Avis Car Rental this location has the best overall quality of brand new cars to rent. I rented a car from Avis in Knoxville, Tennesse and drop it off at this location to attend my dad's funeral. A week later I rented a car from here and dropped it off at the Avis in Knoxville. This location went above and beyond customer services traveling from one state to another. read more

Believe the reviews. Rented a car two weeks ago and show up to get it. "Don't have your car...we tried calling a number to tell you" (not even close to my number on the account) This place sucks. read more

Rented a car 30 days in advance. It was not available when we arrived and they had no alternative options for us. We pre paid and the woman working the counter said she could not cancel it on our behalf and that we had to call and cancel ourselves. Very disappointing and bad customer service. She was also on her cellphone taking a call the whole time we were trying to problem solve read more

They took my money and didn't have a car for me. Sent me to the airport. They tried to charge me $500 more. Absolutely horrible.

This location disappoints every time ! They never have any vehicles, the vehicles are never cleaned to its full potential. Also, the customer service is even more disappointing. Everyone appears to have an attitude extremely not empathetic to the fact that not having fleet is highly frustrating for a customer. What I always think would be convenient considering I live close, is always an extreme waste of time. read more

Worst rental car experience. Made a reservation for full size SUV six months ago for our 5 week vacation along the east coast. When it came time to get our vehicle we were originally told they had no cars. Then told they could get us a compact car. No way that was going to work for 4 large suitcases, 2 sets of golf clubs, and passengers! They did eventually find us a minivan, but again not what we reserved. We stayed in town 5 more days and kept checking back for the full size SUV. At first we were told they'd get one in, then they didn't have it. Didn't seem to make any effort to find us one. The Avis national customer service was also no help. Bottom line- if you have to have a car, don't use this location. Honestly, overall Avis is general is terrible! read more

I normally prefer to leave good reviews because I feel like most people only want to tell the bad, but this was truly an experience that needed to be shared. The good part though was it was a quick and easy process to check in for my car . Literally less than 10 minutes. However, they gave me a super dirty car, and I had to return it. The backup vehicle was the same vehicle just a different color but at least this one had seat covers and I have my own floor mats so I decided to take it but the vehicle start shaking really badly once it gets up to 63 mph. And the back window won't roll down and whenever you're just sitting in park position, you can't just put it back in gear and go you have to turn the car off completely and restart it in order to be able to shift again. read more

Save Yourself the Trouble -- Avoid This Avis WINDY HILL MARIETTA Branch! This location has failed me twice, both experiences were incredibly frustrating and costly. First experience: I reserved a premium vehicle and was given a mid-size SUV instead. On top of that, they charged me $236 more than my original reservation! When I raised it, the staff pushed me to call customer service. Total waste of time, customer service said the issue should've been handled at the branch before the rental. But by then, I had no choice since I had a trip to make and ended up losing that money. Second experience (today): I had a paid reservation and showed up on time. The front desk rep took my name, confirmed the reservation, and told me to wait while he processed vehicle returns. 30 minutes later, he finally tells me: "Oh yeah, I don't have any cars available until tomorrow." No urgency, no apology, just handed me the number for customer service and moved on. This branch is consistently disorganized. Staff always seem flustered, overwhelmed, and poorly trained. They also run an Uber service which seems to take precedence. The office is unkempt and has none of the professionalism I've seen at other Avis locations. No courtesy calls, no heads-up, nothing. Anyway, After over an hour on the phone with various customer service reps, I was finally sent to another location an hour away. Each Avis branch is independently operated, but this one is a total embarrassment to the brand. Avoid it at all costs. read more

Made a reservation over 6 weeks ago - arrived in Atlanta and waited in line for 20 min to be told they have no cars - come back in 3 hours and there might be something - since we had a reservation some communication from Avis would have been nice - no apologizing or anything - you did us wrong Avis read more

