The gentleman who helped me at the front desk at pick-up was exceptional. He handled my rental with efficiency, clarity, and professionally. It was unclear when I got to the airport how to contact AVIS since they have no desk. I woman from one of the other agencies had to contact AVIS on my behalf so someone could come pick me up.

Made a reservation for airport pickup. Upon arrival we were told that the airport location was closed so we had to drive into town to get the car. This added 1 hour of delay
