Pick-up was slow. Only two people were at the counter. It seemed like they re-entered everything each person had already provided online. The waiting line was long. The car was fine and the turn-in at the Atlanta airport was fast, well-organized and easy.

I would like to request my money if possible I am going to call the credit card company to dispute it. I have reserved a Sedan but when I went to pick up the car they did not have a sedan for me. they gave me a dirty Jeep Wrangler, on top of that They charge me extra on that car. I had to spend over 200 dollars for the gas on that car in 2 days.

Pros:

Friendly staff with a quick & easy rental and drop off. The pick up truck was immaculate.

Cons:

There is no exterior signage for this rental location, which is inside a hotel. I had to call ahead to confirm that your rental center was there.

Hard to say -- arrived at scheduled pick up time, and they were closed with nobody answering phones until two days later.

Cons:

arrived at scheduled pick up time, and they were closed with nobody answering phones until two days later. What would be better is to not have pick up scheduled when they're closed!
