I rented a car here and will never do it again for the following reasons:…read more 1) Terrible customer service. The site manager, Brianna Jimenez, will not respond to emails or in writing. I visited this branch no less than four times in an effort to get rent a car in my neighborhood and support my local business. Because Ms. Jimenez was tied up initially, she handed me her business card and asked me to call or email to follow up. She never once responded to email or called me back before I returned the rental car. 2) Fraudulent practices. Because they did not have the SUV that I rented, Ethan Glober verbally offered me a minivan at the same rate. I made my initial reservation at the weekly rate because it looked to be the same as the what five days would have cost. Mr. Glober scrolled to the signature block on his iPad to get me on my way at the end of the day, as this Enterprise closes in the early evening. It was my mistake not to have reviewed the contract, which he said would be emailed to me. 3) Major issues with contract. I told both Brianna and Ethan that I intended to drive the car cross country and drop it off on the East Coast. I made 3 online reservations with the drop off in Delaware (prior to Ethan writing up a the new contract that I failed to review). Ethan wrote up the contract 1) for drop off in SF, 2) for the daily instead of the weekly rate, and 3) for a higher rate for the minivan (instead of at the SUV rate that he verbally promised me, because they did not have an SUV on site). I honestly thought he had been sloppy and emailed the site manager immediately regarding the error. She did not respond. I genuinely want to support local businesses, and it makes me sad to leave a negative review. It sucks that these guys don't have the integrity to honor their word.

-3 Stars for super duper delayed pick up for a rental car we had scheduled to be ready after we…read morereturned to SF from a trip. My husband had to wait over 2 hours, and the processing of those who had pick ups earlier than us was molasses / snail slow (insert any given adjectives) so that was quite frustrating. When it finally got to our turn, we got a different level vehicle than we had booked so that the SUV given to us was a major gas guzzler which we obviously did not appreciate. Thankfully, we knew we won't have to fill up till we got back to our hometown where gas prices are more reasonable than SF proper. +1 Star for the staff in charge giving customers who have waited so long (pretty much everyone that morning) a waiver from having to fill up on gas for the rental car return, that was a nice gesture and we appreciated it as we would definitely pick a gas saver vehicle vs the major gas guzzle (it was a. American car, sadly) which consumed 1/2 a tank of gas just going from SF back to Sac. This can be compared to the Korean branded SUV (smaller yes, but not by much and plenty big enough for our needs for this trip) that we rented from another rental company which had SO many choices for us that we had a hard time picking one, which used barely 1/4 tank for us to drive from Sac to SF. It turns out that this Avis location did not have cars on their lot ready for their customers and had to send a bunch of their staff in 1 van to pick up all the vehicles they needed from their SFO location to this one near the embarcadero so that was why it took so long. Each vehicle had to be cleaned on the inside and go through the car wash. Perhaps they needed to pick up cars from SFO earlier before their customers' scheduled pick up time and maybe even late in the night the day before. In short, it was a disappointing experience, and thank God we were not in a hurry to get somewhere like many of the other customers were, who has to catch a flight or get somewhere on time. Otherwise, we'd been extra stressed, so we waited over 2 hours, from our pick up time, but at least we did get gas comped and the vehicle was relatively new although quite gas consuming and not the smoothest drive, according to my husband. Hopefully Avis would be better next time.

TLDR: 2 stars for delayed pick up (cars not on the lot and not ready even after they arrived), but…read more1 star added for gas comped. Long Story for those who enjoy a long walk in the park: we rented a car to drive home from SF after a trip. 2 stars: The car was not ready and I had to wait over an hour beyond my scheduled time to receive the car. Many others who booked for pick-up times 1-2 hours before my pick-up time had to wait over 2 hours to get their cars as the cars were still being transported from SFO to Beach Street office that morning instead of earlier and they were not yet washed or detailed, so everyone had to wait and there was a huge line. 1 star: It was appreciated that the staff compensated by waiving the gas so that we did not have to refill the gas, but we also got a gas-guzzler we would not been happy with, so it was fair for the time we had to wait and the lack of choice of cars (we would've picked a better gas-mileage, more fuel efficient standard car which was the category we had booked), that we were comped the gas. We do appreciate this convenient location to the SF Fisherman's Wharf, but there should be better coordination between this office and the SFO one to ensure there's enough cars for the rental appointments pending at this Beach St. office. Total = 3 stars: Thankfully, I was not in a hurry to catch a flight or go somewhere other than home after a trip, but others in the line ahead of me were in danger of missing their flights, etc. and in fact one person had to abandon their rental car reservation and had to opt for an Uber in order to get to their flight on time and not miss their flight.

