Maintenance light was on when we picked up the car. Otherwise, car was fine.
10.0 Excellent6 Oct 2021
Everything was amazing. The customer service, the wait times, the friendliness of the gentleman we worked with at the Sky Harbor Airport. We couldn’t remember his name but he was the very friendly (retired age) fellow who told us about an RV resort in Rocky Point. He was so excellent to us!
7.9 Good5 Oct 2021
Allowed us to pick our own car from dozens of available cars once we walked out to the storage area. We ended up upgrading to a nicer car for no additional cost. However, picking up the car was not a very streamlined process. It took some time and there was some confusion by their staff.
3.9 Mediocre1 Oct 2021
Waited over an hour in line to get the rental car which made me late for my meeting. Got in the first car and the maintenance required message popped up, the next car smelled horrible and the car I ended up renting was dirty. Also, don’t be fooled by the “lowest” rate here because you’ll be charged an additional ~$30 per day for coverage. When I made my reservation it was $215 but my final bill was close to $350.
7.9 Good28 Sep 2021
With the rise of prices for vehicle rentals, they were the best price. However, they do charge over $12.00 a day for an extra driver. Even if they are your spouse and on the same insurance plan. They only had 1 vehicle to choose from, and that vehicle had over 50,000 miles. The driver side carpet had worn through from the heel movement. It drove fine and suited my needs

No jeep as booked, upgrade to a 2021 Jeep Wrangler would be an extra $300 or so. Said no. Then offers a discount for the Wrangler. An extra $110. OK. I had to sign about 20 disclaimers. Go down to get the jeep. No one there. Finally someone says I can get in the jeep and go to the exit. Get to the exit and the barcode won’t scan. Now a line of cars behind me. Can I back up? Sure. I finally ask what’s going on. They’ve reserved the jeep for someone else. I don’t have a contract for the jeep. They tell me to wait, but there are no jeeps available. It worked out in the end. Someone else didn't get the jeep. They had kept offering the jeep to people upstairs and signing off after I had rented it. I got the feeling no one had worked there for more than two months. It was a terrible experience. I'll stick with Avis from now on.

The staff was fantastic, wish I could say the same for the car. 90 thousand miles on the car and it rattled and swayedthe whole time. I should have paid the extra few bucks and gotten a name brand .

Everything went smooth on the whole process. It was nice to see the pick-up line was automated (someone was there if you needed help). Many of the other rental car lines were long in Phoenix, but not with Almo.
1.9 Horrible19 Jul 2021
Our negative score has to do with an issue we had with our first vehicle. During the first days of our trip we wound up with a flat tire and had to call Alamo Customer Service for assistance. In fact, we had to call them three separate times to get the issue resolved, because they wanted us to switch our car for a replacement and kept driving us in slow circles all over town on a spare tire trying to find a location that 1) was actually OPEN and 2) actually HAD CARS for us to switch with. Each time the customer service representative told us we'd called the wrong number and gave us a different, also wrong, number. One even hung up on us instead of passing us through to the right person, who we NEVER got the proper number to reach directly. We spent the rest of our long trip terrified of another flat tire. Both cars themselves were fine, with excellent gas mileage and technologically advanced features we don't even have on our own cars at home. If the above incident had been handled even one iota better they probably would be getting an OK or positive score. So, overall, if you have no issues Alamo is probably going to be great for you. But the next time we're planning a road trip of any flavor we're going with someone else.

The reason for the low rating on price was due to rental prices being so high right now, even so this was a good deal, compared to renting from the airport, even with the cost of Uber. Well ran business, this is coming from a retired CEO.

The pickup was not at the airport, which was not clear when making the reservation. This was a small independent running out of a hotel. When I arrived to pickup the rental there were 5 people in front of me. Some had been there for an hour waiting to pickup their rental. The gal running the place was not around and could not be reached by phone. I was there for and hour and a half before I finally got the car. The car was good and the return was easy.

I wanted to get an earlier start so I tried to go in and pick up the car at 8:00 AM even though I had a 9:00 AM appointment. Nobody in the place and was still told to come back at 9:00 as that was when my appointment was. This is not their fault but seemed like they weren't interested in making it happen. While driving, the car steering wheel was 15 degrees to the left while going straight. Car drifted to the right. Suspension made noise at slow speeds on bumps. I did call in the condition right away and they offered to change out the car but I was already running late and wanted to get going so I took the car the way it was.