The worst! First, no one was at the front desk and there was no sign or anything to indicate what to do/expect. Second, a guy finally came out and said he was using the bathroom. Um, thanks. The worst part is, while I made a reservation 2 days ago, they don't have any cars like the Seinfeld episode. Then the dude hides behind 'Corporate allows the bookings to continue and we are independently owned' sure, whatever. No call from them to alert they could not honor the reservation and worse even, dude finally says he has one car. You guessed it, it costs more, and no, he can't adjust the rate because 'he'd get in trouble'. Fix your crappy systems so that you can do right by your customers! If you know this is a limitation of your systems, limit the damage you do to your customer relations by communicating proactively with your customers and avoid issues like this. I cancelled my reservation, and this brand AND location are now on my 'never again' list. What. A. Waste! read more

The car rental in Marietta on 1311 Roswell Rd was very prompt and very well curtious got us in and out in no time ,i was very pleased with the way they handle things ,Thank Y'all Once Again read more

Reserved a vehicle here 5 months in advance (and paid up front!), but received a call less than 24 hours before pick up informing me that the car would not be available. Completely unacceptable, disorganized, and disrespectful. AVOID at all costs. Use another car rental company. read more

Buckle up. I scheduled a car rental online two days in advance. When I got there, I gave my name and said I'm picking up my car. The first thing the clerk said was "We don't have any cars." What? I got a confirmation email and two reminders (also asking me to purchase collision protection and paid tolls). I also got an email asking me to save time by pre-paying online. I told her this, and she asked if I ordered online. I had. She said, "That's Corporate. We're an independent branch and Corporate doesn't talk to us. They don't know what cars we have or don't have." What? Her face was dead as a stone. She'd clearly had this same conversation with customers many times before. "But I can see you in the system," she continued, "so the very next car that comes in is yours." What? You're closing in 50 minutes. And, if you have me in the system, WHY DIDN'T YOU CALL ME?! I cried -- no, I sobbed -- all the way home. I have a new job starting tomorrow that I needed this car to get to. And literally no other rental place is open on Sundays. Thanks Avis, both Corporate and independent branch, for nothing. What am I going to do now? read more

Do not rent from here. They have a business practice of overbooking, high probability you'll show up at the counter and they won't have a car. This location is not dependable or trust worthy. read more

Avis Rent A Car - Address, avoid this location. - Car Rental Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

We reserved a rental and when we arrived we were told that they didn't have our reservation AND that they didn't have any cars at all. Our trip is scheduled for tomorrow so we immediately contacted customer service where we got the run around and spent 2 hours to try to get this issue resolved and find a rental. People aren't very knowledgeable and act like they don't know what to do. Horrible experience and I don't not recommend Avis. This is the second time I've had this situation happen at Avis. read more

This is the worst rental car agency. I sometimes just think about them and look for another place to write a review. They over charge everywhere and if they know they got your back against the wall they are at their worst. Horrible company and it starts from the top down. read more

Scheduled for a rental, online chose a Kia SUV or similar. Show up, they place me in a Kia Rio. I was so tired from the crap 2 days I had that I was basically in a "it'll be fine" attitude. It's not. The inside of the car is disgusting. In the days of Covid and they didn't clean the inside of the car? And then I have to worry about them trying to place it on me? So now I gotta touch some strangers napkins and I think an almond? And crumbs. It's so gross! read more

Update: Recently, I rented from Enterprise on Cobb Parkway in Marietta, GA! The BEST experience ever. It was like night and day. The customer service is like none other. You would think they knew about my previous/horrible experience at AVIS and wanted to make it up to me but they did not. I thank GOD that I found a location I can rent from over and over again. :) Try Enterprise! read more

If I could have given -1 Stars I would have. Getting a call 10 mins before I'm scheduled to Pick up a car is not cool. Not only is it not cool but don't act as if its the customers fault because there aren't any cars, and to deliver the news with a terrible tone and Demeanor is unacceptable. Learn customer service and I would have been okay with reaching a resolution! Not cool- will never reserve from your location again! read more

The absolute worst rental service ever, never go there, they don't refund your money even when you cancel the rental. They don't notify you when the rental isn't available, and they don't keep their word when the refund is finally approved. I give them a zero out of ten. Absolute garbage, don't ever rent a car from here read more

Do not rent from the 3161 North Cobb Parkway location, or any location. I made a reservation a week before Christmas. I used my card online to reserve (Chime, but it should not matter; it's a credit card). I get to the location on CHRISTMAS EVE to be told they don't except my card. I have a seven year old daughter I had to see. I still got there, lucky me. I then get charged a $50 "no show" fee, on the same card they claim they couldn't take as payment. Called customer service. I was hung up on. And now I have to wait 10 business days for them to reverse the charge. Also, I was hung up on. I also worked for a call center before and the agents showed zero concern. Garbage company. Do not give them your hard earned money. You are just a number. read more

