5.6 Okay18 Oct 2020
Pros: Staff were friendly, efficient, and helpful.Cons: After we got on the road I realized that the tires were extremely worn. We were hydroplaning on the rainy freeway and it was quite scary. The car smelled like cigarettes and there was trash from the previous user in the center console.

8.0 Excellent13 Jul 2020
Pros: The car was sweet.Cons: When I was picking up the car they tried to up sell me 3 times. Then they offered me a soccer mom minivan and wanted to charge me $70 more. I finally just had to say I want to car I had rented to I could get out of there.
6.8 Good12 Jun 2020
Cons: The screens inside the car were smudged and not wiped off well. The person who helped us with our rental tried to pressure us into an upgrade and also into buying the insurance even though we were covered already through our own insurance, and we also already declined it when making the online reservation. He was very pushy.

10.0 Excellent8 Jan 2021
Pros: Super helpful and easy
8.0 Excellent29 Nov 2020
Cons: I needed a pick up on Saturday. There were not enough staff available to accommodate my last-minute request. Perhaps if I had planned ahead this would have been different.
5.2 Okay20 Nov 2020
Pros: When I arrived at the desk I asked the first person I spoke with why I could not drop the car in Oak Harbor. Her response was "I don't know, maybe it's closed." Then when I gave her my debit card she said I couldn't pay with a debit card because I had a one way reservation. I thought she mean't my flight was one way, not the car rental. I was already upset about the answer to my Oak Harbor question and slapped my credit card on the counter. She refused to continue the reservation process with my because of my "attitude" and made me step aside. I was eventually taken care of by another person who honored my request to return the car to Oak Harbor (where I was going) instead of Burlington, 45 minutes away).Cons: I had to travel because my daughter is in the hospital, my son-in-law is being deployed overseas by the Navy, and I am here to take care of my six year old grandson. Service personnel need social emotional training to recognize when customers nerves are frayed and cut them some slack. I had a perfectly legitimate question and the first person treated me rudely, setting up a bad situation.
6.0 Good27 Oct 2020
Pros: The car was pleasantCons: Listening to your customers when they multiple times decline a particular coverage and make you feel uncomfortable by persisting. I understand it’s their job but I declined it 3 times and he kept saying “in case you get into an accident” is that implying something cause I’m female? Don’t understand why I was made to fee pressured. His name is Luke
10.0 Excellent28 Sep 2020
Pros: Very friendly, helpful
3.2 Mediocre23 Sep 2020
Pros: N/ACons: Kayak booked Enterprise to the wrong location, and I had to re-book with Enterprise directly to the correct location at a higher rate.
10.0 Excellent22 Sep 2020
Pros: Super easy drop-off, good car, cheap price.Cons: They really tried to sell me some add-ons, insurance, etc. that being said, the guy was super nice about it.
8.0 Excellent14 Sep 2020
Pros: Staff was friendlyCons: The car was not ready and we had to wait. Tire pressure was low on the third day and we had to take it to tire shop. Tire shop pointed out that three of the four tires was missing a lug nut
2.0 Mediocre8 Sep 2020
Pros: Nothing! I called the downtown Seattle company after realizing that Kayak sent me here when I put in Seattle airport pick up.. I was told the best way to get to them was take the light rail to University district and then uber over to their office. Ok! So I took light rail which took about 50 minutes and then proceeded to get an uber which took another 40 minutes because none were available. When I finally arrived at the Enterprise office it was exactly 3:03. They close at 3:00. The young lady looked out the door at me standing there sobbing dragging a suitcase and turned off the lights and walked out the door. No comment....no concern......Nothing. I then spent another 30 minutes getting another uber and sitting on the curb crying. By the time I got where I needed to go I was over an hour late and missed seeing my son whom I have not seen in 2 years!Cons: Just about everything.

