Good value not great experience.

Loved the people at Advantage! They were kind enough to offer me a discount! It was my first time ever renting a car and knew how expensive it was going to be for me considering I am under 25 years of age. Thank you everyone at Advantage for really helping me out. You made the experience worthwhile!

Very easy to book. The only thing was I was just confused about the final price. It showed $161 total for the 4 days I rented; and I knew there was going to be a fee of at least $25/day for being under 25 years of age. When Advantage showed me the final bill it came to $579. Maybe just relaying about the price to the guests a little more clearer before you decide to book would be great.

Long line at the pickup counter. Saw a bunch of staff that could have helped but just stood around talking to one another. Everyone in line was commenting on it. Drop-off was fast but when I went inside to catch the shuttle I again saw a long line at the pickup counter with people that looked like they could have helped. The car reeked of dope when we picked it up, but it was the only one left of the size we reserved so we had to take it. As well, your staff dismissed it as a minor issue when I complained about it. We left the car in the garage of the home we rented for three days with the windows open and it still smelled when we returned it. One of the brake lights didn’t work from the moment we picked it up. Imagine what would happen if I got stopped by a cop for a bad brake light with a car smelling of dope? I specifically reserved a ski rack when I reserved the car and my reservation confirmation showed it, but there were none to be had. Caused a headache when we tried to load all of our skis. Actually needed to call a friend to rent another, smaller car to carry the people that were displaced by the skis. Pickup counter staff tried to up sell me on insurance. It is certainly the prerogative of a business to up sell, but they most definitely didn’t have their facts straight regarding the fact that my own insurance policy will cover any rental vehicle I drive, even if it costs more than one of my own vehicles, so they were misleading and I don’t care for that. Leaving aside the door smell and brake light, the car ran smoothly and was actually quite nice. The price for the rental was excellent, but all things considered, it wasn’t good value for my money. I rent at National for business trips and while I would have paid quite a bit more, they would never give a customer a vehicle that smells like that; I rarely wait more than a few minutes in line; their staff are courteous; I’ve always gotten the ski rack when I’ve reserved one.

Like: I was late getting to the airport and the shuttle driver told me the fastest way to get through security and to my gate.....this was very helpful and I was able to just make my flight.
Dislike: long line to pick up my vehicle

Like: We reserve a small car. They gave a suburban truck which is so huge. Eats up a lot of gas but on the second thought, we liked it because we ended up taking cadets with us in Colorado springs. We also like the shuttle bus driver which is a lady who took us where we suppose to have our reservations.
Dislike: We had a hard time finding where is easy rent a car place. We went first to enterprise. They told us our reservations is not there. I have to search my email and went thru websites, gladly find that are reservations are into advantage..

Like: Price!
Dislike: Waiting on line for rental at 2am
