    I have used National religiously for three years now. I have tried other rental agencies. No one comes close to their professionalism and kindness.

    As a frequent traveler, I’ve rented cars at countless locations – and I’ve also rented at the Pensacola branch several times already. Every time the experience has been great, but my most recent visit was truly outstanding thanks to Lucas. Lucas delivers service on a completely different level. He is professional, attentive, fast, and genuinely committed to making the rental process smooth and pleasant. You can immediately tell that he cares about his work and about the customer experience. I can honestly say that Lucas provides the best service I’ve ever experienced at a car rental company. For someone who rents cars as often as I do, that makes a huge difference. Thank you, Lucas – National is lucky to have you on the team!

    The National service itself was fine, but the vehicle I received—a Toyota Corolla—was in poor condition. A few key issues: 1. The car was too small for my height (6’2”), forcing me to drive hunched over all weekend. 2. Significant road noise made it hard to hear GPS directions. 3. The dashboard rattled constantly. 4. The low tire pressure light stayed on despite checking the tires. 5. The infotainment screen would randomly go black and only reset after shutting off the car. Overall, not a great experience. I wanted to flag these issues in case vehicle quality can be reviewed for future rentals.
