Cheap Car Rentals in Black Pearl, New Orleans

I didn’t like anything. I showed up at 6 am when the internet said they opened. The worker arrived at 8 am. I had reserved a car online, yet was told they weren’t allowing same day, one way rentals, which was not communicated on the website. I neither had a good experience, nor left there with a car that was clearly on the lot. I could accept the non same day rental policy. It’s hard to wait in line for two hours because they didn’t open on time, to only not receive an automobile. I lost $22 to Kayak for the pleasure of having this horrendous experience.

The staff was very nice and professional. Getting to the location was a bit confusing as they were across the street from where all the other airport rentals were. The car was incredibly dirty and had cosmetic damage at pick-up (despite it being only 2 years old). Had issues with tire pressure on the second day of the rental and I had to refill one of the tires. The windshield wipers desperately needed replacing as well. Very good fuel economy though!

You should know this site is not at the rental car site near the airport where the other rental car companies are located. There is a shuttle that picks you up from the airport and takes you to that common rental car area. You then have to take a second (NOLA Rental Car) shuttle to their location. Pick up after that was easy, car was clean. HOWEVER, when it came to drop off (ours was at 4am to catch our 5:30 flight)), there was no shuttle back to the airport shuttle, like they told us. The place was locked up, and we waited in the dark at 4am for someone to show up. Ended up having to take an Uber back to the airport, losing valuable time. Will not rent from them again.
