I wish the rental location was open later as I got charged an extra day. I wanted to pick the car up at 7pm and return the next day which would have worked perfectly but the location closed at 6pm. UghEnterprise Rent-A-Car

Pros:
Not a thing.Cons:
We specifically needed a SUV and that is what we reserved. When we went to pick it up, they did not have one. The clerk told us they accept all reservations whether they have the car or not. This is the second time this has happened with Enterprise. It is the last time we will reserve a car with them.4,0 Mediocre
Jul 2020
Pros:
Drop off was easy.Cons:
Pick up was disorderly. Car was not clean inside. I even verified they had time to clean it well because it looked like they had just ran it through the carwash. He said yes. When I got home I spent an hour cleaning it because there was trash and obvious smear marks on the windows and such from the previous user. Given that we are in the middle of a pandemic with COVID-19 this was highly disappointing.10,0 Wonderful
