pick up staff was quick. not necessarily friendly, but quick.Cons:
the car was disgusting inside. it was clearly not cleaned (but the "this car has been cleaned" paper was placed inside) and it smelled. It still had someone's dirty mask in the backseat, dust/soot everywhere and dried snot on the dash/door.9.2 Wonderful

Staff were extremely helpful and kind. Car was VERY clean, which is so necessary during the COVID pandemic.Cons:
It feels unbelievably expensive. I understand it's a one-way trip, but the fees are outrageous. I'm glad upgrading in person was cheaper than online.Hertz
