With your rental car, you are not limited to specific routes and departure times as is the case with public buses.

Therefore, to avoid hitting any of these individuals, it always good practice to drive your rental car at a lower and manageable speed at any given time.

What type of vehicle is recommended for renting in Cypress?
Since most of the roads in Cypress, except the few major highways, are narrow, a compact car will be an ideal car option for you. This car does not only fit well on narrow streets, but can also be squeezed in small parking spaces. Apart from this, the number of people and/or pieces of luggage you are traveling with will determine the type of car you should rent in Cypress. For instance, if you are traveling alone with just one bag, an Economy car will be a good option.
What’s the speed limit in Cypress?
The speed limit in Cypress varies depending on the road you are driving on or the zone you are in. However, unless otherwise posted, the default speed limit in Cypress is 35 mph. Residential neighborhoods and school zones are some of the areas where you can expect speed limits to go to as low as 20 mph. On the other hand, on major highways such as the Interstate 405, the speed limit gets to as high as 65 mph.
What are the best places to park in Cypress?
The Cypress Park & Ride located along Frontage Road is one of the best places you can reliably park your car. Depending on the duration you want your rental car to stay at Cypress Park & Ride, you can choose to pay for the parking space either per hour or per day. If you want your car to spend less than three hours in the parking lot, the hourly charge of $1 per hour is ideal. However, if your car will be staying at the parking lot for more than 4 hours, a daily charge of $3 per hour will be appropriate.

Sept 2020
Pros:
The didn’t have the car reserved. So instantly go a upgrade, the car was perfect for my drive to San Francisco. And looking back I don’t think I would of nearly enjoyed as much with the original car I picked. While doing the vehicle inspection I did not notice the car had a nail in the front passenger tire luckily it did not pop on my trip I noticed it took it to an enterprise unfortunately they did not have a car nearly as nice as the one I was driving so they preferred that I take it to a qualified tire repair shop and have them bill enterprise. They were very nice and didn’t bill me the entire day. And it took maybe 4 hours I had the car by 4 pm.Cons:
The car had 15% oil life and I noticed it probably halfway through California so completely pointless to stop and get an oil change I just drove it until it hit zero and luckily that was about 20 minutes outside of LA on the way back home. Not a big deal when you deal with as many cars as they do.6.0 Okay

Pros:
I liked the ease of picking up the car closer than where I had originally booked the rental. The Laguna Beach Enterprise agent was able to cancel the original booking and provide a car where I was staying.Cons:
With the booking from Kayak I added insurance and while the original booking was cancelled, the charge for insurance has now showed up on my credit card. I will have to dispute this but just got back today. I hope this process will be easy.Budget

Cons:
I was given wrong information when I called the budget hotline or customer service line. I was told I can use a debit card because I am over 25 and didn't need a credit card. When I got there first of all they had no cars at all... this was before I knew I could not use my debit card. They said they had 2 cars left.... a pathfinder and jeep compass. The people next to me just rented the pathfinder and then was informed the compass was not even on the lot. The lady was super rude!!!!! I rented a small size car and asked her since there are none here can you call another rental place to see if they have any. Was told it is to close to closing time. The overall experience was AWFUL!!!!!!!! the customer service was HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I did not leave with a car. I told the lady I have no problem getting a credit card..... again left without a car!!! It was overall a HORRIBLE experience..... I do not take this out on Budget in general but the place that is renting your cars..... needs to be checked out!!!!!8.0 Very Good

Pros:
The staff were not considerate in our complaint that the van vibrated everytime we slow down and hit the brakes. It was scary and we tried to get a replacement at our destination but there were no available vans.Cons:
A better discount should have been given for the scare and discomfort we experienced during the trips since no vans were available for replacement.2.0 Poor
Dec 2018
Cons:
I reserved a full-size car at a local location. I called the location about an hour later to let them know I would be about and hour later than the reservation time to pick up the car. I was told they didn’t have any full-size cars available, only minivans and I shouldn’t use a third party service to book a car. They said I should always contact the branch first. Then I called the 800 number to help locate a car in the area to fulfill my reservation. The 800 number agent told me that the branch showed availability but she could not confirm that they had a car for me. I did not rent a car from Hertz.7.6 Good
Apr 2018
Pros:
Pick up and drop off was quick and easyCons:
I got a flat tire and there was no spare, so the solution is to have your car towed to the nearest open airport and exchanged for a different car. I missed the concert I'd already bought a ticket for that night. I also couldn't get my rate adjusted for the gas I'd just filled up on the car that got hauled off because I'd gotten the rental through Kayak instead of directly through the rental company. So, I lost about $50 on this and my evening out on my birthday weekend! :(4.0 Mediocre

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) & Theft Protection Waiver
Some Cypress car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the hire price but not all of them. We recommend being aware of your coverage when hiring a car in Cypress.
Deductible
Keep in mind that car hire insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your hire. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a non-deductible option to your Cypress car hire.
