Took the shuttle bus to the store, a lot of people, took about 2 hours to complete the process. They seemed to push the insurance, and not doing my homework cost me over $100 for the GPS, which was painful. Booked a Grand Cherokee, but ended up with a Nissan mid-size SUV, which was quite disappointing.

The pick-up process was not very smooth. I have rented cars in Los Angeles many times, and I only needed to present my Chinese driver's license. But this time, I was assisted by an older Indian man whose attitude was extremely cold, filled with arrogance and disdain. He insisted we provide a translation of the license. Later, we switched to a white service agent, and we didn't need any of that—just signed and took the car. The mindset of Indian and Pakistani staff really needs to be adjusted. During the drop-off, they insisted that we write down the mileage, which was never required before.

Customer service staff had an indifferent attitude.

Alamo's service was unexpectedly good. They offer self-service car pickup, although I used the counter. Self-service is probably very convenient during busy times. The car was in good condition, and you can choose your model within the same category, which is a nice touch. Maybe because I bought full insurance on QEEQ, there were no extra sales pitches like before.

Renting and returning the car were both very convenient, especially with the shuttle service at the airport.
