I would still recommend renting, but the toll pass is a bit of a scam. However, it's a company policy, so just deal with it. The staff in San Francisco were very nice, but the African American employee at Ontario Airport in Los Angeles was not friendly. I personally felt that White or Hispanic staff were very friendly, while Asian and African American staff were not friendly to us.

Many staff at the counter, very efficient and fast!

The service was really good, and returning the car in a different location was very convenient. The staff was very nice.

We rented a 5-seater SUV in San Francisco. They asked if we wanted a 7-seater since there were only two of us, but we declined. However, the staff still gave us a 7-seater (probably because there were no 5-seaters left). I asked if there was any extra charge, and they said no. When we returned the car at LA Airport five days later, I found an extra charge of $59.75 on my receipt for the upgrade. They told me to contact San Francisco for any disputes. I called San Francisco and explained the situation; they promised a refund. I haven't received it yet, but I will continue to follow up.

When we picked up the car in San Francisco, we waited in line for half an hour, and there was no self-service option, which is not as good as Alamo. The receptionist, who seemed to be Chinese, spoke English the entire time and was very polite with a constant smile, but we felt he was a bit deceitful. Despite having already purchased full coverage insurance from the rental website, he forced us to buy an additional $50 insurance without explaining it properly. He simply mentioned that if anything happens, we could call this number for assistance, and we agreed. He then presented us with a bill that was $52 more than our reservation. We almost fell for it. When I asked for clarification, he finally backed down. We even showed him our reservation which clearly stated in English that we already had all the necessary insurance and didn't need any extra coverage.
