KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in West New York

  • If you're visiting West New York, West New York, car rentals will provide unparalleled convenience and flexibility, allowing you to explore the city and its surroundings at your own pace. Unlike relying on public transport, a rental car allows you to visit off-the-beaten-path destinations and make impromptu stops. Notable attractions like the stunning Palisades Cliffs and Liberty State Park have become more accessible with Car rentals in West New York. Moreover, venturing beyond the city to places like the charming town of Hoboken or the Meadowlands Sports Complex becomes much more accessible.
  • Obtaining a rental car at West New York's airports like John F. Kennedy Intl (JFK), Newark Airport (EWR), or LaGuardia Airport (LGA), it's essential to be aware that at JFK, rental car counters and courtesy phones are conveniently located on the Arrivals Level close to the baggage carousels. To access the rental cars, use the AirTrain system to reach the Federal Circle Station. For EWR, board the Newark Air Train headed to Station P3, where the car rental center is situated. This can be easily located by following signage and utilizing escalators. Lastly, at LGA, catch a company shuttle from Terminal A's Rental Car Shuttle Transfer Point to the rental center.
  • Driving car rentals in West New York, much like the broader New York City area, can be dynamic and fast-paced. The driving style tends to be assertive, with a mix of both calm and impatient drivers. While most people generally adhere to traffic rules, the sheer volume of vehicles on the road can sometimes lead to aggressive maneuvers. Bicycles are common, particularly in more urban areas, and pedestrians frequently cross streets, so cautious driving is essential. The roads accommodate a variety of vehicles, from compact cars to trucks and SUVs, reflecting the diverse transportation needs of the region.
  • Driving car rentals in West New York can be challenging during rush hours, typically from 7 am to 10 am and 4 pm to 7 pm on weekdays.

I was not told ahead of time they would be running a credit check and I was not allowed to rent a car because I do not have the best credit. This has never happened to me with the many other rental companies I’ve used. I will never use Avis again. I was embarrassed in front of a room full of people, and my trips plans weee ruined. Never ever again.

Pros:

pick up staff was quick. not necessarily friendly, but quick.

Cons:

the car was disgusting inside. it was clearly not cleaned (but the "this car has been cleaned" paper was placed inside) and it smelled. It still had someone's dirty mask in the backseat, dust/soot everywhere and dried snot on the dash/door.

Pros:

Staff were extremely helpful and kind. Car was VERY clean, which is so necessary during the COVID pandemic.

Cons:

It feels unbelievably expensive. I understand it's a one-way trip, but the fees are outrageous. I'm glad upgrading in person was cheaper than online.
