Pretty good! The staff were very friendly.

No need to say more! Excellent!

Picking up and returning the car at Melbourne airport was very smooth. The staff at the pick-up were very friendly and provided detailed and professional explanations of various scenarios. Their service was attentive, thoughtful, and very considerate.

The service was quite enthusiastic. The entire process took about half an hour, and I waited in line behind three people. When inspecting the car, I found a small dent under the trunk. I informed the Hertz staff, and they indicated that such a small scratch, about the size of a finger, was not an issue. Later, I saw in the rental documentation from Hertz that it specifies the size of damage that requires a claim.

The car we received was different from what we booked. We originally booked an SUV Nissan Qashqai (I even provided them with a copy of the rental agreement), but upon pickup, we were given an SUV Hyundai ix35 with several scratches. When we mentioned this to the Hertz staff, they said it was the same category (SUV) so it's fine. However, there was already an SUV Nissan Qashqai nearby. Since it was late, we didn't want to argue further. We hope Hertz can improve on this.
