There were quite a few people waiting in line for the paperwork, which indicates that this company is pretty good. Signing, picking up, and returning the car were all very simple.

This time we took an 11-day self-drive trip in the western U.S. and chose Alamo. The price was definitely the most affordable. Overall, the car was in good condition and we had no breakdowns! They will recommend some model upgrades and insurance services, but it is entirely up to you whether to choose them. Returning the car was also convenient and quick. Be prepared that the specified brand and model in the same category might not be available. We were lucky to get the Chrysler 200 we reserved, and it was the only one available. If it wasn't, we would have had to choose the Jetta (known as Sagitar in China). If you plan to upgrade the model on-site, it will definitely be more expensive than booking through QEEQ, so it's best to choose a satisfactory model group in advance. Compared to costs for accommodation and food, car rental in the U.S. is very cheap. Renting a bicycle in San Francisco costs $35 a day, without insurance and tax.

Overall it's quite good, with a competitive price. They didn't push any extra items when picking up the car. Since I was planning a road trip, I opted for roadside assistance at $5 per day, which is reasonable. Alamo is quite friendly about opting out of certain charges, like crossing the Golden Gate Bridge (north to south); if you pay online yourself, you can automatically opt-out of Alamo’s charges without contacting them. Picking up a car at San Francisco airport was quite intense, it felt like there were more people than cars, and you had to grab one as soon as it appeared.
