1. The pickup location had no air conditioning, it was very hot! 2. The staff tried to sell insurance to me four times, constantly mentioning US laws. 3. They tried to sell me prepaid fuel. 4. The reserved car was unavailable, and they gave me an older model Toyota Camry with over 75,000 miles and visible damage. I had to take photos to avoid potential disputes later. If I didn't take that car, I would have to wait, but they didn't say how long.
The staff had a bad attitude. When I pointed out that the car given to me was different from the one I reserved and requested the reserved car, the staff kept pushing me to pay for an upgrade. When I refused, their attitude became even worse. I contacted the rental company's customer service on-site, asking them to communicate with the staff over the phone, but the staff's attitude deteriorated further. The whole negotiation took about 90 minutes, and in the end, I only got the Hyundai given to me initially, not the reserved Ford or any of the other models listed as possible alternatives. I have booked directly through AVIS's website before and experienced similar issues, but they were resolved satisfactorily after negotiations. This was the worst rental experience out of my six times renting a car in the U.S.