The car was clean and well maintained.The price ended up being twice what was advertised on Kayak. The agent at the counter charged my card and finished out my ticket before even explaining the charges. When I asked about them, he was unable to satisfactorily explain them. I felt like my questions weren't important and the agent wasn't prepared to answer them.

Turned out okAfter flying across the country (Syracuse to Phoenix) we arrived to pick up our car and was told they didn't have any and that it could take a few hours to get. The first gentleman was very nice and apologized. He even suggested we check with their competitors. We did, with no luck, so went back to Dollar and the second man was rude and showed no interest in helping us. With no other options, we went down to check in and wait. Luckily, it wasn't long before a car became available. My issue was that I made this reservation months in advance. Dollar should be ready to accommodate those reservations even if that means going to another one of their locations and picking cars up.

Everything was as it can be expected. Low mileage car, practically new. Friendly customer service even at the late time of pick-up.No car as pre-ordered was available, rental was then covered by a different but associated rental company, in our case Thrifty. Available car was the bare-bone basic model.

We liked that we were able to pick it up in PHX and leave it at LAS. The car was clean and very efficient on gas.Not just this one but ALL car rental places try to sell extra insurance for when the car would be out of service in case of an accident. Why not just charge more and stop this ridiculous practice? . Most people have insurance or credit cards that cover in case of accident.

huge price increase from quoteThe Nissan car we ended up with was clean, comfortable, and a smooth ride.The quote I received from Kayak was $179 for a 2 week rental. The nominal rate was $29.98 per week. When I checked in, with tax & fees the quote was approximately $250. When I said I wanted my spouse as an extra driver, they added $13.50 per day plus tax & fees. I was expecting to get a rental for $179. It ended up costing me $467. Furthermore, when I arrived I was given 3 cars to choose from. I picked out a Ford Focus. I loaded all my luggage & began to drive toward the exit. The car hesitated & stalled when I accelerated, so I returned & selected a different car. I placed the keys of the Focus on the dashboard, where they were when I found them. I popped the trunk, stepped out of the car, and closed the drivers door. To my dismay, the doors were locked. I had not pushed the door lock button. I returned to the booth & explained the problem & waited a half hour while a staff person finally arrived and extracted the keys so I could get my backpack out of the back seat. Not a pleasant start to my trip.

When I made it through the 45 minute line with 2 suitcases and wearing a back brace and walking shoe I was told my reservations was not completed when I dropped my car off at San Antonio location! I was stuck in airport 5 hours until I could secure ride to sun city, then had to come in next day to get a car! That was a nightmare! The car and staff were great, other than the Phoenix counter staff upon my arrival, all was pleasant and I believe I will be a return customer.

I was unable to rent through budget despite having adequate funds and a reservation. Overall I don't think I will opt to go with them again. When I asked for the reason why they wouldn't rent to me, they gave unclear answers and eventually it was related that their credit check was the cause of being ineligible. I do not agree with this criteria nor it's evaluation after personally calling my credit agencies. I would not recommend this company.
2.0 Mediocre19 Oct 2021
I find it immoral and deceiving when a company quotes you an “estimated” price online when you make reservations but has hidden costs that increases your rental by an additional $300. I waited at least an hour in line (didn’t have a problem with that), only to cancel my reservations because I wasn’t expecting to pay an extra $309 and I’m almost certain the cost would’ve been a lot more when I turned the car back in. The moral thing to do is for Budget to be upfront and transparent with what the customer will be paying when they make their reservations online. I ended up using Turo which saved me $300.

Rep we picked up from at the airport was almost to the point of aggressive as to us buying additional insurance, he has no idea who our carrier is and that we pre called them to verify. My wife had to walk away it was getting so uncomfortable. Also once we picked up the inside had no trash but was disgusting. Thank goodness we had wipes to wipe down and clean, there were sticky spots, cup holders sticky and light stains on passenger front seat and back seat. Worse rental we have ever had when it came to clean. It was gross.

