DENVER CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Like: Manager upgraded us for no charge - this was great!
Dislike: Lots of questions and prompting to up sell items - some that I knew we didn't need. No super high pressure, but at every stage of the process.

The Large SUV ( GMC Yukon or similar as advertised ) turned up to be a Dodge Durango. When I complained that it's a compleatly different class car I was told that it's a 7 passenger car as well. We were 3 adults, 2 kids, 2 carseats, ski, snowboards bags and luggage bags and simply couldn't fit everything in there as it wasn't big enough of the car. They don't have any bigger SUV's in there. Dodge Durango is a full size SUV and you can rent anywhere at a much better price.

Like: Ease of dropoff
Dislike: the 1.5 hrs it took to stand in line to wait for service.

Vehicle was extremely dirty inside and out. Also, for pre-paid fuel option, would give customer's to refuel in case they did not use as much as gas as they thought they would. Everything else was great, thank you.

Like: I was late getting to the airport and the shuttle driver told me the fastest way to get through security and to my gate.....this was very helpful and I was able to just make my flight.
Dislike: long line to pick up my vehicle

Like: The car we had we perfect the car I reserved would have been terrible so I’m glad she got us a upgrade
Dislike: I don’t have a problem with anything

Returning the car in a different location is really convenient.

Like: Friendly, efficient staff Gave me an upgrade w/o additional cost - appreciated that!
Dislike: Very long wait in line - almost 2hrs

I waited an excessive amount of time to get my car. Over an hour and a half. The staffing was very poor. When lunch time came the counter help went from 8 people to three. They should have had replacementS. The rest of the experience was fine but I will have to really consider whether Irent from Advantage again.

Long line at the pickup counter. Saw a bunch of staff that could have helped but just stood around talking to one another. Everyone in line was commenting on it. Drop-off was fast but when I went inside to catch the shuttle I again saw a long line at the pickup counter with people that looked like they could have helped. The car reeked of dope when we picked it up, but it was the only one left of the size we reserved so we had to take it. As well, your staff dismissed it as a minor issue when I complained about it. We left the car in the garage of the home we rented for three days with the windows open and it still smelled when we returned it. One of the brake lights didn’t work from the moment we picked it up. Imagine what would happen if I got stopped by a cop for a bad brake light with a car smelling of dope? I specifically reserved a ski rack when I reserved the car and my reservation confirmation showed it, but there were none to be had. Caused a headache when we tried to load all of our skis. Actually needed to call a friend to rent another, smaller car to carry the people that were displaced by the skis. Pickup counter staff tried to up sell me on insurance. It is certainly the prerogative of a business to up sell, but they most definitely didn’t have their facts straight regarding the fact that my own insurance policy will cover any rental vehicle I drive, even if it costs more than one of my own vehicles, so they were misleading and I don’t care for that. Leaving aside the door smell and brake light, the car ran smoothly and was actually quite nice. The price for the rental was excellent, but all things considered, it wasn’t good value for my money. I rent at National for business trips and while I would have paid quite a bit more, they would never give a customer a vehicle that smells like that; I rarely wait more than a few minutes in line; their staff are courteous; I’ve always gotten the ski rack when I’ve reserved one.

Did not get the vehicle that I wanted. Took a long time waiting and finishing process at the counter.

Manual negative review

The biggest fail was I booked a large SUV (Suburbain , Yukon,Tahoe LARGE SUV). NOT A DURANGO........ MID SIZE SUV!!!!!!

Dislike: Waiting to pick up the car. There were two to three people working and a line of people out the door waiting. It took us at least 45 minutes to get to an agent.

Europcar were unable to tell us whether we would receive a 4WD/AWD car before picking up. They also don't fit cars with winter tyres (despite us requesting them). Both of these can be made a legal state requirement to drive on Colorado roads during winter storms, as happened numerous times during our trip. It was only through luck that we received a 4WD and so could get by without proper winter tyres. This is a huge safety issue, it's crazy to be sending people out driving on Colorado roads in the middle of winter without winter tyres.

As above

Worst customer service ever Tried to extend twice(the night of being late and the next morning) Dropped of the car and it was an extra $200!!! Tried to use my debit card for the extension and they wouldn’t do it while I was the location in denver like customer serevixe said I could. On top of all that, I picked up the car and drove into bad snow weather and had to purchase windshield fluid and pull over every 5 miles to clear my windows so I could see!

Very convenient. There is a shuttle at the airport. No promotional pitches when picking up the car. Clear signage for returns. The return process was quick and smooth without any issues. Everything was perfect.

Like: I received a upgraded vehicle and was able to fit all my grandkids in it
Dislike: It took over 2 1/2 hours to checkout

First car had very little tread on the tires and nothing like what I expected so I complained. Waited a very long time for a different car.