If I go shopping on Kayak and say I want to pick up a car at the Seattle airport PLEASE don't send me shopping at a rental agency that is miles away from the airport without placing that information clearly at the top.
9.2 Excellent7 Sep 2020
Pros: The staff were very friendly and more than happy to work with you. Being from out of state there were some difficulties but they were instrumental in making them easy to deal and smooth.Cons: When I was looking through the car there were fries and pringles under the seat. I do think a little more transparency about fees and processes would have been nice, however, the fault is on both sides as I did not explicitly say I was from out of state when they called to confirm.

2.0 Mediocre29 Dec 2020
Pros: Nothing. Poor customer service, hidden fees, unannounced credit check, wanted kids to wait outside in 20 degree weather.Cons: Up front and honest about fees. Told they weren’t going to honor the kayak price. Wanted to do a credit check so we left. Went to Avis, had a car in less than 10 MINUTES! No credit check, no issues, no reservation and for HALF THE PRICE! GO TO AVIS!

2.0 Mediocre11 Jan 2021
Pros: Staff was apologetic and friendly.Cons: There were zero options for the level of vehicle I had reserved and prepaid for. Because I had prepaid through a third party, the manager was unable to credit me for the difference in cost for the vehicle I ended up having to take.
2.0 Mediocre28 Dec 2020
Pros: We realized there was a crack on the windshield and a couple dents after we drove the car out of the lot. It was a rainy night and we did not want to go through the hassle of driving all the way back and ask for another car. We had hoped that these items were recorded and when we return we would not be dinged for it. Unfortunately The lady who was checking the car back in would not believe us and added the damages as a report on our record.Cons: Empathy and trust are crucial in the competitive service industry. The attitude of the lady who was inspecting our car was unacceptable.
10.0 Excellent22 Dec 2020
Pros: Staff was extremely friendly at pick up and drop off. Super easy.Cons: Wipe down the inside better. Something was on the dash and the passenger seat was really stained.
2.0 Mediocre1 Dec 2020
Pros: Due to Covid Washington state closed. Meaning we couldn't fly in. Sixt wouldn't offer a refund without a $100 penalty on a $270 booking. Awful. Rung them 3 times. Emailed. Still nothing.Cons: A refund or a voucher for another day
6.0 Good28 Nov 2020
Cons: I could’ve been told about the tolls and how much I would be charged for each one.
2.4 Mediocre15 Oct 2020
Cons: They made money off my error. I missed the pickup and drop off location in Seattle on third. And thought it was at SEATAC rental car facility. I immediately tried to call and change it. But I had to pay for 3 days rental. I cannot recommend them or KAYAK.
10.0 Excellent3 Oct 2020
Pros: Pick up and drop off was a breeze!Cons: Car was dirty. Cleaner vehicle?
6.8 Good20 Sep 2020
Pros: Quick and easy pick up / drop off. No hidden fees or surprises.Cons: Our rental had never been clean (ever). For a 2020 model with 15k miles on it, the vehicle's interior wasn't only filthy, it was starting to have significant wear and tear. Being in Covid times, I'd expect a little more attention to cleanliness, if at all. The floors of the vehicle were especially filthy, therefore it's evident this car hasn't been cleaned, ever. Crumbs, used tissue, plastic wrappers. Disgusting. Ironically, we returned the car cleaner than we received it by just wiping down the dash and steering wheel with wipes.
2.0 Mediocre5 Sep 2020
Pros: NothingCons: We showed up having a rental car booked in advance and Sixt told us they had no cars and they were canceling our reservation. Because of this I had to book a different rental and it cost $170 per day for the rental car vs the $50 per day I had booked with sixt. Criminal!!!
4.8 Okay30 Aug 2020
Pros: Van ran well.Cons: Not the car I reserved. Not clean with 3 used water bottles, dirty cup holders and a miscellaneous chalky type ball that was left in the car. There is no one at the entrance to take the return. Upon entering the pick up area to inform them that no one was at the return, they told me to go back to the return where there was someone cooking his drugs on his tin foil and subsequently shooting up in broad daylight at the entrance to the returns.

