budget-conscious
This is the second time I've rented from Alamo and it couldn't be simpler. Everything is done on line and when you get to the airport, you just go to the section marked with the type of car you've chosen (compact, sub-compact, etc.) and select the one you like best. The keys are in it, and all you need to do is show your credit card and reservation form at the exit and off you go. No waiting in lines, no dealing with dummies. Love…

not rich, a frequent traveler, seeker of fun and interesting places, fuel-conscious, expecting good, fair service, married, budget-conscious, value conscious
I had the best experience with Alamo Car Rental. It was the first time I ever rented a car. I started by going on line to Alamo.com, I put in the information of the trip I was taking, and the site showed me the vehicles available and the price for the time I needed it. I had looked up other car rental places and Alamo was the least expensive by far. I then picked out a car, I received a reservation confirmation, and printed it out. I took my confirmation to my local Alamo at the airport counter, gave them my confirmation number, paid, and received my keys. The customer service…

budget conscious traveler, value conscious
I recently (December 2007) rented a 2007 Alero in Orlando to drive around disney and Universal properties and the surrounding area. My travel arrangements were made by AAA, so all I had to do was walk up to the counter, give them my credit card, and walk across the street to the parking garage. They allow you to just walk up to any of their vehicles and select the one you want and drive away! What a pleasant surprise compared to the old days when I had to practically give a blood sample!!! When returning the vihicle, I just pulled back into the garage at the airport…

a frequent traveler, budget-conscious, appreciative of good service, practical
I always use Alamo rental cars when I travel. They always have the best deal and have alot of promotions to keep the costs down. I like the fact that you can just pick out your own car instead of them just assigning one to you. I had a problem with my last rental and the customer service agents were really friendly and worked with me to solve the problem. I've been renting cars from Alamo for the last 10 years and will continue to do so in the…

business traveler, Every day computer user, looking for high quality, rude service offends me, Home owner, price conscious
I am a frequent business traveler, and cannot find anyone offering more value than Alamo. I check every time to see if cheaper cars are available, and Alamo is always the chepaest. This is for compact and mid-sized cars. Check-out and check-in are simple and fast, and they have a free shuttle to most airports. I did meet rude employees in Houston and in San Diego (or I would give 5 stars), but otherwise they have been great. —…
