There is a shuttle bus from the airport to the rental company, which is very convenient. Once you get off, you can go straight to the counter to complete the formalities, and the process is very fast, taking about five minutes per person. They simply asked if the car would be returned with a full tank, without trying to upsell anything. The most noteworthy incident during this car rental was that the car window was smashed on the second day, and my backpack was stolen. Fortunately, all valuables and important documents had been safely stored and were not stolen. After calling the police, the officers who arrived on the scene handled the case efficiently. It seemed like they were used to car window smashings and treated it as routine. The staff at the supermarket entrance even took me to another spot to see the shattered glass from the smashed car window, and they seemed very calm about the whole situation.

The car rental company's queue management is well-organized. They promote insurance and full-tank services, but once you decline, they generally don't push further. Returning the car is simple—just hand in the keys. The deposit pre-authorization hasn't been released yet, and I'm not sure how long it will take. I'll update my review once I find out.

During the paperwork process, the Hertz agent from Asia had a constant smile but also tried to persuade me to buy additional insurance and even encouraged an upgrade. Even though I had already purchased full insurance, he still claimed that I didn’t have roadside assistance. After repeatedly emphasizing that I had bought all the necessary insurance, he finally directed me to the car lot. Be cautious, as this is another potential pitfall. There were about five or six different cars parked, but only two of them were actually available for me. The others required an upgrade (if you accidentally took one, you might get stopped when leaving, wasting a lot of time). After taking several photos and confirming repeatedly, I finally got my car (there was no Ford Focus as I had reserved). Instead, I got a Kia Forte, which turned out to be nice to drive with lane-keeping assist. Driving from Los Angeles to Las Vegas was stress-free. American drivers are very disciplined, making the experience very enjoyable.

Overall it was okay. It might have been due to our limited English proficiency, but we didn't hear the rental company mention anything about changing cars, so we were a bit confused when picking up the car.