I will never rent a car with Payless again. I waited in line for almost 2 hours. There were only about 6 people ahead of me when I got in line. One of the other customers asked one of the Payless employees if there was something going on that caused such a long wait. It was a legitimate question, and she asked it kindly. The Payless employee was very short with her and responded with an attitude saying, "It's a holiday weekend." I think we all were aware it was a holiday weekend. He basically dismissed her comment, and his tone of voice indicated he thought she was dumb for even asking that question. When I finally got to the counter after almost 2 hours, I was told it would be another 30-60 minute wait MINIMUM for a car. I was also told the customer ahead of me had already been waiting for 25 minutes and still did not have a car. I asked why there was a wait if I had a reservation, and I've already been waiting for so long. He said they "didn't have any cars." I guess I don't understand how your business works, but it was my understanding that a 2:00 reservation means I would expect a car rental to be available at that time, not 3 hours later at 5pm. It would have been at least 3 hours if I chose to stay and wait. It was my birthday. My best friend had just flown in to town to visit me, who I haven't seen in 2 years due to COVID, and I decided in that moment I was not going to wait any longer. My friend spent her first 2 hours in town with me waiting in line for a car rental at the airport that we never got. This really affected the rest of our day. We had to push our dinner reservation that night to a later time, and the rest of our evening activities got cut short due to the time wasted waiting in line for a car rental with a RESERVATION that we never received. Not to mention, the Payless employee who informed us it was going to be another 25-30 minutes did not seem to care the least bit about the huge inconvenience, and he was not apologetic at all. This was a different employee than the one who was short with the other customer in line. I see a pattern here. The employees were not very kind, genuine, or caring, probably because they have been dealing with angry customers all day. No one should have to work at a job where they are being abused by customers. I personally would be miserable if I worked there; however, there is something called human decency, kindness, and compassion that all humans should give to others. I know I was kind to the Payless employee. I was annoyed and frustrated, but I wasn't rude or condescending like some other customers can be. I made the best decision for myself and my best friend by walking out because I chose not to wait any longer and ruin the rest of my birthday plans. When I told the employee I wanted to cancel my reservation that I had pre-paid for, he said I could not cancel it through Payless because I purchased the reservation through a 3rd party. I am currently reaching out to Kayak, the 3rd party, and navigating that situation, and I'm not sure I will be able to get a refund on my almost $200 car rental. Please do yourself a favor and do not rent a car through a 3rd party because there is no guarantee you will get your money back. Also, don't rent a car from the airport if you can avoid it. There are plenty of other local places in town that will not have a ridiculous wait. Finally, Payless, I strongly suggest you train your staff in having respect, compassion, and kindness for other humans. It doesn't take much to smile and be kind, even when you're having a bad day. I also suggest supporting your staff with incentives and perks so they actually enjoy their job and aren't miserable. Their happiness will be reflected in how they treat the customers they serve. In the meantime, I will definitely never be renting from Payless ever again.

When I did not pickup the vehicle the day (a 4PM pickup) I was supposed to pick up the vehicle and went the following morning, they had cancelled my car. Even though I made this reservation weeks prior, they did not extend the courtesy to contact me (even I was on a plane at 4pm) or wait until the following day for me to show up and pick up my vehicle. This is customer service at its worst. I was stuck in a city with virtually no cars available, except for ones at exorbitant prices. In addition, I had to pay for Uber for two days, 4-5 trips, in addition to finally renting a car for less days and for almost times the original cost from Kayak. My feeling is that I had reserved a car at quite a good price and Hertz felt no obligation to me, as the customer, to meet my needs. They only were concerned about maximizing their profit and is the reason they were so eager to give my reserved car to someone else. BTW, I would have gladly paid for the previous day I was originally scheduled to pick up my reserved car. I will do my best to never rent from Hertz in the future. They are a predatory company and they should be ashamed for the way they treat customers, at least in this instance. I have no doubt they would do this on a regular basis.

Everything else was good.The lighting was so bad in the underground pick-up "choose a car" area that I felt I was choosing a car by braille. As it happened, I chose a vehicle with damage to the bumper area--which was not stated in my copy of the rental agreement. When I turned the car back in they said that I would be charged for it unless their cameras recorded the pre-existing damage. What a relief to eventually be proven "not guilty"!

