4.35/5
Went with Economy Bookings / Thrifty for a solo trip and had some difficulties with my credit card while picking up my rental car. The agent, Kien, was very helpful, kind, and patient while I sorted out my credit, and then upgraded me to a Ford Mustang, so I cruised LA in style. I really appreciated his service – thank you, Kien!

Great value for the money. But you have to expect that the rental company does not have the car you reserved. It happens more times than not

Peggy was very helpful. I had forgotten to turn in my keys so she called me and I went back and returned to her so she credited the replacement charge back to my credit card.

Great price, clean vehicle, easy drop-off process. Make sure you take photos of the car before getting in, especially if there are scratches or dents. At drop-off, I was asked to see a photo (with the photo| s time-stamp) of some dents that were pre-existing , so fortunately I had these.

They just took a long wait time to get the car but they did a good job of getting the line through.

My experience with this company was great. I read a lot of bad reviews and was nervous about using them, but I had no problems at all. It was the best deal I’ve had on a car rental in a long time. The only issue was the line at SFO Hertz but that’s to be expected at an airport car rental company. Great deal and great car!
