“Getting "lost" in Hert'z + Auckland's confusing and understaffed airport is not fun”
About Hertz:5.0/10
I arrived in auckland domestic terminal with 4 large luggages and 2 small ones. I went to hertz in domestic terminal. The staff told me, my booking is in the international terminal. I had to brought all the suitcases walking over 15 minutes because I couldn't take the terminal bus.
Once in the international terminal, I went all the way to the car rental pick and found there is nobody in the counter. I asked someone inside the parking lot, apparently I had to go back to inside the international terminal because the counter is in there. (Thanks to the confusing signs I walked back again to the internal terminal counter). There was only 1 staff there and she was nice and polite.
Got my keys and walked back to parking lot. After I drove off, there was no one to verify if there was spots or defects in the car but fine with me.
Few days later, I went back to return the car, again there was no staff in the parking lot. I was confused because I expected I could check out immediately and someone would check if the car is fine and release my deposit. So I just parked the car, brought the key with me. I walked back to the terminal, and found the counter empty.
There was a sign saying "be right back in 15 mins". I waited 15 mins, there was still noone. Luckily there is a key drop. So I dropped my key there.
This is the most surreal car rental experience I've ever had. There is nobody who received the car back, I just dropped the key. I hope nobody is going to do anything weird with the car while I dropped of the car.

I booked the car but was not told that I should go to the international terminal counter instead of the domestic counter. That was slightly confusing because I had to walk pretty far to get there.
I also blamed Auckkland airport for being very confusing and understaffed for my trouble.
Car was in good condition and ran excellently.
Easy to pickup and drop off.
Staff member was friedly. Gave correct instructions to return it after hours.

Car needed by Christch Hertz while it was in Queenstown. It suited us as we were to catch an international flight from Christchurch but were in Queenstown.
So only $2 (NZ) had to pay.
