While waiting in line with other customers, one person on the counter and while another person came, she took her sweet time taking a customer. One customer went to the counter and the guy there was busy on his phone and did not acknowledge him at all. Deplorable customer service at this
National location. Our car was not ready as it had just been returned and we had to wait quite a while for it to be ready. This was time that was wasted from our vacation in San Diego. I will not recommend this company for the lack of customer support and attention. The car we got had a screen that was extremely dark and thus it was useless as a navigation tool.

I've had nothing but good experiences every time i rent with national. Will recommend. The Long Beach location accommodated my Executive status even though they don't have the Emerald Aisle.

Good rental company, easy pick up/drop off. Keep in mind that they close at 10 pm, so in case if your flight is delayed you will have to manage your transportation yourself.

Jose at National is outstanding! I have rented at National LGB 3-4 times per month over the past year. One of the reasons I choose to fly into Long Beach is the consistently smooth and fast rental experience you get when Jose is working. Jose is always welcoming, professional, and gets you on your way quickly.
When Jose is there, you know the experience will be excellent! I wish more employees at the National booth followed his example, others are noticeably less friendly and accommodating.
