We are 4 adults and 2 kids, and rented a 7-seater SUV on a car rental website. When we arrived at ALAMO in the USA, they told us the trunk space wasn't big enough and asked us to pay $490 to upgrade to a Dodge minivan. When we requested to see the car, they said none were available at the moment. We called the car rental website's customer service to negotiate, but the rental company's attitude was very impatient. Because we were pressed for time, we had to pay the $490. Including the ¥4152 paid on the website, renting the car for 6 days cost over ¥7000. We felt cheated!
The Chinese assistant helped us with the pickup, which was very convenient and fast. We specifically chose a Camry, but when we got to the store, there were not many good options for the same category. We ended up with a basic Jeep. It looked fine from the outside and had a mileage of several thousand, but the acceleration was very slow. On American highways, speeds are generally above 100 km/h, and to keep up, we had to press the gas hard, which was exhausting.
I had already purchased insurance on the rental platform but was still recommended insurance by the staff, which I agreed to in confusion, wasting money. The worst part was that the Chinese navigation device I rented was extremely expensive. I didn’t pay attention at the time, and the communication language barrier made it worse. I will never rent this kind of thing from the store again.
They are irresponsible. I have been paying fines from violations in Europe last year, and they offer no help in handling them! I'm still using your services, and you think this is acceptable?
Picking up and returning the car was very convenient. The rental company has a large selection of cars, so there's plenty to choose from when picking up the car.
The shuttle bus stop is right outside the airport, taking you directly to the company. The shuttle driver was very friendly. The car pickup process was very smooth and the car was in good condition! Returning the car was very quick, taking less than a minute... And the shuttle to the airport is just twenty meters away from the drop-off point, making it extremely convenient! I will definitely rent from them again in the future.
There was a free shuttle from the airport to the car rental company, which was very convenient. The staff on the bus were friendly, but they do expect tips, which is understandable considering their hard work. The staff at the rental company were okay. However, there was one dissatisfaction: on the website, different prices were listed for small, medium, and large SUVs. But when we arrived, we found that as long as you paid for a 5-seat SUV, you could pick any car of the same specification. Had we known this, we would have paid for the cheapest SUV and chosen a bigger car. The parking lot had no management, and the car keys were left inside the cars. You just find your car and drive out to register at the exit.
The service attitude was quite average. During the process, the staff kept talking on their mobile phones and were constantly trying to upsell me to upgrade the car model. Although the rental company claimed to provide a car similar to the Grand Cherokee, that was not possible in the US. Upgrading to a Grand Cherokee required an additional cost, and I ended up with a Hyundai Santa Fe. If I wanted a Grand Cherokee, it would have cost an extra $30/day. A friend of mine, who followed the same route but arrived at a different time, was quoted $50/day for the upgrade. I arrived at the rental location at around noon in Los Angeles, and there were very few car options available. Most of the available cars were small SUVs with over 20,000 miles on them. The Santa Fe could hold four 26-inch suitcases. Overall, the car rental experience was very average and not very satisfactory.
