Car on lifts, a trash - strewn lot, and all surrounded by barbed wire. Lovely.
Eric S.

Putting the 'low-rent' in rental car agencies. How....HOW on earth does this abysmal place have such a high rating?? I've been to a handful of Enterprises with far, far lower average ratings that seem like bliss compared to this freak show. To start with, this business is located in a pretty sketch part of town in a MINUSCULE lot surrounded by barbed wire and a gun turret (okay, so maybe the latter isn't true, but the former certainly was). There was trash all over the place and the overall look + feel was very dirty and dingy. The lot itself had a handful of potholes and the rental office was little more than a ghetto-ass trailer on risers. Since the entry/exit was a 1-way deal, getting cars in and out was a laborious task. Consider also that due to space constraints, many of their cars were on manual lifts, stacked above other cars. Adding to the interminable wait were a few employees idly standing around with zero sense of urgency. Not like we had anywhere important to be...except that we totally did. Way to take your sweet muthafluffin' time, dudes. The only "standard size" vehicle they had in stock was a beat-up beige Hyundai Accent that was barely road-worthy. We were promised a "full size" and essentially got downgraded to a hopeless turd of a car. Terrific. Besides the (what I assume were) cigarette burns on the upholstery, the floormats were stained with an unknown fluid (???), something odd was poking out of the driver's seat, the rear fender had a noticeable scratch (but because it was less then 6", they "generally ignore it", the salesman said), and to top off the sh*t cake, the goddamn front-right quarter panel was FALLING OFF. Like what in the actual hell? If I was Enterprise, I'd be absolutely embarrassed to loan this vehicle to a customer. I'd also be ashamed that so much litter was just floating around the rental property, like it's no big deal. Also.....I'm not saying that other reviewers aren't super duper trustworthy, but most have 1 review. As in, this place is their sole review, so perhaps their basis for comparison isn't the most robust? Just sayin'. Would I recommend? Slow service, atrocious car conditions, and scary environment all adds to a big fat F*CK NO. BYE FELICIA!

Cars parked all over the sidewalk, making it difficult to walk down the block. These photos are from 9:23am, and 3:35pm.

This place is a nuisance to the neighborhood. Can't walk down the block without weaving through the 6 cars parked on the sidewalk. Not to mention can't find a place to park your own car since they park many of their cars on the street instead of the empty factory they do business out of. Are these practices even legal? UPDATE: 9 months and countless 311 complaints and calls to corporate later - this business is still making it impossible for people who live here to walk down the street AND now add the face that employees drive the cars (the few that are still in there and not taking up space on the sidewalk or parked out in the street or sidewalk) of the factory without any concern for who may be walking past. I can't count the times I've been startled by an Enterprise employee gunning the gas as they emerge from inside the space. I've experienced and witnessed very close encounters of almost getting hit, which could bring about pretty hefty lawsuits. When will something finally be done about this?

EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL! Had a reservation set for 9am and the car wasn't even onsite. I was told the cars were coming from flushing and had left at 8am... FYI it doesn't take an 1 & 1/2 hrs to drive from flushing to astrioia. But, when the cars did arrive I found out why the car took so long. The driver ended up stopping to get breakfast before he brought the car to the location. WTF?? You have a job to do! Eat before you start working! People rent a car a specific time because they obligations. Because of there lack of professionalism I'm going to be extremely late to my meeting. FAIL! My recommendation is just rent at the airport or even better rent with HERTZ and avoid this cluster fuck of a shitty rental location.

