      Specific vehicle hired was not avaliable at pick up. We had specifically wanted a 4 wheel drive as we planned on going to the snow. We offered a 2 wheel drive as an alternative which was not what we were after. Unfortunately had to pay for an upgrade but did get a good discount although it was still expensive for a two week hire.

      The rental drop off is not in the airport terminal. You need to take a shuttle bus to the terminal. I told them I have lots of luggage, and it will be difficult to carry it onto the bus, so one of the Hertz team members drove me to the terminal, meaning I did not have to unload the car!

      Car itself was great. However insurance was really expensive. I paid just about $1000 in insurance alone for my rental which was 50% of the cost of the entire rental. Wish I wasn't talked into it by the counter people, otherwise good car.

      Loved the Atlas VW. Cruise control was the best thing, the sensor slows the car when another vehicle in front, at the distance you set, and gets back to your set speed on its own. This really helped our long 40 hr trip. The car is not to big, not too small and easy to manage on the freeway and parking. This is a good car for everyday use.

      The counter staff was professional and helpful. I had a little trouble hearing him because of the mask. With one person ahead of me at the counter, it took about 15 minutes for me to get to the counter. Between Hertz, Thrifty and I think it was Dollar, it would be nice to have a floater to handle any counter that needs the extra help.

      The beginning was a disaster. Long lines. Slow moving. I wasn't in the car I had reserved. General chaos. The people at the desk were polite, but they were overwhelmed. It ended well because the manager put me in a different car at a reduced price.

Then several days later they have made a further $62 charge which was not agreed and I have not been invoiced for. Not happy in the slightest.
