1. After landing in Salt Lake City, the car pick-up process took at least an hour of waiting in a very long line. There were only two service counters open, and the staff worked very slowly without showing any effort to make things convenient for customers. 2. During the car pick-up, we unknowingly ended up purchasing additional insurance. It was only after checking the bank statement and consulting with Zuzuche that we discovered this charge. Looking back, the staff’s communication was evasive, and it turned out to be a form of hidden charge. This behavior is quite frustrating and unpleasant. I’m not sure if this is exclusive to this Thrifty location in Salt Lake City. On my prior rental in San Jose, everything was transparent and straightforward.

Did not get the car I wanted, the provided vehicle did not meet requirements, the space was too small to fit the luggage. The rental company even said there was too much luggage. Poor service—two people with two suitcases count as too much?

Overall pretty good, a nice experience.

The staff persistently tried to upsell without asking.

Awful. Total bait and switch! I was given a bill of $127 at drop off. I later got an email with a price of $266. 74 minutes earlier than estimated return time, and I am charged an early return fee! What is that? The quoted daily rate went up. All total bogus charges added on to the original bill.

The process was quick and easy, and what I thought was a good deal. Turns out the good deal was a bait and switch. Nothing the actual easy renter cars can be blamed for.
