No one manning the counter when the first plane of the day arrived from Denver. How do you miss this? A tiny airport with 2 flights in daily. Hertz was there and very professional.

Someone actually manning the counter.

I had my car scheduled with a noon pick up. I payed for collusion with you guys for 18 dollars. at 10:30am I get a call telling me they have no cars, they won't have by noon, they think they might have one by the end of the day. After making other arrangements and spending some of the company was going to lock on my card, they called me, it was 12:30 and I was leaving for my sons graduation. They tell me a car is there if I want it. Needless to say I did NOT pick up the car I went with plan b.

Upon arrival, found out my request for car pick up at the airport had been changed to another location. Hertz staff was completely unhelpful. Told me to call the other store. Coming internationally, didn’t have a phone that could call locally. Found a cab on my own to head to another location. $35 and an hour and a half later, finally arrived to the other Hertz location. (Remember I just got off a very long flight from overseas!) although the staff was very helpful, I had to pay extra to be able to drop the car at the airport upon drop off. I was offered a, “Im so sorry, when the airport is out of cars, they do this!” Very disappointing and made my trip exhausting. But most of all disappointed in the attitude and unwillingness to offer any help from the airport Hertz staff.

Renting a car away from the airport was more affordable. After returning the rental car, they were helpful in finding me a taxi to get to the airport.

Pros:

Horrible customer service. Nothing to like.

Cons:

Reserved and received a confirmation number. Paid an uber to get us to the pickup location only to have a very rude young lady say they dont honor reservations made in the last 24 hours. Completely bad attitude, unapologetic for our wasted time and money and no real explanation given for any of it.
