Cons:
Totally disappointed, the car was dirty with scratch marks. Have to drive to a different location to trade cars. Then the 2nd car was dirty too, had to use the wiper to clean off the wind shield before I could drive. It had $$ signs and numbers written on the windows and wind shield, that would not come off. Only had 1/2 of gas and agent didn't even know. Agents were unfriendly at both locations. Bad experience. My daughter rented a car from Advantage for the same period, she got a bigger, nicer, cleaner midsize car with less mileage and was less expensive. Will NOT rent from Hertz again.Car hire locations in or near Allen