It's very disappointing when the location is unstaffed on a Friday afternoon and therefore there is no one to serve customers. Even more so when you're here to return a lemon picked from another location. I had forgotten why I stopped renting from Avis. Now I recall. I'm so glad my clients no longer maintain this as their "preferred" provider. Once I had a car that smelled like marijuana that they wanted me to return. That way I could get arrested for dui or whatever illegal substances were left behind. Also I had a flat tire, with a nail in it, that they charged me for. Did I mention the $1300 hold they placed on my card for an economy car I never picked up. I Thought I was saving $60 not renting from National. Boy was I wrong. read more

Avis Rent A Car - Avis Windy Hill location with soiled chair for you to sit in while you wait"10-15 " minutes for someone to attend. - Car Rental Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

Was going to reserve an economy car for 9 days. Online order started $402. As I proceeded to checkout to reserve, they taxed me 180 dollars plus bumped up price to 670.00. What kind of ripoff scam artist company are you, you want to cry about us taking covid into consideration when you're clearly hustling your customers with false advertisements with 180 dollar taxes. Will never rent from you and glad we canceled read more

horrible mworst avis rental location. horrible customer service. dirty broken vehicles!! do not rent from here!!!!

Best car rental spot! Anthony was extremely helpful. Thank you so much!

Beware this location charges you extras on what your initial contract. Always when you return the car obtain a final bill and check it. Just rented a car for a specific price and got charged 20% over. On top of that you will dealing with incompetent female worker that doesn't understand ABC customer service. read more

Absolutely the worst place to rent a car from. Lazy workers, and the customer service is horrible. I just called there to dispute a fuel charge and the chick there hung up on me. I am on the phone with the BBB as I type this. DO NOT RENT FROM THIS PLACE ! read more

Great place to rent from!!! Anthony and his team at this location truly take care of the customers and provide a car rental experience that is exceptional. This location has great pricing, nice cars, and staff that are truly there to take care of the customers. I will definitly be renting from this location in the future. read more

Avis Rent A Car - Great variety of vehicles here - Car Rental Near Me - Marietta, Georgia

Booked rental through Expedia for 12/5 while I was at the Avis line at ATL airport. AVIS employee told me that vehicle would be available upon arrival and that he had called the location that I am leaving a review for. Upon arrival 6:15 pm we found that AVIS was closed. Frustrated and out the ride from the airport to the UBER we begrudgingly headed home and decided to return in the morning to pick up the vehicle. Upon returning in the AM I was told there were not any vehicles in the category I had reserved. The employee working the counter offered no alternative and instead spent his time deflecting blame to "you booked this on Expedia." "There's no phone number on the reservation." "These cars are only at the airport." "24 hours notice for these specialty vehicles" All I wanted to know was how he could help me and instead I received nothing but excuses and a lackluster attitude. This was the absolute worst rental car experience and looks like I'll be going back to using Enter**** for my car rental needs. There's one in the same parking lot, you might as well save your time and go there first. Had me in an out in 20 minutes with a lower price. read more

I made my exit out of Georgia by way of a one-way rental option from the Marietta Avis location. I was ecstatic to find that I didn't have to get into the ATL airport hustle and bustle, but was still able to get a one-way option at a great rate. I will admit that I booked through a third party, and there was a minor issue that my confirmation email indicated that I'd set my pickup and drop off locale as the LEX option. So, I was a bit nervous when I arrived. The location was super convenient to the interstate, and seemed to be in a good area of Marietta. I mean, despite waiting out front for them to open, I never felt there was a safety concern. The opened at noon on Sunday. They even had a chair out in the shopping center breezeway, which was a nice gesture. The nice lady that assisted the three of us who all waited on our cars before opening time, let us in early and immediately started waiting on the other two vultures, I mean patrons. I was there before those two, but one of the ladies indicated that she called headquarters and was told that the cars at this location were limited, so what does she do? Wheezel her way in front of the "line". People like that kill me! Excuse me while I climb down off my soapbox now. I must also mention that I didn't say a word to either of them that cut in front of me, I bit my tongue pretty hard though. I think the rental car gods were looking down and blessed me. Checkout was a breeze once I got to the front of the line. I was literally checked out and to "my" car within 3 minutes. The car was a brand new Ford Fusion hybrid, I must add. It got 40 miles to the gallon! I'll take that! Oh, and I got a cheaper rate then the other two peaches in front of me who announced their daily rate and insisted that the Avis employee compare their rates and make sure they got sufficient reward points. read more

