The rental itself was fine. The car was nice, newer, and clean. The Gold Plus check in was smooth and the car was waiting for us in the space indicated. The issue is with Hertz staff at MDW. They lack... See more

Car was good. However, I had an issue with a lost item. I accidentally left a valuable item in the car. I opened a 'Lost and Found' ticket but did not hear back. I tried calling but nobody picks up th... See more
This was a smooth rental experience with friendly staff and a quality vehicle. The only reason I'm giving it a four star instead of a five star is because the car had a strong odor of smoking, which w... See more

Over charged
When renting our car we were told not to touch the device for paying tolls or else we would be charged a daily rate rather than by the toll. On the last day we realized that the box had been open the entire time. Consequently we were billed over a $100 more than we should have paid.
Hertz Chicago Midway Beware
Hertz policy is for someone to remain at the counter 2 hours after closing time if a flight gets delayed, which mine did, I arrived at 1am, 1 hour after closing, nobody was there so I had to wait until workers showed up at 6am and when I brought that up that there wasn’t anybody here I got told “when it’s time to close it’s time to close”, I’ll never rent with Hertz again.

No wait at all
No wait at all. They gave me a van much bigger than i wanted ,so it was not an upgrade for me. Otherwise 5 stars.

It was a very easy process to pick up and drop off the vehicle. The vehicle was clean and a great size for our needs. The only negative was that I had requested a toll pass but it was not provided. Luckily the charge was removed from our bill.
Hertz has lost my loyalty
I am President’s Circle and the best car to choose was a Nissan Kicks with 20K miles. Probably going to make me start choosing others like Sixt since they seem to care about Customer loyalty. No one even seemed to care……
My flight was delayed
My flight was delayed. I received an email stating that an agent will still be at the location two hours after my delay. When I got to the location at 12:48a nobody was there and I ended up having to wait until they opened up at 6a to get assistance. Meaning I actually had to stay awake all night on their bench due to nobody stayed over. Sad situation since I needed the rental to get to my hotel. I had no other way. The rental was already paid for.
This is a great station
This is a great station. They always have a good variety of cars and the car we requested was available. It was clean and it was road ready. We have never had a problem renting at this station. That’s kind of a big deal!
Very fast exchange I got in I got out
Overcharge of Credit Card
My security deposit is had been charged to my card and not returned after almost 5 days. This is unacceptable and predatory consumer practice. With people struggling in this world , holding a deposit for a product that has been returned and inspected with no issues shows lack processes. As a loyal customer, I will have to consider this behavior going forward when choosing who to use for rental services.

Basically I checked the car in 5 hours early. When I called and asked the receptionist if I was going to get a credit, I was told Yes. My final bill did not reflect that. I’m very disappointed.
