A
4.0 Mediocre
I was incorrectly charged despite declining collision coverage (which our car insurance already covers) and roadside assistance (which we have through AAA).
A
10.0 Wonderful
Easy rental, nice car and very pleasant staff. Worked great.
S
2.0 Poor
Terrible. Don’t use them. They jacked up the price every way possible. They also wouldn’t honor the price booked online. Then they thought it funny to stick me with a 9 seater van instead of mid size sedan. Then they charged me more again. Also all agents were actively misrepresenting how fuel worked tricking people into paying for a full tank. It is shyster scam level stuff. Do not rent from them.
A
8.0 Very Good
Need more staff, at both pickup and drop off only 1 person was working making the wait time at least an hour for both.
J
8.0 Very Good
Staff was very nice. Car was very new & rode nice & smooth. The only things that were not up to par was that there were no notes in Thrifty’s system about existing dents & scratches so we had to meticulously go over the car for any damage before leaving the lot. And the exterior of the car was not fully cleaned. Bugs on windshield & nose of car. Interior was very clean.
M
10.0 Wonderful
I forgot to mention that we have CAA Membership. I believe that CAA Membership entitles us to have a discount.
W
10.0 Wonderful
The process was seamless and efficient. Sincere thanks to Megan.

10.0 Wonderful
Did not get the car model we reserved
A
2.0 Poor
We queued for 90 mins to get to the front of the queue to customer service and then another 30 mins as no vehicles was available. It was reserved weeks earlier.