It's kind of tricky to find the location. The staffs were very friendly and fast service.read more

My life was seriously at risk on Feb. 2 because of negligence from this company, and the employees…read moreat this location lacked compassion. I had the absolute worst experience from Hertz this week. And before I get to that, I want to highlight something horrible that set off the rental. The internet was down so even though I pre-checked in on the app, I was delayed. Then he decided to do it with paper form, but he took a photo of my driver's license and credit card. WHY THE HELL did he do that? He claimed he didn't want it on the form. So instead, was it okay to have it on the phone? I was NOT happy with that and asked that it be deleted, and he said he would when the internet was back up. I am still worried about potential fraud or theft. And it gets worse.  On my way to my destination, I blew a tire on the very busy six-lane Hwy. 101. I called 911, and the dispatcher alerted a tow truck driver for roadside clearance. She also said, because I was alone, to keep my seatbelt on and lock my doors. How very reassuring.  An officer arrived and offered to change the tire for me while we waited for the tow. He popped the trunk: NO SPARE TIRE. He said he had never seen that before. There was a jack and a spot for it. But the tire was removed.  Because Hertz removed a basic simple safety tool, I had to be towed from the highway and dropped underneath an overpass. (The company's role is only to remove vehicles, not to help beyond that.) There was trash and debris everywhere, broken down cars, and apartments that were junky. I WAS SCARED.  I called Hertz and the bot that answered kept telling me my reservation was cancelled, which it was not because I obviously had my car. It was very stressful. I finally talked to a real person who contacted a AAA towing company. I picked up a new vehicle at the airport Hertz - the rep there was very nice. But by then it was almost 5 hours after I picked up my car and I was only driving what should have taken 30 minutes. I missed lunch, a business meeting and other work time.  I was charged $120 for the tow - WHEN I WAS PUT INTO A SITUATION BY HERTZ in San Fran. NOT the end of the story. When I returned the new vehicle on Feb. 4 at Fisherman's Wharf site, the rep shrugged and said not all vehicles have spares. I said it has a jack and a spot for the tire - the tire was missing. Then he backpedaled and said it depends on the state where the vehicle came. THAT IS AWFUL.  It should not matter if I rent a car from California or Arkansas or Illinois or Texas. SOMEONE at Hertz put me at risk, and there was no remorse, concern or attempt to fix.  This is a massive safety concern.

A real greeting instead of the usual "wait over there and hope" routine most rental counters lean on. Nial at the front desk set the tone right away. He walked us through every coverage, upgrade, and option with total clarity, and the way he explained things actually made the process easier instead of overwhelming. No confusion. No rushed vibe. Just someone who knows the system and communicates it well. Jessica who walked us to the Ford Escape kept the same energy. Friendly, patient, and focused on making sure everything was squared away before we pulled out of the lot. You can tell the team here takes pride in doing things correctly. Pickup and return were both smooth. No weird surprises. They even gave us a moment to gather our things at drop off, which matters when you are juggling luggage and wedding clothes. Getting here note for travelers: The address is 1600 Mission, which is not located at the Sixteenth and Mission BART station. If you are coming from SFO, you will need the train, then the bus. If you skip the bus and try to walk from the station, it becomes a solid stretch. Entirely doable, just something to plan for. Overall, this spot is dialed in. Clear process, sharp staff, and no nonsense. I will keep coming back whenever I need a car in San Francisco.

Sixt Rent a Car gets 1 star from me for a completely unfair and stressful experience. After our…read morerental, we returned the car and did a full walk-around inspection with a Sixt employee, who carefully checked the entire vehicle inside and out. He then signed the return document and wrote "No new damages were detected." To protect ourselves, we also took a detailed, time-stamped video of the whole car (interior and exterior, with close-ups) at drop-off, clearly showing there was no damage. Despite all of that, we later received a letter from Sixt claiming we had damaged the car and trying to hold us financially responsible. It feels like they're ignoring their own employee's signed report and our clear video evidence. This has turned what should have been a simple rental into a frustrating dispute. Based on this experience, I do not trust Sixt's post-rental damage process and would strongly caution others to be extremely careful--or consider renting elsewhere.

Avoid this place at all costs. We had a reservation for 8am. There was no one there and the…read morebuilding didn't even open until after 9am. They tried several cars but the computer kept giving them error messages. They eventually said I had to take an electric vehicle. I had never driven one and didn't know how to recharge it. The manager said it would come full and they would waive any usage fees. Well it came at 76% and after returning it I still got charged the fee for returning the car with a low battery percentage. Complete disaster.
