Although I didn't need to rent a car I was looking for some good binoculars for an upcoming family…read moretrip. Tony's name came up as someone knowledgeable on the topic. After getting's Tony honest take on the craft of binoculars I ordered a pair of ScoopX UHD 10x42 binoculars for a huge discount from practically anywhere else. They're great to say the least especially for the price! I can 100% vouch for Tony as a great trustworthy source for binoculars. He'll take care of all your needs. Highly recommended.

This review should've been done back in 2014 when I borrowed the car. Can't say what the set up is…read moretoday. Back then Tony picked us up at the airport, took us to his residence where all of his rentals are mixed amongst other cars used for parts. He gave us an old beat up mini suv. Not the greatest looking car but it did it's job and served it's purpose like a charm! We took it all through Puna and Ka'u. Super light on gas. AC worked in the heat of Ka'u and the heater kicked in during a cold night up Volcano. Got it back to Tony in one piece. Tony took out his completely hand written spot on contract in his spiraled binder, had me sign it, took us back to the airport with more than enough time to leisurely board our plane ride back to Oahu. If you're a creature comforter, Tony not for you. But if just need to get from point A to B, and blend in with the locals, Tony's your man!

Definitely the calmest airport I've ever been to! The staff is really nice, as well. :)read more

Thank you Wesley for the great service picking up my rental car from ITO, Hilo International…read moreAirport. Total interaction was less than five minutes. By the way, a 250.00 hold was put on my card. I got a mid size vehicle with insurance and it was affordable for the day. Opted to put my own gas, which is 5.00 a gallon right now in Hilo. Car was smooth driving, low mileage, and not clean. So I advise to sanitize and inspect before driving off the lot. Drop off was easy. Just park the car, write down your mileage on the provided paper, and drop that plus your keys at the front desk. Had a great experience and for the price ya cant beat it.

I would avoid Budget at Hilo airport unless you have a lot of time and patience. The lines are long…read morewhenever I rent a car there. I travel weekly for work and usually rent from Dollar/Thrifty but rented from Hertz just this one time. I accidentally went to the Budget counter to return my key rather than the Hertz counter (one over). As soon as the female employee realized I had the wrong company her smile disappeared from her face and she said, rudely and loudly in front of other customers, "This is not our key. Move along!" She shooed me by pushing the key back and waving her hand dismissively. Wow. Now I really won't rent from Budget. I was offended as I was kind to her and even apologized. Someone needs customer service training.

When we got there the Enterprise window was closed and so we had to get checked out with Alamo. The…read moreguy at the desk didn't ask to see ID and didn't go out to inspect the car with us. He just gave us papers and said "your car is in stall 5. If there's any damages just take pictures of them." Given, it was near 6:15pm at this point and getting dark. I didn't like that we didn't have someone check out the car with us and agree on any potential existing damage, but I also understand there was ONE guy working two different company's check outs. Drop off (after hours) was easy and we received our check out paperwork and final costs by the end of the same day.

I'm a hertz presidential circle member. I'm used to walking to the lot and just picking out a car…read more They don't do that at the Hilo airport. You have to go to the desk to across from the terminals and they physically hand you your keys. This is fine but it also means you have to wait in line with the tourists. Depending on your luck, it might be awhile. Once I got to the register everything was ready, my reservation was there. I think they verified my id and I was on my way. Returning the car was the same thing, you have to physically wait in line to return the keys. So maybe leave yourself some time but Hilo isn't a super busy airport so you should be ok. Everything else was totally fine.

Our flight arrived a few minutes early, but there was no way we would Beasley to get our car early…read more The spirit of Aloha was not with the folks at Hertz /Hilo airport. Several folks in front of us reported issues with their cars. Not good. Our car had cosmetic issues, but we noted them ahead of time and went on our way. Turn in was ok, they noted that the car was taken with cosmetic issues and they were not our fault. Still not very friendly staff.

Good thing we rushed over there when the flight landed, because there were still ~8-10 groups behind us and they were at closing time. Hope everyone got their cars! Even though pick up was agonizingly slow, the return was quick and easy. Just park in one of the return spaces, note mileage, and return the keys on the opposite side of the counter.

DO NOT USE. Rented for the week without incident. come 2.5…read moremonths later, i got a letter in the mail saying i owe money for damage. they charged my credit card the same day. i knew i caused no damage to this rental car. the letter had no specifics about the damage, just said "vehicle damage." i emailed them demanding for proof that i caused this damage and that i dispute the charges. they replied saying "the charges are valid" and nothing more. again i told them i dispute without proof and that they still can't even tell me the damage that happened. they reply with a number saying all the documents are under this number (that i cannot access) and all further correspondences are a copy and paste of that email. so i called them. the lady on the line said she COULD NOT FIND ANY DOCUMENTATION of any damage under my account. after a long hold, she came back on and said she processed a refund... whether they charged me a low enough amount that they thought i wouldn't look into it, or they have very disorganized internal processing, it both leads to the same outcome: DO NOT RENT WITH THEM!

The return inspector went straight for a dent i didnt notice upon pick up, but because i took a video of the whole car prior to leaving the lot that showed the dent it was dismissed). It was nice getting a support text from customer service after receiving the car that i could reach out to them if i had any questions or concerns. I also loved having the option to modify my rental for an extention because I needed an extra 30 minutes on my original return time. Will definitely use alamo again.
