We had rented a family van and had 3 cars to choose from. We chose one but noticed that tread on one car was a concern so the customer service switched cars at the last minute. The car was great and we drove down to San Diego and back safely with no problems. Returning the car was a breeze. I will recommend this Enterprise to all!

Pros:

Staff was nice and easy to work with.

Cons:

Found trash throughout the car. Not small crumbs, but center counsel was full of junk and found straws between seats. The vehicle was not a full tank, which is annoying when picking up a car.

It's not customer friendly at all. Why do I HAVE TO GO to the same outlet for renewal ? Why can't I use two credit cards to pay? Why don't you accept a debit card, when you have used a credit card in the past? There are too many rules that are not customer friendly and make a renewal difficult and cumbersome. And the representative lady there wasn't helpful either. Throwing rule books at a customers face is not service.