They are the best, Justin delivered a phenomenal customer service, quick and efficient

In a world full of fake, incentivized, and bought reviews, here is the genuine one you were looking…read morefor. I can't say enough good things about this Avis location, and especially about Erica. Since moving to New York in February, this location has become my go-to for consistently easy, stress-free rental car pickups. I've rented here about four times already, and today will be my fifth. Even though this location is a little farther out of the way for me, I continue coming back, and Erica is a huge reason why. In a city that can sometimes feel like everything is moving at a constant "go, go, go" pace, Erica has an incredible way of making you feel genuinely welcomed, remembered, and taken care of. She never makes the experience feel rushed or transactional. Every time I come in, she goes above and beyond to make sure everything is handled smoothly and that I leave happy with my rental. The one time I did have an issue with a vehicle, Erica immediately took ownership of the situation and swapped me into another car that better met my needs. No unnecessary back and forth, no added stress. She simply listened, understood what I needed, and took care of it. Car rentals can often be one of the more stressful parts of traveling, and representatives like Erica are exactly what this industry needs. Her professionalism, warmth, attentiveness, and willingness to go the extra mile completely change the experience. Erica is an incredible asset to Avis and to this location specifically. Employees who consistently create this kind of customer experience deserve to be recognized. There are plenty of rental locations I could choose from, including ones that are more convenient for me, but I continue returning here because I know I'll be taken care of. Thank you, Erica, for making every visit such a positive one. You've absolutely earned a loyal customer. If anyone from Avis corporate sees this and has an employee recognition program, internal shout-out, or nomination process, I would genuinely appreciate the opportunity to submit Erica for recognition - please do not hesitate and feel free to contact me. I would be more than happy to provide additional feedback and formally nominate her for the incredible service she consistently provides.

A security guard at the garage facilitated the efficient drop off. Keep in mind if you're driving less that 75 miles, these city Budgets may have an automatic fill up charge if you can't produce a receipt for your own refill like I showed the guard. That charge can be possibly significantly more than you paid to refill the tank to the level you got it in. Definitely, I'd rent from Budget again.

We waited an hour for it just for them to scramble to find a car to give us. When we returned the car, we preliminarily vacuumed and lint rolled the entire car to get rid of any excess dirt and ESA pet hair from a small, shorthaired dog. they ended up charging us $323 ($275 + 21% tax) for a cleaning fee and refused to dispute us or refund us via customer service, who was INCREDIBLY rude, yet still agreed with me that there was NOT excessive pet hair and normal amounts of cleaning. How can they expect a car to be pristine after a week of use, when it was still returned clean to the best of our efforts? This is so distressing considering my medical condition where my ESA is needed with me on long travel days. They are grade A scammers at this business and as a consumer and first time customer who was planning on having this as a reliable rental car place in the neighborhood, I'm so extremely disappointed with the level of service I have with Budget. I highly advise you look elsewhere to rent your car.

Yvonne called me both times the day before to confirm my reservation. When I arrived for pickup, I was in a car within 5 minutes. The whole process was so fast, and I love each car they gave me. When I dropped off, they offered to drive me home. (I didn't need it, but it's awesome that Enterprise always offers.) Time and time again, Enterprise shows they are top notch in car rentals--reliable, organized, and courteous. I'll be back for sure.

After a few good Enterprise experiences while on the road, I figured it was worth giving this location a shot or two. For the most part, the place is solid. Yvonne is literally the person that makes the engine run here. She's professional, amiable, and even funny. She did her best to make sure I was outfitted with the best vehicle they had whenever I was there. Another bonus? Superb phone skills. It is a nightmare calling into some other locations, but she's made it a point to make each person feel welcome. The reason for dinging it a star comes down to a couple of things. The first issue is the inventory and hours. The car selection is limited to say the least; I somehow managed to get a Dodge or a Mitsubishi each time. I was really hoping for a Nissan during my last two rentals, but the lot was almost always empty on a Friday afternoon. Rentals go quick here. That leads my second issue, which is their hours are limited. They're closed after 6pm on weekdays and Saturdays is limited to noon. This means if I shoot for a weekend rental, I'm forced to have the car an extra day. When inquiring about simply keeping it for the weekend on a one day rental rate, I was told that I would get dinged for a late return. That's not terribly convenient, but that's the nature of a smaller facility.
