do not used Value Car Rental

I was charged an extra fee when picking up the vehicle. I asked about the vehicle I had originally reserved and he said that it also said "or similar" and said that was the only vehicle available. The vehicle must have just came in, seats were stained (was not cleaned) and had visible damages. If it was not 7pm, I would have asked for my money back and found other transportation.

The staff at the counter was helpful, but tried her very hard to sell us the insurance and EZPass. We have comprehensive coverage from our insurance so we didn't need one from this company. However, she lied as to tell as that there are many tolls to pass (even just going to Disney), and if we miss a toll the ticket is very expensive. Of course, this made us think twice and purchased $8.99 per day for the EZ Pass (for 9 days that we were there). Lo and behold, the only toll we passed is coming from the airport and going back to the airport. So for 7 days we were paying for an unused EZPass. The van (Dodge Caravan) is very spacious and clean. It is fast and quiet. No issues there.

Booking was fast, price drop was helpful.

Being located at a Holiday Inn was strange. When I got on a shuttle for the airport @ 5am, I had waited for about 25 mins. I was the first passenger in line and by the time the shuttle to airport provided by Holliday Inn arrived there wasn’t enough room for everyone waiting. After boarding and having people that would have to wait for 30 mins for the shuttle to return the driver asked if there was anyone on board that was from the car rental company, if so we had to exit! To be honest I didn’t say a word because if I had to wait again I might miss my flight. The car rental assured me that there would be no problem using there shuttle because they didn’t open until 6am but unfortunately that proved to be false. The family group of 6 that had just dropped off there car and had to get to the airport where told they would have to wait until there was room left once hotel guest had been taken care of. Over all I really liked the rental company and my car but not having a shuttle running if there own before 6am was unacceptable and caused a big problem.

Like: I was skeptical at first to book with Value cars after reading their reviews. But to my surprise, the pickup was done from the airport in about 10 minutes after I called them and the Office staff were friendly. All the documentation formalities were completed in about 15 minutes. The car was clean inside and out. Returning the car was done in less than 10 minutes. It was a good experience this time. May be I was just lucky !! :-) I will surely go with them again.
Dislike: There was only one person at the reception who takes care of customers. If there are multiple customers waiting, it might take some time to get the documentation done.

Dislike: The sent in the car was over powering. I have allergies and the smell never left the vehicle.
