Affordable price, great service, free upgrade to Jeep after booking a mid-sized car

Alamo and other rental companies are located at the Las Vegas airport car rental building, about a 10-minute ride on a free shuttle bus. The office is large, and since we arrived close to midnight, there was no queue. Two counters were open, and we quickly completed the rental process. With the rental confirmation slip, you can take the escalator to the parking lot. There was only one car left in the booked category, and the staff let us choose any car from the higher category, but we didn't need a larger vehicle, so we took the only one available, which was very new with only 8000 miles on it. Returning the car was super quick, taking less than a minute, just a check to see if the tank was full. The rental building is only a 2-minute drive from South Las Vegas Outlets and a gas station, very convenient!

Economy car booked at LAX. On arrival counter clerk tried to get me to up-grade to a Compact car, saying it would be roomier and more comfortable over long distances at an additional cost of only so many more dollars per day, which I declined and said I would stay with the Economy car booked, asked about cruise-control and was told that only Full-size cars had cruise and would do well to upgrade to one [ at extra cost of course. ] I again declined and was then given a Compact car, at no extra cost. Why ? Because they did not have any Economy cars, having previously tried to get me to pay for an up-grade which they were bound to give me gratis anyway ! Nice try Alamo. On checking 5 different makes of Economy cars, I found that they ALL had cruise control, making the counter-hand, at best, woefully ignorant of the features of the vehicles Alamo rent out, or a deliberate liar at worst. Commission-hungry rental agents who are prepared to tell customers anything to boost their income do little to maintain the reputation and integrity of Alamo. I have taken the matter up with Alamo and am waiting for their response, but thought I should advise you of the dubious methods being practiced there.

Like: Booking the vehicle was super easy! Because we got such an amazing deal on it I was a bit skeptical when it was time to pick it up but it was just what I had reserved! I will use this again for sure!