Pros: It was the most comfortable experience: The staff, a woman, was so mindful that she made my family truly happy. The drop off was also super convenient. I was nervous due to the earlies drop off around 4:00 am. But, your request made me happiest on the first day of 2021. Trust in your customer was the best.Cons: Do the same as you did for me.

4.0 Okay8 Oct 2020
Pros: The car was clean.Cons: The checkin process was not clear and instructions on where the car was located and how to exit was not given clearly. It took almost an hour to complete the process. When returning the car, there was no attendant and I had to walk around the car garage to find someone. Very unsatisfactory experience!
4.0 Okay4 Oct 2020
Pros: Vehicle was in good condition.Cons: I was forced to pay an additional $13 per day because my credit card would not properly swipe. My wife had to rent the vehicle and add me as an additional driver. We were told my credit card number could not be manually entered, so this was quite frustrating and expensive.
9.6 Excellent27 Aug 2020
Pros: The staff was very helpful and friendly.Cons: Thrifty is REALLY hard to find. They need better signs and directions for all the car rental places not on the main floor.
5.6 Okay17 Aug 2020
Pros: Good carCons: No instructions on drop off. Final price was way higher than Kayak said it would be.

Pros: Great staff.Cons: fee transparency
5.6 Okay27 Aug 2020
Cons: Pickup and drop offf experience was terrible. Constant attempts to overcharge for the rental from saying the website didn’t calculate the right taxes to be changed a fueling surcharge at drop off even though I fueled the vehicle before return. Attendant didn’t look at the fuel gauge and questioned me about where I fueled but did refund the surcharge when requested. At pickup the Budget counter wasn’t even open (went through Avis) and the agent had to manually enter rental info because I wouldn’t accept paying $50 dollars more for the rental due to what the agent said was a website miscalculation of taxes. Vehicle was clean, comfortable, and ran trouble free.
7.2 Good27 Aug 2020
Pros: car was fine. drop-off was quick and easyCons: the price we were charged at pickup was different/higher than the amount in our confirmation email from carrentals.com. i have been in contact with them and they've started an "investigation".

9.2 Excellent12 Jul 2020
Pros: The vehicle, a Mazda CW5, was amazing and a great value. The Budget employees were extremely helpful.Cons: I did not receive a confirmation that the vehicle was returned when I brought it back.

5.2 Okay18 Jun 2020
Pros: Drop-off was easy and the car was functional.Cons: Neither the car’s interior or exterior had been cleaned. There was trash in the cup holders and the interior surfaces clearly hadn’t even been wiped down. The exterior hadn’t been washed. The car was missing all four tire nozzle caps.
10.0 Excellent4 Jun 2020
Pros: Staff was friendly. Rental was easy to pick up and drop off. Vehicle was spotless. I appreciated the estimated price was more than my actual amount upon returning the vehicle. I will definitely rent from budget again.

Pros: Staff was nice.Cons: The cars weren’t spotless, but that wasn’t a problem for me. We did get have to exchange cars due to a tire issue. We called ahead and discussed it with E-Z Rent-a-Car. They said they made a note on our profile and there would be no problem coming back and exchanging the car. When we got there, they didn’t seem to know what we were talking about and we spend a little longer than necessary due to some confusion about the exchange. Worked out in the end.
4.0 Okay29 Dec 2019
Pros: Easy drop offCons: Car smelled terribly of smoke, super long wait at pickup while the only staff st the desk was chatting with the only customer in front of me, stating “I’m taking my time to see if a car comes in for you”. I had already reserved and paid online, to “save time” the website said.
6.8 Good28 Dec 2019
Cons: Vehicle had been smoked in, did not realize until I turned on the air after departing the rental facility.
5.2 Okay26 Sep 2019
Cons: They did not have my car available for me when I arrived to pick it up. That is the first time that has ever happened to me in 30 plus years of renting cars. They clearly did not want to upgrade me to a larger vehicle. Eventually my car became available.
10.0 Excellent18 Sep 2019
Pros: Drop off quick and easy.Cons: Staff both at check in and return were not rude but not friendly. Acted like overworked or not enjoying their job. I can deal with that but nicer if more conversion.

