No Avis rep there for my pick up time and I had to get to the airport. Did not have the car I reserved - I wanted a Kia Soul and got a Toyota Camry. Needed more space because I was purchasing furniture. Car had many dents and scrapes.

They did not have a car for me. They suggested that I call other locations to see if they had any vehicles. They expected me to try to find a car at one of their locations. They said they'd call if a car came in but I never heard from them. I finally found a car with a different company.
