My husband and I decided to rent a car from Alamo Rent A Car for our trip to San Antonio. We got a…read moregreat price of $50 a day! This turned out to be so much cheaper than taking an Uber and we had the freedom to explore and go places whenever we wanted. The counter where we picked up our rental car was slow and there were three separate lines that went to the same counter. This ended up causing a lot of confusion and frustration. The car drop-off was very easy and took only a few minutes. We got to choose from a variety of cars. The reservation matched the car that we drove off in. The car was clean and comfortable. I would rent from Alamo Rent A Car again.

Gene and his team greeted us upon arrival and made all the paperwork go smooth and quick.

I would like to address a few concerns regarding my recent car rental experience. Firstly, I expect…read moreto have the vehicle I originally requested. If that car is unavailable, I do not want to be charged extra for a vehicle I did not ask for, nor do I want suggestions for a smaller vehicle that does not meet my needs. When I initially received mid size SUV, the radio and screen were not functional. I believe I should have received a discount for this inconvenience, especially since the alternative vehicle was not clean/washed. However, due to my urgency, I accepted it. I also noticed that I was charged extra for fuel without my consent. I prefer to refuel the car myself and did so at the exact level that was given to me (3/4 of a tank). Despite these issues during my visit on 4/4, at the St. Mary's location, I appreciate the flexibility I was given to change my return date to a different location without extra charges. The pros were that picking up the vehicle was quick and there wasn't a long line.

I recently rented a vehicle from FOX Rent A Car and, while the agent at the counter was courteous…read moreand acknowledged my request to decline Supplemental Liability Coverage, I was still charged for it on my final bill. I explicitly informed the agent that I would use my personal insurance, and they assured me the charge would be removed along with a fuel adjustment, totaling about $150. I kept a copy of my agreement with notes confirming this conversation, but I have had to contact customer service to request the refund. It's frustrating that this issue occurs despite clear communication, and it seems that other customers have experienced similar problems with unauthorized charges. While the staff were polite at the counter, the billing practices and lack of accuracy make the experience disappointing. I hope the company addresses this issue promptly and ensures customers aren't charged for services they did not request.

Worst car rental experience of my life. If you're contemplating renting with hertz, thrifty or…read moredollar DO NOT do it. Picked up the vehicle it was dirty inside and out and they said they weren't able to even wash the outside. Looked like someone spilt a milkshake in the back and there were ants all over the inside of the car. Not to mention one of the tires went flat within 30 minutes of getting it. No one answered at the pick up location in Katy so I give the choice to drive the car all the way to Houston airport or Austin... I was headed to San Antonio. Finally got them to allow me pick up a new car in San Antonio. This is after of course waiting to get a spare tire put on and taking it to a maintenance shop so they can patch the tire. Get to San Antonio and they wouldn't take the vehicle. Stating I took it to an unauthorized dealer and they have no record of me getting a new car. Had to spend a bunch of time on the phone with customer service then the airport location finally got everything they needed and apologized and said I o longer owed all the additions they were previously going to charge me. New car was great (so I thought) it was at least clean on the inside and out however the next day again a flat tire. Because it was drivable they have me go to another shop. It took forever for maintenance to approve the transaction then the Hertz maintenance worker asked if I had time to get a complete inspection, oil change and a few other things done on the vehicle since I was there. WTF ... I'm like am I on Hertz payroll now? Am I getting paid for this or at least a discount or a free rental since I'm now spending more than half my vacation getting their vehicles fixed... nope nothing. Worst ever. This is now the third time renting with a hertz and each time has been horrible. And each time has resulted in me having to pick up another vehicle out of my way. Third time is NOT a charm. I've rented so many times with enterprise and have never had this experience. Worst part went to drop it off. Was told that they are closed because the person went home early then a random valet dude was like I'll drive it below with the rest of the hertz vehicles... WTF ... no I need to tell them about this experience. Someone ends up coming back after being on the phone forever. He says he's going to give me a discount but didn't. Charged me exactly the same. I will NEVER deal with Hertz again but especially their Katy, San Antonio airport or San Antonio downtown Marriott location. They are all trash. I'm surprised Marriott lets that trash take space in their building. If you want an unsafe vehicle that's dirty and tires that have no air or get flat quick and a place that has poor customer service make sure to hit up those locations - they specialize in it!

We dropped our car off here, and it was the typical hectic mess. The only difference from other…read morecompanies was that the guy who checked us in did not give us a receipt, did not ask me or tell me that it would be emailed, and just sort of disappeared, like he was too busy for that last detail. I ended up getting a receipt off the Budget website, which was handy, but it was a bit annoying that the process was so rushed. We did not rent from this location, so I cannot comment on the check out process.

