The tire had a leak. They just inflated it and said the problem was solved, refused to change the car. After a day, the tire went flat again, had to go to a repair shop to fix it! Extremely irresponsible!
“WAY off-site rentals, clean cars, some VERY grumpy staff, but good prices”
About Routes:8.7/10
Picking up the car was quick and easy and the staff was polite and helpful. We got upgraded from a Corolla to a Durango, and for the price, it couldn't be beat, even if getting there was a bit of a trek. The car was very clean. Dropping off was a whole other story... There were a lot of people, and everyone had to go inside to turn in keys and sign off on the rental. Everyone (pick-ups and returns and people who had parked their personal car there) was in the same line (which created a very long line) and they seemed understaffed to handle that. It was disorganized and inefficient. One woman was working with a couple and she seemed very angry/annoyed and kept walking away and going to the back without saying anything to them. Most of the staff appeared or acted unhappy to downright rude. That being said, at some point, someone separated all the people picking up personal cards and helped them, then helped all the people returning cars and it went much faster. The shuttle driver was very kind and polite and being taken directly to the airport after the return was helpful.
About QEEQ:10.0/10
Price Drop Protector was great! I already felt I was getting a great price, but it even saved me a few more dollars without me having to do anything!
Routes is rather remote from the airport, apart from the rental center where other vendors are. They are a bare bones operation and the first rental company I've encountered that required my insurance policy number in order to rent the car. Service at the counter was incredibly substandard compared to competitors.
Fortunately, the car was in ok condition and I didn't run into any problems.
“Staff and Car Were Amazing, Policies are Tough to Swallow”
About Routes:8.6/10
Like: Great Jeep for a very reasonable price. Staff was all very nice. Dislike: Make sure to read the terms and conditions of the rental - I have never experienced a company that, no matter if your plane was delayed and you paid in full, would release your reserved vehicle and charge you full price if you were more than 2 hours late. You can avoid this by calling and letting them know but we were stuck on the tarmac with horrible cell phone reception so we couldn't call. Luckily, we made it with 10 minutes to spare but still they said that there is no flexibility with that policy and that seems crazy. I paid beforehand so that vehicle should be waiting for me no matter how late my pick-up is.
Like: Everything from start to finish was very efficient.