Not being a major rental agency, the shuttle was more difficult to locate. Personnel were courteous and tried to assist. No car wash on premises so exterior was a little dirty. Was very disappointed in how they handled pick up and drop off times. Flight was early so car pick up was early. They accommodated the change but charged an extra day. We needed to return car two hours after set time and they wanted to charge what appeared to be another $500 per automated emails. A call to personnel was not more helpful. We had to change plans to avoid outrageous predatory additional costs. To add to a bad experience all restrooms were out of order at drop off. Bad overall experience.
4.0 Okay23 Mar 2021
The off site thing was horrible and then they said the extra insurance I bought was from a third party vendor and would not really cover everything if i was involved in an accident so i had to buy more insurance. Just not good.

I would never use kayak again given you affiliate with third rate companies like NU. Look them up, read their reviews. It is a third tier rents company. The location was atrocious, they nickel and dime everything. Kayak should be embarrassed they use.

AffordableFaster pick up, clearer signs at the airport or at least emailed instructions. We had no idea where we were going and found a little sign that said to go the parking lot (easily missed) and once we got to the parking lot there was no way of knowing we were supposed to wait for a shuttle.
4.0 Okay16 Feb 2021
The staff were kind.This is clearly the lowest budget car rental agency at the airport. The shuttle to the offsite rental agency is actually taped together inside (passenger door) and the inside cover of the door was gone completely. When the airport shuttle drops you off at the rental car agencies, it’s almost impossible to find the NU car location.
6.0 Good12 Feb 2021

2.0 Mediocre9 Feb 2021
Nothing.The rental car location is not actually located at the airport!!! Therefore, 20-30 minutes needs to be added to each direction of your trip to be shuttled to the rental car location. At the rental car location, the staff is rude, slow, and generally incompetent. I did not feel safe in the car. Rent from somewhere else!
2.0 Mediocre3 Feb 2021
Friendly shuttle driver... that's itIf they could not falsely advertise that would be great. They shouldn't be allowed to say this is an airport location when they are two shuttles away or a $20 taxi ride if you want to avoid those

Over the top service and excellent vehicle choice.We somehow got a special price on this rental, that being said, the service from staff, pick up, drop off and shuttle to and from the air were all first class. Very high tech coordination with the car unlocking when we got to the rental center. Included were satellite radio, navigation and surprisingly gas mileage over 40 mpg on the highway. This is a great rental opportunity for many.There was the fact that the car was an Audi Quattro, so smaller than I would normally rent, compared to my Ford Edge, but I cannot complain about anything.

Car hire excess insurance in Phoenix
Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) & Theft Protection Waiver
Collision damage waiver and theft protection are insurance options that cover renters from paying high penalty fees if the car is stolen or returned damaged. Some Phoenix car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the rental price but not all of them. We recommend always be aware of your coverage when renting a car in in Phoenix.

Deductible
Keep in mind that car hire excess insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your rental. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a no-deductible option to your Phoenix car rental.
Top tips for renting a car in Phoenix
- Most tourists visiting Phoenix fly into the Sky Harbor International Airport. Here you’ll find it both easy and convenient to rent a car. All of the hire car companies are centrally located in one place. Although this building is off site from the airport, travelers can catch the shuttle just outside of baggage claim to get to the hire car center.
- During your stay in Phoenix, you’ll definitely want to make a visit to the desert, where you’ll find many opportunities to enjoy nature. The Phoenix desert is home to a botanical garden, a zoo, and fishing lagoons. Rent a car and take the scenic route to the desert to enjoy views of the canyons and desert trees.
- Tourists visiting Phoenix will likely have to take I-10 to travel from East to West around the city. Traveling along this highway, the glare from the sun can be unbearable at times -- be sure to have your sunglasses readily accessible to improve visibility and avoid eye strain.
- Downtown Phoenix can experience the largest traffic jams in the city. Travel is most hectic in the business district during rush hour, which is Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. and in the evening from 4 pm. to 5:30 p.m. Traffic in the immediate downtown area might not clear up, however, until around 7:00 p.m. If you need to travel during these hours, be sure to visit the Arizona Department of Transportation website to learn about traffic accidents, construction, and other potential traffic slowdowns. They may provide you with alternative routes to make traveling easier.

If you don’t mind walking, the Phoenix Convention Center has several parking garages around the downtown area, including one close to the Orpheum Theater and another near Heritage Square. During the weekend, you might also easily find street parking for a small fee. If parking on the street, be sure to look for signs related to parking time limits or no-parking zones to avoid getting a ticket.
