Overall, the car rental company was pretty good. The car was very new with just over 10,000 miles, which is commendable.

The staff basically had no sense of service and were trying to squeeze more money out of us. I strongly advise everyone not to choose this car rental company. First, the employee at the counter spent half an hour fiddling with the computer, trying to upgrade me to a better car model. He informed me that the car I originally booked was unavailable (the premium version would cost over $500 more), but as soon as he realized I wasn't going to pay extra, we were immediately told to get our car. Speaking of picking up the car, the parking lot actually had plenty of the model I originally booked, despite being told otherwise. Fortunately, I didn't upgrade. The pickup process was entirely self-service with no guidance or assistance. It was dark, and nobody helped with installing the child seat. A group of employees just stood around chatting. When we asked for help with the child seat, we were told, 'I can tell you how to install it, but I can't help you.' I had to give one star because there was no option for zero stars. If negative ratings were possible, I would definitely choose that.

There was a free shuttle from the airport to the car rental company, which was very convenient. The staff on the bus were friendly, but they do expect tips, which is understandable considering their hard work. The staff at the rental company were okay. However, there was one dissatisfaction: on the website, different prices were listed for small, medium, and large SUVs. But when we arrived, we found that as long as you paid for a 5-seat SUV, you could pick any car of the same specification. Had we known this, we would have paid for the cheapest SUV and chosen a bigger car. The parking lot had no management, and the car keys were left inside the cars. You just find your car and drive out to register at the exit.

The service attitude was quite average. During the process, the staff kept talking on their mobile phones and were constantly trying to upsell me to upgrade the car model. Although the rental company claimed to provide a car similar to the Grand Cherokee, that was not possible in the US. Upgrading to a Grand Cherokee required an additional cost, and I ended up with a Hyundai Santa Fe. If I wanted a Grand Cherokee, it would have cost an extra $30/day. A friend of mine, who followed the same route but arrived at a different time, was quoted $50/day for the upgrade. I arrived at the rental location at around noon in Los Angeles, and there were very few car options available. Most of the available cars were small SUVs with over 20,000 miles on them. The Santa Fe could hold four 26-inch suitcases. Overall, the car rental experience was very average and not very satisfactory.

Didn’t like being asked to upgrade for more money on a car we didn’t need, trying to up sell on pick up
