2/7/23

Pros: There was absolutely nothing I liked about this experience it was terrible

Cons: The fact that there was no car available for me for a 4-Hour period of time so I rented from another car agency at the rental car facility I will never use this agency again

United Kingdom

Ford Focus 3d

9/20/22

Pros: Thrifty staff were excellent. No hidden fees, no faffing about. Simple, straightforward and efficient.

Cons: There are 2 different areas that were advertised as thrifty - the one to the right should be removed to avoid confusion. The computer in the car wouldn't integrate with the smart consistently when plugged in, but other than that, the condition of the car was great.
