    I've rented from this location (or dropped off a rental I picked up from LAX) several times over…read morethe last few years. The staff here is unfailingly helpful and pleasant to interact with. I've found this to be true whether they are backed up with customers at the end of the week, or the lot is full of cars on a Monday or Tuesday. I greatly appreciate their service.

    Worst godawful rental location I have ever been to in my life. There is no customer service…read morewhatsoever, that's nonexistent. This location is both Avis & Budget by the way. The guy there was absolutely awful, so old and rude to everyone, and wore a backwards LA cap.Tried marking up their online quote by $50.00 so I just booked online. He demanded I give him my insurance policy number when I declined his insurance, which no rental agency ever does. Then, continues to try and push selling his crap car rental insurance, despite his horrendous attitude and angry miserable face. Then, doesn't list all the scratches, dents, damages I see on the vehicle. He said just if it's major. I told him I'm going to take a video and pictures of this vehicle so you don't charge me for this. He said yea that's fine. Car smelled like smoke when I got in, and it was filthy inside and out. I don't think it was cleaned after the last person rented it. I only went here because enterprise was out of cars, and I couldn't make it to the airport car rentals which are always a better experience. I will exclusively go to airport rentals from now on.

    I recently returned a rental from HERZT and feel compelled to share this warning…read more I rented an EV and used Tesla Superchargers during the rental. Every single charging session was clearly documented with time, location, cost, and a photo as proof. Most of the time, I charged the vehicle at home. The total charging cost was about $151, but HERZT charged me more than double that amount without any explanation. Their bill did not match my records at all. I called their customer service several times to dispute the charges, but no solution was offered. The attitude I received was essentially: "If you want to rent from us, you have to accept our terms." No explanation, no itemized breakdown, no accountability. I ended up returning the car today. Seven years ago, I had already noticed that HERZT tends to overcharge and sneak in fees. I gave them another chance, and unfortunately, nothing has changed. This time, I made sure to clean the vehicle carefully and took photo evidence before returning it. At this point, I would not be surprised if they still try to add a cleaning fee out of nowhere. My advice is simple. Go to Enterprise instead. I have rented from Enterprise for over 15 years and never had a single unpleasant experience. Their pricing is transparent, and their service is reliable. I underestimated just how unreliable HERZT still is. I will never rent from them again. If Enterprise is not available, I would rather ride a bicycle than deal with HERZT again. Seriously.

    Nick is smart and quick to resolve any issue. I reserved through Thrifty, but was not in the…read moresystem. He searched the system as much as possible, only to find no reservation. So, he manually input my same price and the same car within minutes. A very professional and very smart man. I will reserve my rentals here. Thanks Nick, Great work.

    I don't know why there aren't better reviews for this place. We always have such good service. We…read morerent cars multiple times a year for trips. The SUVs are clean and new. Even one time when we were running a day late they assured us it was no problem. Stephen (sorry if I spelled it wrong) was so professional and kind. Upgraded us at no extra charge because I'm guessing they didn't have the car we requested. Really nice guy and went over the vehicle with us before we left. We will keep coming back.

    Rented a car from GimmeCar a few weeks ago and the entire rental process went smoothly. They were…read morevery friendly on the phone and picking up the car took about 10 minutes. Quick and easy. The car was a Toyota Corolla and was clean. There was a slight odor of marijuana in the car during pickup but I just fixed that with some air freshener. I got a great deal on the car so I was not going to complain. The reason for the 2 stars- upon returning the car I received my deposit a few days later. No problem. However I noticed that I had an additional charge on my account for $47. When I called I was told this charge was made by mistake and I have followed up week after week and it still has not been refunded to me. I'm not sure how you can even make a mistake and charge a random amount to a customer after our business with them was completed. But it seems shady. All my calls to them have been brushed off and there is no sense of urgency to have this mistake corrected. Good prices, friendly people at first but because of this I will not be going back.

    was recently in an accident that totaled my car, and I needed to quickly arrange a rental. I went…read moreto the local Enterprise Rent-A-Car here in Riverside, and I couldn't be more impressed with the service I received. I was first greeted by Sam, the driver who picked me up. At 80 years old, Sam is as incredible as you can imagine--kind, energetic, and an absolute joy to meet. When I arrived at the branch, I met Destiny at the front desk. Despite being busy with four customers ahead of me, she greeted everyone with a big smile and a warm, pleasant attitude that instantly put me at ease. Andrea then helped me finalize my rental. She was an angel--equally professional, patient, and friendly throughout the process. Every person I interacted with at this location was both professional and genuinely welcoming. I highly recommend this Enterprise branch in Riverside. They turned what could have been a stressful afternoon into a much smoother, more pleasant experience. Rick T. Riverside resident
