Vehicle was great. It seems like there is not good communication between the local Hertz office and Kayak when it comes to charges and insurance offerings. I also have an injury and was forced to walk a good distance to pickup the car and drop it off. It seems like with three guys standing around one of them could bring the car up to the temporary parking area or have it ready.

Horrible. I arrived and was told this location does not honor same day reservations. I was left completely stranded. It was extremely unprofessional and created a massive problem for me. I am considering never using budget or Avis for my business travel ever again. Truly terrible.

It was good once we were able to get in co tact with the company to get our car. We called three times and finally had an airport employee call the manager. After that, the rental process was great.