Cons: Check in agent was extremely rude
10.0 Excellent18 Aug 2019
It was great experiencePros: The car was nice, clean, and nothing wrong with it. The pick up and drop off processes were very quick.Cons: Nothing
4.8 Okay15 Aug 2019
Pros: Nothing after getting the wrong carCons: I chose EZ particularly because they showed and offered a Toyota RAV4 which is the car i use at home and it accommodates my injured hip and knee. Instead, i was given a Subaru something which is a brand well suited to littler people but which will not let get the seat back far enough to drive safely
2.0 Mediocre9 Aug 2019
Pros: Staff was nice enough, he didn't have any cars to rent people...Cons: Two hours after my reservation they still didn't have a car for me. Isn't the point of a reservation to hold the car? I had to Uber and pay twice as much as i wanted to spend on travel. I was hesitant about renting from a name like EZ car and I should've trusted my gut
10.0 Excellent8 Aug 2019
Pros: Fast check-in, check-out and the car was great. The experience met my expectations of a reliable rental car company.

2.0 Mediocre22 Dec 2020
Pros: Not a thing.Cons: A rental car location at an international airport that is only open between 10am and 6pm... Just let that sink in and then extrapolate to all of the other areas this company could fail, because they do indeed fail in all of the other areas. It is actually impossible to reach anyone at the counter of this location, even if you do call during their limited business hours. Try calling that location and entering the option for lost and found and you'll be taken to some scam line while entering other valid options will actually hang up on you. The list goes on and on. I won't ever be renting from this company again.
4.4 Okay8 Sep 2020
Cons: If YOUR website or their website had warned me that the pick up time is now extremely important due to COVId I’d have been more accurate. As it was no one was there for 35 minutes upon arrival.

6.8 Good2 Feb 2020

2.8 Mediocre7 Oct 2019
Pros: The person behind the desk who helped me was friendly and helpful. The person behind the desk next to him was playing trap music on their phone with no headphones and it was hard to hear bc the music was so loud. Totally unprofessional.Cons: I reserved a compact car. All they had available were minivans and trucks, so I got stuck driving a truck which was awful. They return process was inefficient. I had to stand in line at a booth to return my keys which is worse than other car rental companies that have someone there to check you in as soon as you drive up.

