Silver Springs location is remote but the personnel couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. Very pleasant. Of course, they didn’t have the car I wanted or reserved, but were accommodating and we worked out a deal. Enjoyed the car they rented me.

Pros:

Kayak kind of messed me up, by giving me a great deal on a rental car for a location OTHER THAN the airport where I was landing. I would have had to take a taxi into town to get the car. There is no reason for this confusion on the website. Hertz did a good job of getting me into the same car at the airport, only charging me the extra airport taxes. Nice job, Hertz. Kayak can do better.

Cons:

I went to pick up the car and was told that I needed a major credit card. I didn’t have one and they said I would need to leave a deposit (which was fine) and they would run my credit. My credit score wasn’t good enough apparently and that was basically the end of the transaction. Stranded.

Aug 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

The car itself was fine, although the back seat needed cleaning. And it was ready at the arranged time.

Cons:

The agency did not provide any kind of map, and this was the first time I've experienced that in many years with many car rentals from other companies. The local person was not familiar with local roads to help me get started on the trip. He was not as helpful or polite as I'd expect. Another issue is that I was headed to Massachusetts and planned to take the toll road, and the agent in Rhode Island did not know - or at least did not tell me - of the major change in toll collection there. Since it is not possible to pay cash on I 90, I will be receiving a bill for those tolls, plus additions from Avis and possibly fines. When I dropped the car off in Chicago, the office desk had handouts explaining their e-toll fees. But nothing of the sort was offered in RI where it would have actually helped. I will not rent from Avis again, or Budget, which seems to have merged with it.
