I will never have them put me in a Kia Soul again. The most uncomfortable seats, not to mention no trunk room. It was an awful experience my back and neck won’t soon forget.One location in Richmond

Nov 2020
Pros:
The staff was terrible. As I was walking up to rent the vehicle they locked the door, looked at me, and left.Cons:
The customer service. I was treated much better at Alamo where I ended up having to rent from because I was not able to get my rental when I needed it from Thrifty.6,8 Okay
Sep 2020
Pros:
Thrifty staff member was very pleasant and helpful. Vehicle was very clean and ready to go.Cons:
If you rental agencies would offer something besides those cheap Chrysler products. I realize they practically give them to you (how else could they get rid of them), but they are very uncomfortable and noisy. Luckily I only need a van once in a great while. And thankfully you have better quality vehicles to rent when I need a sedan or coupe.10,0 Wonderful
