CAR RENTAL REVIEWS ON ALAMO IN SACRAMENTO

The service staff didn't seem very honest. They suggested we choose the additional service where you don't need to return the car with a full tank, which is quite expensive. They said it's hard to find gas stations when returning the car, but in the USA, gas stations are more common than convenience stores, so there's no need to worry.

Like: The car was great! The clerk who brought me to my car, totally great!! I loved that there was no change in the cost of the car. It was completely transparent from beginning to end.
Dislike: Drop off lady was less then nice:(

Good car rental company, new vehicles and excellent service.

The Alamo SAC location is very close to the airport with a free shuttle service. It was very easy to find, not crowded, and the service was good.

Signposting of vehicle pick up/drop off when coming from terminal an issue. Okay when first leaving terminal then cannot see where to go as no signposting. Also not sure where to go to drop off as no signposting in car park. Drop off point didn't have Alamo written on it - I had to ask.

Price was reasonably good compared to other sites

Not too many people usually, the staff has a good attitude.

The Sacramento airport car rental center is not very large, but return areas for each rental company are clearly marked. Simply park the car and someone will come to inspect it; they will check the fuel gauge, print a receipt, and you’re good to go. Remember to leave the car keys on the dashboard. You then walk a few meters to the only building, turn right to find Alamo for renting a new car, or walk through the building to take the shuttle to the terminal for your flight. There are several toll bridges in the San Francisco Bay Area, most charge $5, while the Golden Gate Bridge charges $7.5; queues tend to be long, so don't be tempted to use the truck-only lanes on the left to avoid charges, as Alamo will bill you later with an extra service fee (often double). Be cautious of upsells at the rental counter: they might claim that without their separate rescue insurance, Alamo will not assist you (however, if you've bought QEEQ's rescue insurance, you'll still be covered). Also, prepaying for fuel to return the car empty is often more expensive than market prices, and driving it down to empty is more hassle than refilling the tank before returning.
