I arrived early, 2.5 hours before the scheduled pick-up time. With my limited English, I managed to complete the rental process with the help of an African American guy at the counter. Since I was early, the reserved car wasn't back yet. They switched me to a car of the same class. The picture showed a Nissan, but I couldn't find a Nissan in the lot. When I asked the staff, he casually pointed to the area and said I could pick any car I liked. How generous! When returning the car, I drove to the designated spot where a white guy scanned the rental code, checked the gas and mileage, printed a receipt from his device, and everything was done in just 3 minutes. Quick and easy.

The store staff were very helpful and did not try to upsell anything.

Everything was great, really good in all aspects!

We were assisted by an enthusiastic and humorous African-American lady. She only briefly mentioned additional insurance, and when we declined, she did not push further or show any dissatisfaction. Overall, the evaluation of Alamo is very high.

Returned and picked up the car at Auckland Airport. Small airport with fewer people and even fewer cars to choose from. The so-called 'free upgrade' is basically based on luck; you get whatever car is available. I didn't encounter any Chinese service, but my English is fine. Both pickup and drop-off are self-service, very convenient and straightforward.