My experience with Budget Brakes was extremely frustrating and unprofessional from start to finish…read more I went to pick up my car at 2:20 in the morning as planned, only to be told by the technician that they would not release my vehicle and I would have to wait until the shop opened again at 7 AM. When I returned later that morning, I was then informed that the car still wasn't ready. Because of this, my wife and I wasted an entire day of leave -- and anyone in the military knows how valuable that time is and how unacceptable it is to have it wasted due to poor communication and lack of preparation. To make matters worse, I was told I would be receiving a credit to make up for the inconvenience, but that never happened either. This experience showed a complete lack of professionalism, respect for customers' time, and follow-through on their own promises. I will not be returning, and I would strongly caution others against using this shop.

UPSELL. UPSELL. UPSELL…read more My husband was on a work trip in San Antonio and rented a car from Hertz through Priceline. He paid in advance. Upon arriving at the desk, there were only a couple people in front of him and multiple clerks working the desk so waiting was not a problem like many reviewers said. Phew. Unfortunately, he felt beaten down by the upselling. Remember, he paid already... asking about an upgrade. No. Asking about additional insurance (even more than he paid for through Priceline). No. Etc. He said they asked him for multiple things and wouldn't take no for an answer and had to say no at least 3x for each thing they suggested. He understands they want to make money but he paid for what he wanted and just wanted to get the car he picked online. Period. He used words as "obnoxious" and "annoying" when describing the scenario. Needless to say, he was happy with the price from Priceline but wishes to avoid the upselling in the future. Unfortunately, 2-stars due to the hassle from the clerk.

I made a reservation through the Hertz app. I was contacted by text and email in the days prior to my arrival (mostly to upsell me ) but also had some important information. One important piece of information was that I could skip the lines and head directly to the car lot. There, I would find a list of names and you find your name and they tell you where your car is. I had "presidential circle" by my name which I never heard of before, but it allowed me to choose any car I wanted from two rows. We deliberated and checked out different models before finding one we wanted. It had 5 miles on it. No worries about brake and tire wear! And then we left. So easy. They scan the car and your drivers license at the exit gate. Could not have been smoother.

All other rental car companies kept their employees at the airport to assist in getting their cars. a large group of people that rented from the Sixt could not get their cars. We had no choice but to spend hundreds of dollars on an uber to get to our destination. On top of that The Sixt charged the card for the rental and has yet to credit back for the car we could not pick up or the Uber charges incurred. Do not rent from this company as they are impossible to reach by phone and have show no regard for their customers. Now we will attempt to reverse the charge with our credit card company. There is no good reason they ignore all call and emails??

Unfortunately they out of any car with that class. So I have to ask for another class. They don't have any car until three car class up. It is ridiculous for airport location do not have car.

I had left my phone, unbeknownst to me, at the welcome booth and was looking all over for it while we were waiting to exit and another team member(sry didn't catch his name) ran it over to us and did so with a smile. Really felt like it was above and beyond as they were busy with other customers. Upon returning the car, Jasmine, Jeff, Tyler and another man that I didn't catch the name of, were courteous, helpful and again going above and beyond, helped me with the second leg of my journey. For a work portion I had rented a different level car (cheaper for my company). I asked how much it would be to keep the car I currently had. I was told that they would allow me to use the current car at the price I had agreed to for the lower model. It's probably not a big deal to them, but not having to move all of our stuff and keeping the car that we were enjoying made a huge impact on us. Thanks SAT team. You did a phenomenal job.

I had a free rental day from points, leaving me a balance of $10 & some change. On check-in, (which I couldn't do online this time for some reason), the friendly agent confirmed the free day, amount in taxes, rental times, car type & insurance info. Driver's license & credit card on file, no additional deposit charged. I booked directly with enterprise online. We headed to the lot & were directed to our car with the keys inside, proceeded to the gate where the id was checked and we were on our way - total 10min. The car was as expected... actually, scratch that. We weren't expecting heated seats & were greeted with a toasty surprise when we hopped in on this uncharacteristically chilly day in TX. Return signage was clear & it was easy to navigate. It was the first time we've had the car inspected with reflective disks on return to check for hidden hood dings.. They must take damages seriously. We were clear though, so, all good in my book. Email rcpt was in my box by the time we hit the gate. Well worth $10 for a 24hr visit to my hometown!
