Do not rent. Hertz has perfected the art of wasting your time. My "reserved" pickup time was…read moreapparently just a loose suggestion, as I stood waiting an hour while staff moved with no urgency. The employees treat inconvenienced customers like an interruption to their day. Dropoff is its own special chaos: strict hours, and an entrance off a public road that seems deliberately designed to punish you for returning the car. Hertz charges premium prices to deliver a DMV experience. Avoid.

The staff was great! I reserve economy car for memorial day weekend. It was for a 9am pickup. I…read moreshow up at 9am and I was told the cars haven't been returned. I was offered a mini van. I did not take that because of parking and too big for my needs. I was told to come back so I went to have a quick breakfast. Long story short the car never came back and the staff worked hard to get me a vehicle. After a great deal of calling to customers with cars and other Enterprises one was found. They ordered a car service to the other location and I was on my way. ***To corporate allowing customers to extend there rental with other renters behind that reservation is irresponsible? If your staff was unable to get me a car what would have been the recourse? Maybe each location needs other stand by cars other then a large out of date mini van. Also the car I got at the other location was dirty on the inside like it hadn't been clean thoroughly. The staff at the Emprie blvd location is the only reason I am giving a 4star for the staff!

Reserved a vehicle which of course was not available in person. Alright, expected. So I was offered something else which turned out better.

Then I was told the debit card thing was BS and the credit card thing gotta have a onetime transaction. Waste of time and energy. Nothing like that was discussed. Definitely should add these things to the fine print. Anybody know a good car rental place for the future ?

Johnny the branch manager is amazing - he was friendly, thorough, knowledgeable, and quick. He answered all of my questions and made some recommendations about the return of the car that saved me tons of time (not arriving at a certain time when the courthouse next door is having rush hour). He helped me with car selection, got me a great vehicle, and set my mind at ease regarding the insurance coverage which I had questions about. Return was also a breeze, thanks to Johnny's advice about timing and the prompt and professional attention from the lovely Z. Z was friendly and the return process was simple - she met me at the car, worked quickly and calmly, and I didn't even have to step into the office. National has a great team at this location and I plan to always use this location going forward.

My family and I landed at FLL and worked with Latisha and another gentleman who were also great with our change to our initial reservation. I made a mistake in not reading all of the fine print (they did it all right - I did not see something - it was my error) and upon returning the car both Paul and Rico resolved and handled it with such kindness, understanding and total professionalism. They didn't just fix my issue when I was in a panic - they made me feel valued at National car rental throughout the entire return process. It's rare to find customer service this good, and it made a huge difference in my travel day. Because of Paul and Rico, I'll always choose National when I rent a car. SO easy & highly recommend this location!!!!!

I had an extremely disappointing and uncomfortable experience at this Enterprise location that…read moreultimately caused me to cancel my reservation. I booked a rental online a week in advance with a 6:00 PM pickup time. On February 4 at 10:07 AM, I received a call from the location confirming my pickup. No additional requirements or concerns were mentioned. On the day of pickup, Ben called me at 5:35 PM and told me I needed to arrive earlier because the location closes at 6:00 PM, despite the system allowing customers to book 6:00 PM pickups. I explained that I was in class until 5:50 PM and that the location is a short walk away. I arrived on time and was then told by Ben that I needed two utility bills (cable, internet, or utilities) showing my address. This requirement was never mentioned during booking or during the confirmation call. We were standing in a parking garage, and I was expected to immediately produce documents I had never been told to bring. While I attempted to access my account online, Ben repeatedly rushed me and asked whether I would have it "in the next five minutes." When I pointed out that no one had informed me of this requirement earlier, Ben stated--in a dismissive and mocking tone--that they had called and left a voicemail. This was inaccurate. I answered the call and spoke with someone directly. There was no voicemail. There were two other employees present during this interaction who remained silent while this took place. While I was there, I overheard them joking that they were only cleaning and vacuuming because "Michael" was coming the next day, which they discussed openly. That comment did not inspire confidence in how the location is normally run. Ben then told me they were closing and that I would need to return in the morning. I explained that I needed to be in Long Island by 10:00 AM. He said the location opens at 8:30 AM and that he would schedule me for then. After leaving, I received a confirmation for 7:30 AM, which directly contradicted what I had just been told. An employee referenced Michael in a way that indicated he is in charge. I would genuinely appreciate a call from him, as this experience reflects serious breakdowns in communication, customer service, and overall operations that should be addressed with real customer feedback. At that point, I no longer felt comfortable proceeding and cancelled the reservation entirely. I will be taking my business to AVIS down the block next time. As long as Ben is working at this location, I would not recommend renting here unless you are comfortable being spoken to dismissively and dealing with last-minute, undisclosed requirements.

