Trip to Chicago Midway did didn’t quite go perfectly. Five star status, done correctly did not allow me to go directly to my car Choice. Had to settle for a lesser model. It was clean and nice, but n... See more

Like the ability to easily and quickly pickup the car - dropping off was easy - I didn’t like being charged $17 for 1 gallon of gas that was used to get me to the airport - I paid $54 to fill it up

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The car wasn't clean, everything else with Hertz was fine. However, getting from the rental center to the airport was terrible not nearly enough buses I had to Uber and barely made my flight.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

This seemed like a "Survivor" Episode

Our flight was delayed. We got to terminal after midnight. When we got to the car rental area there was a sign to check in online, but no instructions on where to pick up car. At least 50 people were lined up, so i waited 15 min to talk to the only agent. He rudely pointed to the elevators and asked me why i didn't go downstairs. There were no signs to guide me.
When I got to the downstairs garage, there were only 2 agents and no cars.
There were another 50 or so people milling around wondering what happened. It was starting to feel like a "survivor " episode.
No info, no customer service.
I'm a 70yr old woman, and nearly had to fight a 30 yr old guy off the car when my car finally arrived. (They brought them one at a time.) I was worried about my safety as well as the 3 employees bringing my car. I finally got my car 1:56 a.m. and didn't get to my hotel until almost 3 a.m.
This was unexcusable! I think I should be reimbursed for some of my trouble. And your company owes me an apology for not even having an explanation.

Well deserved flowers

It’s always a pleasure to see Mrs. Kiesha! She’s incredibly helpful, welcoming, and dedicated to serving her guests with genuine love and care. Her kindness and commitment to making others feel valued never go unnoticed!

I love how easy it is to pick up and drop off the car. On this particular one, I had a hard time choosing one of the Presidents selections because the cars where not rinsed off properly and had a pretty heavy white film covering them. The one I wanted was so bad I selected a different one.
