Silver Springs location is remote but the personnel couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating. Very pleasant. Of course, they didn’t have the car I wanted or reserved, but were accommodating and we worked out a deal. Enjoyed the car they rented me.

The customer survive was amazing. Very friendly staff with great professional engagement. The only area of improvement was in car presentation. The vehicle was not externally cleaned well. The detail staff left the entice bottom half of the vehicle dirty. You could actually see where they stopped cleaning. Looked very bad.

They did not specify the charges. When I picked up the car, the attendant told me if I prepaid for gas, they would credit back the difference of the gas unused back to my card. When i dropped off the car they said it was a one time price and there was no exchanges. great way to run a little 30 dollar scam.

I booked a “Camry or similar” and they tried to give me a Kia Forte. Not even close. After talking with them about it, they gave me a Kia Sportage. Better, but still not what I paid for. Maybe it won’t be everyone’s experience, but you wanted honest feedback.

I went to pick up the car and was told that I needed a major credit card. I didn’t have one and they said I would need to leave a deposit (which was fine) and they would run my credit. My credit score wasn’t good enough apparently and that was basically the end of the transaction. Stranded.

Staff was slightly apologetic about not having my requested vehicle.

I showed up on the day of pickup, and they didn't have my car?! All they had was mini-vans, when I had reserved a compact/mid-size. I ended up having to get a last minute rental from another company.

I returned the car one full day earlier than expected and I was still charged for the full three days (even though I had only had the car rented for two). I was told I'd get a call about my refund and, to date, haven't heard from Avis -- despite calling them countless times. Never again.

Honored rental price/cost from Kayak.....got me in Auto that was satisfactory.

Reservation was cancelled without my notification......Avis couldn't honor Kayak price for SUV/large rental. I was quite upset!
