Los Angeles - Las Vegas - Page - St. George - Los Angeles

Smooth communication, simple procedures, and the service staff had a great attitude.

- Chose the self-service option, but upon arrival, some booking procedures were still required. - They printed our international driving permit only after a reminder. - They provided a guide to U.S. traffic rules, which is very helpful for newcomers to driving in the U.S. - The provided offline GPS wasn't very useful. - We were pleasantly surprised to find a phone holder in the car, which was brand new and very sturdy. - Picked up the car from a store at the international airport, where they provided free self-service hot water, coffee, tea, and restrooms. However, sometimes there was no staff present, and we had to call them out. - On the last day, they drove us to the airport, and although we waited about half an hour, a staff member later apologized and explained that the shuttle had to refuel, which took some time. The shuttle was very comfortable, highly recommended~ - Overall, I would choose yesaway first for my next self-drive trip abroad.

When I arrived at the store for check-in, there was a gentleman ahead of me by two or three steps. Naturally, I lined up behind him to wait for check-in. While waiting, an American arrived, and a slightly chubby female staff member approached and told me that the gentleman behind me had an earlier booking time and should be served first. I disagreed. Everyone should follow the queue to pick up the car; why disrupt the orderly queue? When I didn't agree, the female staff member told me to wait behind the current customer and that a male staff member would assist me afterward. She then called the American customer behind me and offered to help him personally, which made me feel very uncomfortable! My reservation time had already passed, yet I was still waiting patiently. Why should an American customer be allowed to cut the line? Is it because I look Chinese? Isn't this discrimination? The female staff member, who also looked Chinese, was unnecessarily nice to the American while showing a poor attitude toward me, a fellow Chinese. By belittling her compatriot, she was also demeaning herself. Having an American identity doesn't change the fact that her blood and appearance are inherently Chinese. The service was very poor! However, I must commend the male staff member who helped me; he was very friendly. The two stars are for him alone. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't even give one star because of that female staff member.

Good

The overall experience was very positive. The good: Once I got to the rental place, the process for pickup and drop off was very smooth and easy and quick. I did not purchase insurance and the rep was not pushy at all to try to get me to purchase it. They just required me to provide proof of my own insurance. Car was very clean and in good condition and they provided a phone holder for Usong your own phone as a GPS and an umbrella. Could use improvement: Started off a bit frustrating because I didn’t notice the pickup instructions which were fairly low on the confirmation email. When I called in, the phone rep was friendly and helpful, but a bit difficult to understand due to his accent. The shuttle situation was a bit awkward as I had to take an airport shuttle to a train station to get picked up there by the YESAWAY shuttle and there is no specific pickup location at the train station so the driver seemed to have a bit of a hard time finding me.