I'm "Avis loyal", for the most part, but that has started to wither a bit over the last few years…read more I've been to this location several times, but only 2 times since their office moved to "State street". I must agree with the other reviews that they seem inefficient at getting people checked in and out the door quickly. Also, the cars are located in the 4 level dungeon that is dark and hard to perform my "walk around" of the vehicle, before I sign my life away that there are no dings or dents. Returning is a bummer for the same reason, and one time the staff was friend but 3 out of the 4 transactions I didn't get a warm and fuzzy feeling or even a receipt. It's just not what I'm used to. Maybe I need to go with the app, because I did receive some texts regarding my return, so that was good. Also, the cars I get, are usually, giant 4 door big-un's. I don't mind a smaller car, that's easier to park and handle and better on gas. In general some improvement could be made.

I successfully entered my driver's license and payment details through the online pre-check in order to save time but still had to visit the counter. I waited 45 minutes to see a staff member. There were three counters but only one staff member. She was doing her best but there were 11 people in line. 2. The Jeep I drove got me where I needed to go but the interior was not well cleaned, the gas tank was only half full, and the cruise control didn't work. 3. The drop-off was jaw-droppingly awful. When I pulled up an Avis staff member said I couldn't return my car because they had no place to put it in the garage! He advised me to take it to LaGuardia airport or bring it back the next day (without an additional charge). I found a spot on the street to park and went into the office to ask to speak to a manager. He said there was no manager on site. I said I was willing to bring the car back the next day but I wanted a written statement that the cost of a garage spot would be refunded. This produced an impasse. The staff member finally texted and spoke with a manager, who said I should drop it off there anyway, which I finally did. This process took well over an hour. The staff members I dealt with were not unpleasant and tried, but never in my long life have I had such a terrible experience renting a car.

No self-service either. Just a long line of people with reservations, forced to wait to check in (again) at the counter. It took me over 45 minutes just to check in, despite having reserved a car weeks in advance. Moreover, their hours on the window don't match the hours listed in the app, which means that booking online is unnecessarily restrictive (and apparently useless, since this location doesn't honor online reservations). Hertz, if you can't hold partner locations to some sort of standard, at least let us know ahead of time, so that folks know where to give their business. Definitely do not rent from this location!

We wait in line while one person slowly checks everyone in (not his fault; should be staffed better). At 11:30 AM, we're finally next in line and he announces they're out of all cars except EVs. The next gas car was set to arrive in "maybe an hour, maybe more." We had already wasted so much time that we took the EV and subsequently spent so much time and money taking cabs everywhere while the car charged. Such a waste. And every person at Hertz says "there's nothing they can do" because "we signed for the car." No mention of the fact that we had PAID EXTRA to RESERVE a GAS CAR at 10:00 AM. I truly hope all upper management for Hertz has an awful, terrible life due to the mistakes of others while everyone sweetly apologies and says "there's nothing we can do." I have never felt such hatred for a brand before and can't wait to shout from the rooftops at everyone I know to avoid Hertz like the plague. Doesn't care about their employees or their customers. Doesn't deserve to be in business. I hope the company suffers a swift & painful downfall.
