Pros:
Nothing - terrible experience. I hope Enterprise goes bankrupt with Hertz. They deserve it.Cons:
I reserved a car, they didn't have it. I was told a car "might" be available later that afternoon and I should just wait to hear from them. I never heard back. I called later and they said the car was waiting for me to pick up and I would be charged regardless. Terrible, awful service. Whats the point of a reservation if they don't hold the car? Reminds me of the Seinfeld episode of the same occurrence. Lets hope rental companies all go bankrupt and a smart, lean tech company takes over like Uber / Lyft has done to the cab industry. These horrible companies deserve it.10,0 Wonderful

Pros:
The gentleman who helped check me in was professional and wanted to help me but still strong armed me into renting the car for 5 days even though I only needed it for 3 and there’s a drop box for this purpose. Furthermore, the car renter to me was old, dusty, and in need of service. Not at all what I was hoping for when renting a car on vacation for $300. Clinton at the Studio City location was very helpful and made the situation better and followed up with me fairly.Cons:
A reservation line that answers phones after hours, clearer policies when booking as well as hours of operation at various locations, better vehicles available, better customer service...2,0 Poor
