Pros:
The location. Seems as if they're accustomed to helping out 1 staffer who's worked for 2 years. He didn't know how to explain or provide a number of services.Cons:
Sales agent should've been knowledgeable about basic tasks. Some had to show him how to look up my account & two other basic functions all after I waited on him to finish eating & clean his teeth. Quite gross & not professional. He was curt.5,2 Fair

Jan 2017
Pros:
Found I had reserved the car at a different location than the airport in Jackson, MS. Clerk could not transfer the reservation to the airport location. I would have had to take a cab to the other rental location. I had to call and cancel the reservation and make a new reservation at the airport. Originally I had booked online through Kayak. When I got to the garage to pick up my car, they were out of economic cars. They upgraded me to a Ford Expedition. It was a tank for one person. The weather was bad so it worked out.2,0 Poor
