Traveled with kids and arrived at 12:30 AM, only rented for one day. I wanted to get the car quickly and rest, but ended up waiting over an hour. Finally got the car past 2 AM. There were only two staff members: one of them started the check-in process but then said they were going to check the car and never came back. Other customers got their cars and left. Then I had to find another staff member to recheck in, who was slightly more reliable, but only a little. Sigh, I’ve rented cars from this company before and had a good experience, so I guess it depends on who you deal with and your luck.

Quite satisfied

Even though they knew we were a group of six, they gave us a seven-seater car without a rear trunk. We had to fold down one seat for luggage, and two suitcases had to be crammed inside the cabin, which was very uncomfortable. When we reached Jackson, we saw larger seven-seaters and wanted to change cars, but the rental company wouldn't let us, insisting we return the car where we picked it up. Therefore, we were very dissatisfied with this rental service.

Because we needed to install three child seats, we initially requested a vehicle with foldable rear seats. Upon picking up the car, we found that the trunk was too small to fit two suitcases. The rental company immediately provided a car with a much larger trunk. Very satisfied.

I arrived in San Francisco already feeling exhausted. When renting the car from Thrifty, the staff told me that I must buy third-party liability insurance as required by California law. I ended up spending half an hour on the phone with the domestic rental car service. Some representatives said it wasn't necessary, while others said to pay it first and discuss later. The inconsistency in information was very poor, wasting much of my time. Ultimately, due to my firm stance, they temporarily did not charge me for the third-party liability insurance.
