KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Gahanna
- Car rentals in Gahanna have a number of advantages over public buses, which are quite popular due to their affordability. A rental car enhances your flexibility when connecting to various parts of the city, since you can choose your own convenient routes and departure times. This is not possible with public buses, because they follow fixed routes and departure schedules. Gahanna Lincoln Stadium is one of the places you may consider visiting with your rental car to enjoy different games. If you want to visit as many attraction sites as possible, using Gahanna car rentals are cheaper than getting taxis every time.
- Port Columbus International Airport (CMH) is the main gateway to Gahanna for international travelers. It also doubles up as the best pick up location for car rentals in Gahanna. Upon landing and collecting your baggage, proceed to the Rental Car Shuttle following the Purple Rental Car Shuttle Signs on the Arrivals Level. The Rental Car Shuttle is located between the purple columns at the arrivals. This shuttle takes about 5 minutes to arrive at the car rental facility, which houses, among other agencies, National, Avis, Enterprise, and Alamo.
- When driving in downtown Gahanna, you should remember that most of the roads have a high number of pedestrians and cyclists, especially in the morning and evening, who tend to jump into roads without checking oncoming vehicles. Apart from this, a number of drivers in Gahanna, particularly those with large trucks, disregard the right of way and enter junctions at any slightest opportunity without caring if they are obstructing other motorists. However, Gahanna roads are generally in good condition and have appropriate roads signs, which makes driving in the city less hectic.

Pros:
The counter staff was extremely courteous and helpful. We were able to pick up a car well-suited to the purpose we had in renting (transporting an elderly person with limited mobility) that was very clean and had huge trunk space. This is the first time I've rented from this non-airport location, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.10,0 Wonderful

Pros:
Everything was on point--seeing as it was a relatively new car.Cons:
The ONLY thing that I didn't like, was the fact that it didn't appear to have a GPS in the vehicle. (This was by no means a deal breaker!)4,0 Mediocre
Aug 2016
Cons:
Somehow, you had me picking up the car from a remote location rather than the airport (which I had stipulated). This resulted in a much higher cost because of last-minute availability at the airport site. l will not use the site again.3,6 Poor
Jul 2016
Pros:
The staff was friendly.Cons:
The location was tough to get in and out of, the car was dinged and dented and had nearly 40k miles on it. The price charged for my vehicle was much higher than it should have been for an older and extremely basic model. The drivers seat was impossible to adjust to be comfortable for my 6ft tall frame. Old and basic. Not what I ordered. I had resereved a start of the damage wasn't noted, but since I bought insurance from another provider so I didn't worry too much. When I returned the dings and dents that they weren't concerned about before we're suddenly a problem. They requested that I sign a damage report so they could charge the insurance for the damage. Not exactly the most ethical behavior. I will not be renting from Budget again .10,0 Wonderful

Pros:
People were nice, even if not Covid-19 safe.Cons:
Had to check at three different rental car checkpoints before finding someone with the Enterprise group that could give us our rental car. Person who got our car wasn’t wearing a Covid-19 mask over her nose, and I had to touch the computer to finish. Lastly, the Ford we rented had a terrible navigation and audio interface, both of which were dangerous to use.10,0 Wonderful

Pros:

Communications between dollar rental and carrentals.com, through who I made my reservation. More punctual and professional help both at the counter in person as well as online is needed.2,0 Poor

Mar 2021
Cons:
We made a “reservation” for a Suburban. When we got there all they had left was a little 4 door car. We have 7 people in our family so that wouldn’t work. The man working was nice enough, but he told us when you reserve with a lower cost rental company it’s hit or miss. Sometimes you get what you want, and sometimes you don’t. He showed us a long list of people he had to call to tell them they didn’t have any cars available. I would not recommend renting from Dollar because there NO GUARANTEE that you’ll get what you reserve, or any car for that matter!2,0 Poor
Mar 2021
Cons:
They should have notified us that they close at 2pm and that, they would not be able to rent us a car. Their sign says go upstairs to the 2nd floor and someone will help you. Then upstairs it says we close at 2pm. So we had to pay double what our original reservation was and book with Hertz there on the spot.2,0 Poor

It was extremely difficult to find the Payless pick up counter. There was no signage for Payless indicating where I should go. I had to ask a family member to do some research while I wandered around. She discovered that Avis bought Budget and Payless so I went to the Avis/Budget counter. There was a small Payless sign behind the Budget counter. Definitely frustrating.National
