Mietwagen in Carlsbad

Negativ: When I booked I put in arrival at San Diego airport and you booked me out of Carlsbad which is an hour away from the airport! Avis was good enough to find a car for me but it was over $100 more than my booking price!!! That is why I booked online and ahead of time to get a decent rate.

Negativ: Main issue was that the price rose 200% when I went to pick up the car. Instead of about $250 the rental cost closer to $500. Very disappointed with the outrageous charges for changing pick up location. I expected a small variation but the resulting fees were astronomical.

Service Stunk

Positiv: Hybrid comfy car. Clean on the inside. Accurate pricing upon drop off. Easy drop off and courteous

Negativ: It may be Kayak but they were closing at my reservation time so I had to rush, not did they want to give me the time of Day about upgrading or explaining where to get my car. It was obvious that they wanted to leave (it was Christmas Eve, but I was not told their closing time). They said I could upgrade at any location, which wasn’t true. No one would without charging me $1k+ on my total rental and restarting a new contract. The rental car also had writing in the window like it was just picked up from being impounded. That was kinda janky

Wrong airport

Positiv: I did not like anything because this website is very tricky and searches nearby while still saying your initial search area- misleading

Negativ: Was searching San Diego and was brought to carlsband instead.. couldn't get there and had to pay walk in fees at different rental place
