Aug 2020
Pros:
The car itself.Cons:
The fees and taxes portion of the original contract I paid for when I picked up the vehicle. Upon return of the vehicle I had to pay the same fees and taxes again. Also, how dare that you charge 15.00 for each toll on top of the state toll charges and the 15. each toll was alot more than each toll. I will never use thrifty again and will post negative reviews each and every place i can on a daily basis.6,8 Okay

Jul 2017
Pros:
The guy that helped me set up my rental was extremely nice. I was trying to get a car closer to the airport and I felt he went above and beyond to try and help me. In the end, I wound up going to the same place I was supposed to go to and he was helpful. He had called me when to check in on if I got the rental moved. Friendly and awesome service. Pick up and drop off were quick and easy.Cons:
Nothing. Everything was great.7,2 Good

Pros:
Car was greatCons:
There was no way to get employees attention inside the building. I had no way of knowing if they saw me and someone was coming to help or not.2,4 Poor
Jan 2020
Pros:
Staff friendly, but incompetent. Lots of opportunity for training here.Cons:
1) Have the vehicle ready for pickup at the appropriate time. Ours was dirty, and had less than 1/4 tank of gas. 2) Improve team communication. We reserved an SUV because we were 5 traveling together, and I communicated this to the Enterprise staff twice. They still got it wrong. I told them early on the morning of our rental when I called (per their request) to confirm the rental. I told them again when we called for pickup at 3:45 pm. They showed up in a sedan that held 4 (including their driver), so half of our party had to wait at the train station for another pickup. 3) VERY long delay at pickup due to issues #1 and #2. They offered to put gas in the car, and we agreed, thinking that the amount of gas in the car at that time wouldn't even get us out of town. But their gas run took 40+ minutes. Did they go all the way to the airport for it? As a result, instead of slipping out of town before rush hour, we had to drive into the heart of it. They should have warned us of the distance they had to travel for the gas, and the amount of time it would take. 4) No ice scraper in a vehicle, in the winter, in New England. Had to ask for that too.2,0 Poor
Aug 2018
Pros:
NothingCons:
We ordered online. Got the confirmation and then once we were in the Uber on the way to the pick up, Enterprise called to tell us they had no cars available. No care and out $25 for the Uber ride. I’ll never rent from Enterprise.5,2 Fair

Jul 2018
Cons:
Booked a res at store near me agent said it was for another location, but was 2nd time that week it happened. Short on time we tried a different location, after confirming this other location had cars avail she transferred my res and I drove 30 mins out of my way. Sat in traffic got to other location only to find they had NO rentals avail. I booked this res a week prior. Store mgr said he'd find me a car, offered an upgrade (reserved full size). I was given a compact sport suv. This was, after sitting in their store for another 30 mins. Then after returning the car I was charged $44.00 more for returning 2 hours late due to traffic (I called ahead).10,0 Wonderful
