On our return to Omaha, getting from the terminal to the Hertz rental office was very unpleasant and disappointing. Since Hertz, different from all other rental companies, has its office on the first floor of the parking structure, why are we told to go up a set of escalators, pass by all the other rentals, and down another escalator, while carrying all our luggage, to reach the office? Why is there no way to reach Hertz on the ground floor?

We arrrived at the Avis/Payless counter at 6 pm. Only ONE rep for both companies. When we checked our car for scratches, there were several, so we had to flag a Payless rep. She was excellent - immediately went to get another car and made sure we were satisfied. HOWEVER, the car obviously hadn't been washed. We didn't mind, but. . .

This was an old van that had 62k miles on it and was in need of maintenance. It shimmed and was noise. Not the comfort level I expected from a rental. Also, the service staff was good but under manned. Nobody present when I returned my vehicle.

The time it took to get the car was long. The windshield had a chip in it underneath the windshield wiper, of which the guy cleaning the “bugs” off the windshield would have seen and it split and they are trying to charge me for it although I was told I would not be charged and a note would be put on the account.

Budget did an excellent job with my entire rental. They called the day before to confirm pick-up plans and were easily able to move my pick-up location to the airport when I had accidentally booked the wrong location. We had a new vehicle to drive and it was very fuel efficient. They were so friendly and I would definitely rent at this location again.

Car wasn’t safe to drive. Employees resolution was to return it to original rental location (not nearest thrifty location) and pay for a more expensive rental vehicle or to not drive it on a day with wind, but “it’s going to be windy over the next few days”. (Wind was 20 mph on the day car was blowing all over the road)

What could have been better was the fact that I only had a choice between a Jeep or a Chevrolet truck and I'm a short and round person and my husband has bad knees. I chose the Jeep thinking it would be easier to get into, in which it wasn't. I called for 3 days after I got the Jeep hoping I could trade it for something easier to get into, but they didn't have anything available!

Pick up was fine, the late night staff was nice. The car was the right size for our needs.

We reserved a luxury vehicle and got a full size vehicle. The radio mechanics didn’t work, the car was filthy on the outside, there was a star in the windshield and other body damage that was not gone over with us at pick up. Drop off was complicated after hours. I didn’t have the paperwork to fill out with me so had to leave the garage and find my uber who was circling the airport waiting for me and then take it back up. There was no pen provided to fill out this mandatory paperwork so I had to scrounge one up. Just a disappointing experience overall.

When I arrived in Omaha, I had to hunt for the relocated rental car counter. The agent was a very surly 30-something who mumbled directions for finding the car. There was no one at check out from the lot to check for damage, etc. The next morning at the airport hotel, I took pics to document the numerous dings, chips and scratches on the Nissan Rogue. There was either no cruise control or it was not working which was inconvenient since the bulk of my travel was on the mostly lightly travelled interstate. Luckily, my trip was incident free. When I returned, the agent was a very pleasant young woman who assured me that I didn't need to worry about the chips and scratches.
