Car was not cleaned off or plugged in when I got it. Would have been nice for someone to have knocked off the snow and at least plugged it in during the winter temps.10.0 Wonderful

Dustin, July 2020
Pros:
Pick up and drop off were quick and convenient. It was a quick walk to the lot.Cons:
We liked the Honda CRV but the gas tank was small (12 gallons) for the amount of driving we did. We were stopping almost daily to fill up and in Alaska that requires some planning.2 locations in Fairbanks

8.4 Very Good
Anonymous, Mar 2020
Cons:
They said they don't even stock the car (or even the brand of car) I booked, so they gave me a different one, which other companies were offering for less money. I told them this was a bait and switch and asked if they could give a discount, since I would have gone with their competitors at the lower rate. They required me to prove that the car I booked was what I claimed, since they apparently don't have any record on their side of the car. After I proved the booking and requested a manager, they provided discount, which is fair, but this experience shouldn't happen.10.0 Wonderful

Terry, May 2021
Pros:
The people in Fairbanks were wonderful! The car we rented was not at the airport, so we asked the airport Enterprise if there was a shuttle. The young man at the airport went above and beyond. He called the other station and had someone come pick us up. He then came out and checked on us twice to see if we had been picked up. Then Jesse picked us up and was very friendly. There were a shortage of cars so he gave us an upgrade for free. Everyone we dealt with was so pleasant and accommodating. The young lady in Anchorage when we turned in the car at the airport was also very cheerful and kind.Cons:
We really had a great experience. Nothing negative to say at all.10.0 Wonderful
Anonymous, June 2020
Pros:
Easy, nice vehicle, no issues.Cons:
Nothing. I suppose if I had encountered a problem, that would have put Enterprise to the test, seeing how they handled it.8.0 Very Good

Pros:
The lady at the counter was friendly and polite. And very apologetic.Cons:
My reservation did not work. Hertz did not have any cars available even though Kayak decided they would book my reservation anyway and make me think I had a car. I had planned for 22/day which was the rate I was given. Instead I was forced to use the only car agency that had a car available and it cost me 5x as much. $110. I will never use kayak again and I will strongly recommend others use a different site to compare rates or book. Since kayak is useless if it can’t actually book my reservation properly. It’s -20F in Alaska , that’s where I am. And I was forced to overpay for a rental, in any other situation I would have walked but sadly my hands were tied in this situation. 0/5 very poor quality site and poor quality service. I recommend people do not use this site any chance I can now. Which is often since I work in Customer Service and Tourism.10.0 Wonderful
