Pros:

The New Haven staff member was not helpful. He did not explain to me additional charges that were added to my bill before he charged me and then was not helpful in helping me sort out a better course of action.

Cons:

The company could be more transparent about their fee structures online vs in the store. The company could make their workers feel more valued.

The only difficulty I had was my secretary booked the car under my nickname Jack. My ID says my formal name John. They just didn't know the nickname for John is Jack and even though my photo ID's and passport have my picture and name John, it took them quite some time and I had to find a card that said Jack on it. Fortunately I had a Costco card with that name and my picture, or else I may have been in real trouble and seriously delayed. Lesson? use the name of my ID on all bookings

Avis in New Haven was excellent. We rented two 12 passenger vans and they were very clean and well maintained. The staff at Avis were also very friendly and helpful. I would definitely rent a car from them again!

I went to pick up the rental at Avis and they did not have any cars. They canceled online but I hadn't seen it before I showed up. Very disappointing.

The Hertz rental agent called 2 hours before pick up time notifying me that there is no service out of Hampden where I was scheduled to pick up. I had to find a ride to travel 25 minutes to pick up in New Haven Ct. The Hertz agent tried to sell me another insurance, claiming the insurance from third party (Price line) is not recognized by Hertz. Minimal assistance was offered to drive the vehicle out of the crowded lot. Very poor service experience.

The car was filthy and smelled like cigarette smoke with an air freshner. Engine light was on... Was not expecting to verify insurance. They could have told me when they called me before pick up.
