    Rented a car for a day to go up to Sedona. I made my reservation only a couple hours before picking up and they had something ready for me. Super easy check-in process. People are here to assist in picking a car. Received a really great upgrade and really enjoyed the Genesis. Can't recommend this rental agency enough.

    Super fast to check in and get your car using their app. We were only 3rd in line, but an employee walked us and the couple in front of us through using the app so we didn't have to wait. Accessing the car, choosing which one we wanted, leaving the terminal and returning the car went so smoothly, I can't understand why all places can't be like this! Great job, Alamo! 6/2026

    Long slow lines...

    Reservation confirmation promised "Accelerated Check-in" at a self-service kiosk. BE WARNED there are NO self-service kiosks at Sky Harbor, only long slow lines.

    Always a great experience with Alamo. Once you have it setup it is flight lands, get over to where Alamo is and pick your car. This time I got a Charger and it was a blast to drive. The folks working here were super friendly and easy to get in and out Highly recommend.

    Alamo Rent A car was smooth and easy. Thankfully, they were not too busy when we picked up our car. We had a choice between 3 cars (2 Nissan Sentras, or 1 Kia Sol). Customer service was helpful and friendly. We were ready in less than 8 minutes. The return of the car was just as smooth and easy. It's one of the best rental experiences.

They expect you to use their phone app to review and report additional damage. However, the app was very difficult to use, especially with it being so dark. The car was dirty, so we had to wipe off the dirt to check for damage. I needed to have an attendant assist me with photographing all the extra damage and reporting it through their app. For instance, there was unreported physical damage to the body of the car, and cigarette burns to the upholstery. I had to trust that the attendant got everything that I pointed out, as there was nothing for me to review before I had to sign approval. I rented the car on April 1, 2026, and returned it on April 6th. On April 2nd I received an email asking for an explanation of additional damage that they found on the vehicle, just hours after I left the lot. This was pre-existing damage that they were now blaming me for. I didn't see their email until I returned home from my trip. The email only had a link to a page where I was supposed to explain the reason for the damage, even though it existed before I rented the car. I attempted several times to contact them by phone, but the AI agent kept sending me to someone in another country who only spoke Spanish, who would then hang up on me. Apparently all phone assistants are in the Philippines. I finally found someone who spoke English, but they had no way to send me confirmation of my report of this issue. So I don't know what I can do if they try to charge me for pre-existing damage. I won't ever use this company again. I'll stick with only American-based companies. The car was fine to drive, but the experience was terrible.

    Based on my Yelp photos, I've rented here a couple of times and I have to say, for an experience…read morethat can usually be very painful (renting a car, that is), the team at National Car Rental at PHX do a great job. Most recently, I rented a car for a week and after taking the train to the rental car center, I was able to skip the desk and head straight to the Emerald Aisle to pick any available car. I would highly recommend setting up an account with National and taking advantage of this.... being able to skip a line at the counter is a blessing. In any event, we went to the aisle, picked out our car and were off after a brief stop at the gate to check everything. Return was also quick and painless. Josh did a thorough inspection of the car, which we returned with a full tank and in pristine shape, and we were on our way in no time. It's amazing how frictionless the experience can be, as opposed to how awful other companies (I'm looking at you Hertz) can make it. I highly recommend National.

The staff are friendly and professional. I've had them offer to give me a bit of a discount when something inconvenient happens, and I'm glad they have that authority. This last time the car I rented had a lot of fingerprints on the windows and the carpeting in the trunk of the car was stained. There was also a splotch of something in the cupholder (I didn't try to remove it so I don't know how stuck on it was). That said, it didn't affect performance of the car and overall I still enjoyed driving it. The pricing seems okay. I think there are cheaper rental companies, but some of what I pay for is convenience. I'll keep using them when I visit Phoenix for work.

They do add an additional 29 dollars to your total rental. Also it's 18 bucks to simply rent from the airport. You can check in on the app and it will direct you to your vehicle. They have a directory which will clarify which area to pick a car. Honestly they were all the same whether gold or not. You pick a car and drive out.

Even when we textex you 24 hours in advance to check in that does not mean that you will be cleared by the time you arrive." Then the consumer can make their own decisions.
