Airport -> Los Angeles Hotel -> San Diego -> Las Vegas -> Los Angeles Hotel

When we arrived, we were not allowed to pick up the Grand Cherokee. We were only given a choice between a lower-class Jeep model or another SUV. Very frustrating. Not sure if it's the fault of the rental company or Alamo. People picking up cars at the same time had the same issue.

Alamo makes car rental very convenient. The self-service pickup is very quick. During the ten-plus days of using the car, I scratched the left bumper and the trunk in two small places. When returning the car, I informed the staff, who told us it was not a big deal. The return process was also very straightforward; they just took a quick look at the car, and we were done.

Easy process

The staff basically had no sense of service and were trying to squeeze more money out of us. I strongly advise everyone not to choose this car rental company. First, the employee at the counter spent half an hour fiddling with the computer, trying to upgrade me to a better car model. He informed me that the car I originally booked was unavailable (the premium version would cost over $500 more), but as soon as he realized I wasn't going to pay extra, we were immediately told to get our car. Speaking of picking up the car, the parking lot actually had plenty of the model I originally booked, despite being told otherwise. Fortunately, I didn't upgrade. The pickup process was entirely self-service with no guidance or assistance. It was dark, and nobody helped with installing the child seat. A group of employees just stood around chatting. When we asked for help with the child seat, we were told, 'I can tell you how to install it, but I can't help you.' I had to give one star because there was no option for zero stars. If negative ratings were possible, I would definitely choose that.

Upgraded the car model with additional cost; there was also some upselling.
