Avis Rent A Car

I reserved a compact car online one day in advance. When I arrived, all of the paperwork and the key were ready to go. The employee processed me and quickly pointed me in the direction of my vehicle. He was polite, helpful and wasn’t pushy when trying to sell me extras that I didn’t want. When I dropped the vehicle off at noontime on Saturday, nobody was there, but a drop-​box made it much more convenient.
This was my first time using Avis after having previous bad experiences with Enterprise. One advantage with Avis is they always start you off with a full tank of gas, as opposed to Enterprise which could start you off with a quarter of tank (it’s very difficult to judge your fuel mileage so you return it the same way). Avis’ policy of starting you off with a full tank avoids that problem.
The car was very clean — it looks like they must clean it after each rental.
Instead of getting a ride there, I parked my personally owned vehicle in the airport parking lot (didn’t trust it for the long-​distance drive I was making). Since Stewart Airport chased away all of the major airlines and hardly does any business, the long-​term parking lot was nearly empty, and I was still able to park close enough to walk to Avis and only paid $ 10 to park for 24 hours.
