Easy pickup. Car was clean with no issues. Return location was a bit difficult as it was in the city with very tight streets. Also, the gps location was correct however there was no entrance from the street. I had to drive around the block and enter via a small alleyway from the opposite direction, none of which was indicated by the gps or the return location info supplied by Hertz.

The car I was given had mechanical issues. Had to return car after driving it for 2. 5 miles. I was told I couldn't have another car as I was being blamed for the mechanical fault in the car. I have never experienced such incompetence and poor customer service in the 40 plus years that I have been driving and hiring cars in the UK, US and Australia. Subsequently my two day visit to Cambridge was a disaster as I had to use taxis and public transport to get around. Not satisfactory at all as I was hoping to do some sightseeing with my grandson who is working at a school just outside Cambridge as part of a Gap Year placement during my two day visit. I was appalled by the attitude of the Budget /Avis representative I had to deal with who kept saying that I would have to refer to the company I made the booking with as his role was only to give out the cars. He told me that everything was closed until Monday. My request to use the company phone to contact Customer Service was also refused on the basis that they took a long time to answer the phone. I was also asked to pay a further 67 Pounds to have the car assessed which I refused to do. This whole experience apart from ruining my day.. from around 11.50 am to around 3.30pm was one of the most humiliating and disappointing events of my life.

Cambridge has so much to offer. You could chill out for a while in this place and not run out of things to see. If you'd like to take in as much as you can in this dynamic metropolis, a rental car is a must. Keep in mind that city driving generally comes with tight streets and sparse parking spaces. But don't worry — a mini or compact car can make this a lot less daunting. If you're eager to skip town and check out the forests that Cambridge is known for, you'll want a rental car with more power and room to move. A mid-size or full-size SUV will make that scenic road trip even more fun.
For some, owning a high-end vehicle is little more than a pipe dream. But renting the car of your dreams is easier than you think! Imagine cruising the open roads in a high-end convertible, even if it's just for a short while. Or maybe you're just after a set of wheels to get you quickly and safely from point A to point B. Flashy or affordable? Whatever you decide, there's a rental car to suit your style in Cambridge.
