I reserved a car for noon. I showed up a few minutes past noon and the door was locked. I knocked and the lady said they are closed. I explained I rented a car to be picked up at noon. She said said they were closed and even if they weren’t, she didn’t have a clean car to give me. She was not kind or helpful. I ended up losing money on this rental I never got.