Tony was great! Accommodated me well! Cool staff! Great interpersonal skills, patient and clean.

The person who helped me when I got the car and the person who helped me when I dropped it off were both helpful and professional. They made the process as hassle free as possible. My wait time was very short even though they were helping other clients both times. read more

We rented a car and it was not cleaned. They basically flipped the car as soon as the previous renter returned it and I know this because they rented ours out even before we left the parking lot. The trunk was disgusting. This is not a corporate account and frankly no one cares who works here. read more

I too wish I could leave zero stars. This is the worst place to rent a vehicle from on the planet! I was renting a vehicle from this location to use for Uber. The company gave me a vehicle that had a recall on it. This caused a payment issue. Once the issue was resolved they illegally took me off the road, started charging my account all types of fake charges, and lied to Uber about me threatening an agent. The owner of this location is liar and a scammer. The employees are unprofessional. Avis needs to dissolve any relationship they have with this owner(YNOT Ride Solutions). Another thing , if you drive for Uber you cannot use your personal number when contacting them because they will not answer or answer put you on hold and never return to the phone. I will never rent from Avis or any of its affiliates again. read more

Very unprofessional owner. Set up rental night before and was supposed to pick up vehicle from this location at 10 a.m. when they opened. 6 people in line when we arrived and only one employee. Waited 45 minutes to hear I'm gonna have to call the owner. The owner tells the employee that he doesn't do insurance claims on the weekend so we'll have to come back Monday. Avis will hear about this as will our insurance co. And there's not a chance in hell we'll be returning Monday. read more

This establishment has zero to no professionalism. I'm so tired of everyone using the pandemic as an excuse for poor customer service and delivery. This is the second time that I've made a reservation with this establishment months ahead only to find out a day or so before picking up my vehicle that what I expected is not going to be there. There's a little no concern or regard for the fact that they don't fulfill comittments. They simply tell you "we don't think we're going to be able to accommodate you."Previously one of the guys who worked there told me that the owner will take premium vehicles and give to his friends or accommodate others that will pay a higher price and totally disregard your rental contract. I always use Costco rental so I'm low on the totem pole. I'm done using this agency or Avis for that matter because I've complained to HQ that this agency does not fulfill commitments. I hop that anyone who reads this review understand that this is a farce for a business And they should either double book or choose another rental service agency that's more reliable and that you can contact. They never answer their phones and desk personnel is generally lackluster, unprofessional and unresponsive. Thanks Christian for being no help at all! read more

I have dealt with Anthony and his staff now for over 5 years now. I have no desire to leave this business. Always helps me with a clean, good running vehicle. This will always be my spot for car rentals in Metro Atlanta. read more

This place is a complete waste of time and energy. The previous reviews I'm assuming were family members or employees. Went to pick up rental with confirmation and was told at counter that due to holidays , apparently I was supposed to call and confirm my rental.......huh? Called corporate office and even customer service told the agent that a call wasn't necessary....but no...it seems this branch has their own thing going on. Been an "preferred" customer for a while and have rented from other locations many, many times. But this was special....and after 40 min the agent apologized ( after acting crazy) and then tried to get me in a car . Wow..walked away and he followed repeatedly apologizing......wtf?? Really just wanted to rent a car. Rent at your own risk. This place is suspect. Wish I could give it no stars.. seriously, none! read more

I was apprehensive after reading a review or 2 but I was met with a very professional staff upon my arrival. With a packed lobby they acknowledged me right away. The car was ready and my process was painless. I called to extend my rental and they were very accommodating. I've learn people tend to be impatient, the staff did well with dealing with a not to nice customer who was being rude. I will definitely use this location in the future. read more