Pros: Although the office was busy, the two staff members were friendly and helpful. Drop off was incredibly simple.Cons: All good.
4.0 Okay1 Dec 2020
Pros: The staff at Hertz was actually very helpful and courteous. The problem is booking through Kayak.Cons: The problem I have is with Kayak. They allowed me to make a booking for pickup on Thanksgiving day, but they made the booking at the wrong Hertz location. I then had to Uber to the other location, but when I got there, they were closed because of the holiday. So I Ubered to my hotel, then back again the next morning to pick up my car. Because of the miscommunication, they didn't have the car I originally booked available and so I had to pay an extra $10 per day. They also weren't able to refund me for the day missed because of the holiday mixup. All in all, it was a disaster right up until we actually got the car. The car was nice and dropping it off was so easy. But it ended up being a lot more expensive thanks to Kayak's screw up.
6.0 Good27 Nov 2020
Pros: Counter staff was excellent however 1st car stank of pot/ marijuana. 2nd car was good, mileage was recordered incorrectly in system (off 300 miles) however agent at exit was great and updated it.Cons: Drop off does not provide a receipt at time of drop off unlike others like Enterprise.
4.0 Okay9 Nov 2020
Cons: It was difficult to collect the vehicle - getting out of the garage downtown was very challenging, we waited a long time. The first car had a quarter of the fuel missing and shook when driven over 50mph. I took it to another location en-route to swap it out (SEA Airport) and they asked me why I did not go back to the downtown location, I told them I did not feel safe driving a car shaking violently. The replacement car had coffee stains on the dashboard despite Hertz' "Enhanced Cleaning" sticker on the side. Very poor experience.
10.0 Excellent3 Nov 2020
Pros: Friendly staffCons: None
4.4 Okay26 Oct 2020
Pros: Car was cleanCons: We were not informed that we’d have to pick up the car at a remote site 10 miles from the airport, which meant we had to Uber. That site was closed on our return day (also never disclosed to us!), so we had to return the car to a different location and incurred an additional $40 charge. With the Uber and return fee, we could have rented a much nicer vehicle from a different provider. Shame on Hertz and Kayak.
8.4 Excellent29 Sep 2020
Pros: I believe the gentlemen who helped me was Scott and he was very friendly and efficient with check in and check out. This was probably as seamless as I've ever rented a car in the past which I really appreciate.Cons: I wish Kayak would have made it more apparent that this location was not accessible by airport shuttle. Instead it required 3rd party transportation which added an unexpected cost and inconvenience. Otherwise the experience with Hertz was great.
9.6 Excellent23 Sep 2020
Pros: The staff was FANTASTIC. I’ve been swindled by tricky word smiths before, so I was very appreciative that my agent was no nonsense, and forthright with me.Cons: I found used kombucha bottles under our seats and the windshield fluid was empty
2.0 Mediocre22 Sep 2020
Cons: I waited 45 minutes before I event spoke to someone. I had rented a truck which, was not available, and there weren't any available in the Seattle are and then cargo van they were able to give me was not clean, inside or out. They said they "wiped it down" but there were stains all over the place. I was then charged 3 different times the day I returned the vehicle but received no confirmation or receipt for why I was charged additionally. When I called Hertz, I waited on hold for 45 minutes before I was able to speak to anyone to dispute the charges.
6.0 Good21 Sep 2020
Pros: Boeing Pick-up/ drop off very nice. SeaTac exchange easy.Cons: Could have changed my flat or brought replacement. Also unacceptable to not receive money back returning car 3 days early.

Pros: The staff in the garage was very excellent. The car was clean.Cons: The front desk woman was very shady. She kept adding on tons of extra fees that weren't in my initial order.

4.0 Okay1 Jan 2021
Pros: Drop off was the best. Staff was helpful and efficientCons: Pick up was the worse. No personality, total sales pitch for extra charges.

Took a while for the car to heat up, made me wonder if it was working at all.
8.0 Excellent31 Dec 2020
Pros: Parking attendants were super friendly and helpful. Billing was super helpful!Cons: I was told in person I would be charged a certain amount for gas and told that it was relatively cheap due to fuel prices, but the final bill charged me for the full tank- which I was not made aware. I called billing and they were able to sort it out because I barely drove far, but it would have been nice to know up front. Also Jeep Wranglers- soft top, are hard to see from the back with the plastic and interior was super dark. Felt too unsafe to drive in dark/ heavy rain.

Top tips for renting a car in Seattle
- Ready to rent a car on your trip to Seattle? Save time and avoid public transport by renting a car that will give you the complete freedom to explore this exciting West Coast city. As it’s flanked by water and is home to mountains, the Cascade and Olympic, as well as lush forests and parkland, Seattle’s unique location and great roads offer its visitors outstanding scenic views as soon as you jump in your car.
- A good place to pick up your hire car is at the Seattle–Tacoma International Airport. If you’re flying into Seattle, the city center is only a 13-mile drive away. Once you land, finding the car hire office is a breeze. You can use the 24-hour shuttle buses or head to the passenger pick-up areas in the main terminal located outside baggage claim at the north or south ends.
- As a new driver in the city, you need to be aware of Seattle’s often busy and one-way streets. If you’re driving on residential streets, keep your eyes on the road as they often two lanes often merge into one. It’s also good to keep in mind that pedestrians will expect you to stop for them at crosswalks.
