Vehicle pick up at YYC is inconvenient - after checking in at the counter, you wait for an Alamo/Enterprise employee to "take" you to your car. We had to wait nearly 1/2 hour. Not helpful in keeping a schedule!Reviewed Sep 21 2022

Safety issues with the vehicle: 1) bad shaking inside the vehicle, can be felt through steering wheel & over back/front wheels when car is going downhill & brakes applied @ >60kph. Doesn’t happen at lower speeds going downhill. 2) steering: very loud humming in front when wheels are turning. Possible power steering pump failureReviewed Sep 14 2022

Except for a long walk from Baggage Claim to all of the rental car agencies (at Calgary Airport), the entire process was easy and fast. My VW Jetta was a workhorse in the Canadian Rockies.Reviewed Aug 1 2022

Asked counter if the rental was right sized for my family. He looked over. Shook his head and got me into an appropriate vehicle without serious uplift in price. Midsized SUV is a broad stroke. Was very happy with the service received.Reviewed Jul 19 2022

Your manager Warren was outstanding to work with and was extremely helpful. We enjoyed meeting him. The brakes on the Grand Caravan were a concern in that apparently previous drivers had overheated the brakes and it appeared that the rotors were warped. We had noticed some vibration in the steering wheel when braking soon after we got the vehicle. Near the end of our trip we experienced increased vibration especially if heavy braking was necessary. We were quite concerned about our safety since we were traveling with several of our grandchildren. I spoke to a mechanic in Jasper in detail about what we were experiencing and he confirmed we would be ok to drive back to Calgary, but the rotors need to be checked. We were able to return to Calgary without incident and I took special care to not follow closely and maintain lower speed with downshifting and using the brakes as sparingly as possible.Reviewed Jul 16 2022

Booked online, got the confirmation and so drove over to pick up the car I was confirmed to be renting. Only to talk to staff and be told, we have no vehicles for you...anywhere. Left me stranded as my regular vehicle was being repaired so I had no way of getting home. Would not recommend.Reviewed Feb 25 2022

Pros:It was easy to get in and out of parking and held our luggage nicelyCons:I would prefer the guy not try to get us to pay for an upgrade . He kept going on and going on about us needing a bigger car .......of course to pay more for . I ordered what o thought we needed and it was fine . No need to waste our time .Reviewed Dec 29 2019

Pros:It was easy to get the car, the car was perfect, I had a great experience with the overall renting. Easy to get there from the airport, & excellent service at the counter.Cons:It was a bit too expensive. I was shocked to learn insurance through Alamo would be $30 / day, when I could have gotten it for $12 / day through Kayak. I realize there are differences, but I don't understand the huge spike in price.Reviewed Nov 18 2019
