I'm not sure what you point is. You can reserve the car through the Hertz website. When you pick up the car, you go to a Hertz counter. To me it doesn't matter if the franchise is operated by Hertz or by a subcontractor. Ultimately, it reflects on Hertz.

Madeline Ramos is the absolute best, she's pulled my a** out of the fire a couple of times with traffic problems and she will deliver and pick-up the car at your hotel. The car are always in good shape,and I even called her at home on her days off with questions or problems.

Is she still around? And what kind of prices?

Anything simular to Ugly Duckling Rent-A-Car on the north coast? You know, beat up used cars cheap...yeah, I'm cheap Just looking for "cheap" transportation.

I usually rent a bike but am tired of getting my dancin shoes wet, not to mention the close brushes with death!!!

thanks

I just returned from the DR and had a very pleasant experience with Adventure rent a car. Raphael greeted us at the airport on time and even drove us to our hotel since we were unsure how to get there. The whole experience was very smooth. Everyone was extremely nice. I would definitely use them again.

What is their rate per day?

As far as price is concerned, check the internet.

We've been renting cars at POP's National Car rental for 10 years. This year was the first year we made our reservation online. We went through the same agency - same personel - same model car. The only difference was we made our reservation online. It was the lowest price we've ever paid.

Check it out.

When I rent a car I always use avis. They have new cars, the most locations , and the price came out to around 50.00 a day for a compact. I had an accident (broken side view mirror) and they gave me a new car with no problems. I always use the internet for reservations . They have locations at all the airports , most bust stops, and major city locations. I used to rent from dollar but had poor service at sti which forced me to switch to avis to my pleasent surprise.

how much did you pay?

I recently rented a Nissan Tilda, 4-door, automatic, with A/C from National/Alamo for 7 days and the bill came to $287.63. The car comfortable holds four adults with a large trunk space. The super subcompact model would be about $45 less.

The key is to use the CDW/Theft Protection provided by the CC company. The only insurance you will need to pay for is third party liability which is $5 a day. Call your CC company, not the bank, and request for them to email you a document stating the coverage which the rental agency may or may not ask for.

If you have any luggage never, ever rent the Chevy Spark.
