car depot was quick and easy, and the real game changer was using the "skip-the-counter" option. I signed up through the email link--took a couple tries to go through, but once it did, it was seamless. I went straight to car pickup without wasting time in line. I won't be going back to the counter again. The moment I walked into the lot, I was greeted by Isiah, who was cheerful, professional, and exactly the kind of person you want to see after a long flight. I even told him how refreshing it was to be welcomed by someone genuinely smiling. He quickly scanned my barcode, then WALKED ME TO my vehicle options. He took the time to explain the pros and cons without rushing, and together we landed on a Hyundai Tucson--which turned out to be the perfect choice. Practically brand new with under 400 miles, clean, comfortable, and exactly what I needed. Checkout was fast and efficient, and I was on the road in minutes. This was one of the easiest and most pleasant rental experiences I've had. Isiah is a real asset to Alamo, and this level of service is why I'll continue renting from them going forward. Highly recommend.
