They have to be professionals and responsible. I reserved a big car for 7 passengers. I called them up before I go to pick it up, they offered me a small car because they didn’t have any big vehicles. Could you imagine my frustration? They never fixed my problem. I had to call immediately to AVIS and they really worked out with me professionally fixing my problem.

Pros:

Nothing. They wouldn't rent to me and I still had to pay for the insurance.

Cons:

You could have not charged me for insurance on a car I didn't drive.

The Hertz kiosk was the only car rental facility closed. We could not pick up our vehicle upon arrival. We had to book another car rental and pay more. Horrible experience!

Everything from pick up to the cleanliness of the car to drop off was great.

Picking up was very unpleasant. I had to wait at the front desk and listed to the agent complain on the phone for over 5 minutes about the prior customer before helping me. Then he was super argumentative, saying I was at the wrong location, but because he was nice he’d help me out - completely unprofessional. The vehicle was not something I’d ever buy, it would have been nice to see an American made option… it was like a cheap plastic toy that was seriously lacking power and comfort.

I booked the car 2 weeks ago and when it got to the day of pick up, I got to the location and that Hertz wasn’t opened. I immediately call the closest Hertz and they also didn’t have cars available, and was saying just because they DO NOT have enough staff so that location wasn’t opened. I needed the car ASAP so I had to call every rental car company to find a car but it was such a hurry and no cars were available. I paid $1200 for concert tickets and couldn’t make it JUST BECAUSE HERTZ DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH STAFFING, AND EVEN WORSE WITHOUT NOTIFYING ME, and KAYAK also have the availability opened online even Hertz does not. I was so angry and disappointed because I just threw $1200 tickets like trash because I couldn’t make it to New Jersey on time without the car. I will never come back to Kayak or Hertz and I will certainly spread out this incident and message to as many people as possible in State College so that they will not experience the same thing as me.

I completed the reservation, and the rental place called a couple days later to tell me there won’t be a car available for me. All the other rental agencies in town were booked, so I had to upend my wife’s schedule so I could borrow her car.

Pros:

Even though Hertz could not fulfill my reservation, they did not erroneously charge me for it.

Cons:

I was able to make a reservation to pick up a car at the State College Hertz, but when I showed up, the place was closed and I was instructed to pick up my car at the airport. I called the airport Hertz to confirm this, but no one answered the phone. When I arrived at the Hertz at the airport, there were no cars available, despite being able to reserve one.

Customer service was awesome especially at pick up in state college. I’ve only ever rented from enterprise before this and the customer service and the way they made it so easy makes me only want to use Avis in the future.

The vehicle was not in road-ready condition as I had to fill up the tires with air twice and had to have the oil checked as a warning light was on from the start.
