Pros:
Staff were fine, drop off was easy. Car was fuel efficient.Cons:
While I was driving on the highway, a spider decided to emerge from the rear view mirror and descend from its web onto my arm, then lap, then the floor of the car. Naturally, I swerved as I was trying to swat this spider out of my face which could have been bad. Car seats were Very dirty.10.0 Wonderful

Aug 2020
Pros:
They were closed for my pickup time, so I wasn't able to get the car. I had to walk to a nearby competitor and ended up paying more.Cons:
Be clear about hours, and don't let me book a car for pickup if I can't pick it up.2.0 Poor
Mar 2020
Pros:
NothingCons:
I did not pick up this rental, kayak never sent me a confirmation for my rental and when I called enterprise to cancel they said I won’t be charged if I don’t pick up the car.9.2 Wonderful
Aug 2019
Pros:
Staff was very helpful and assisted with offering alternate options when there was a potential credit card issue.Cons:
It was pretty difficult to actually find the office if you’re not familiar with the area. Especially when you are arriving to pick up the rental. We asked the doorman for a building nearby and he felt like it was too complicated to even give verbal directions so he ended up walking us there himself.9.6 Wonderful
Aug 2019
Pros:
Excellent on site customer service.6.0 Okay
Jul 2019
Pros:
The staff was friendly. There was an issue with our vehicle and although not related to the car rental we had a rough trip but the manager was so apologetic for the condition of our vehicle and sentimental to our situation, she comped our family the vehicle no charge. Above and beyond!Cons:
Even tho in the end everything worked out, having a thorough walk around of the vehicle and a written contract when receiving the vehicle is important to do.8.8 Very good

Jun 2021
Pros:
Car was clean, and manager at drop-off was kind enough to compensate us for the issues we ran into with the car.Cons:
Agent at the counter tried to deceptively add a hefty insurance charge to the trip. Car clearly had not been serviced in a while because it developed major engine issues just a few days into our trip (including the engine shutting off while traveling through the mountains, we needed to engage the parking brake to stop the car), and exchanging it was a very difficult and laborious process.10.0 Wonderful

Oct 2020
Cons:
The toll package is crazy, we paid $1 to get out of Massachusetts, coming back in we hit that toll with no cash, but it’s only 1.50 it’s a really bad place to have a toll and it should just be included! Especially since there is a toll receiver on the car.9.6 Wonderful

May 2021
Pros:
Desk staff was helpful.Cons:
Car wasn't clean, Lot attendant was not very friendly. seemed annoyed we had to report a scratch on the car and didnt know the exit process at this location We'd been told car had EZ pass enabled, but most tolls showed it unpaid. Hoping we didn't rack up a lot of fines.2.0 Poor
Apr 2021
Cons:
The car smelled bad when we received it, it was quite damages. After a moth of hacving returned it without any issues, Avis is claiming that I was responsible for the damage which I was absolutely not. I have insurance and their signed form which already proves the damage was the previous to my rental dat, but still I need to be involved in defending this claims and tenths of long and time wasting calls with them and their claims company. I will NEVER rent from Avis again9.6 Wonderful
Mar 2020
Pros:
Easy pick-up. Easy drop-off. Flat-rate for tolls was amazing. No fuss at any step in the process. Both offices were friendly staffed and quick.Cons:
The floors in the back of the car were a little dirty. Not a huge deal. The car also didn't get particularly good mileage for an economy, but again, no biggie.7.6 Good
