The agent was very welcoming and processional, Physically the vehicle was clean, mechanically it needs to be checked, the break felt worn out, and sometimes while driving the car would get slow and heavy. This was my experience with that vehicle, I am not a mechanic, ,

The attendant at pick up location was nice and helpful. The truck was clean and worked great but only had 1/4 tank of gas to start, so that was surprising. The U-Haul app would not allow pictures to be uploaded for pick up and it took half an hour to leave.

If you're in the East Bay, Gilman Street Rentals is the best around -- because they are solely focused on getting you the equipment you need. For me, that was a van this time...and Travis had me in and out of there in minutes. Thanks, Travis. I'll be back.

I don't know what you can do to improve for the next customer because I'm very happy with the service ahead. I dealt with two different individuals. One gentleman when I picked up the truck and another gentleman when I brought it back. Both we're very laid-back and confident, friendly and had a very positive vibe about themselves. So like I said, no comments to improve my experience, but I hope my experience will bring forth new customers by what I'm sharing here.. DW from Berkeley.

I've now used the 6th Street location three times for my current move and it's been easy both going and coming. Travis is a delight, professional, helpful, personable and kind. He always made sure that he gave me a van that had sufficient fuel to take care of my needs. The only thing that made me at all possibly concerned was that the washer fluid detector generally says they are low. It's hardly a make-or-break item but just in case I were to have driven through a mud storm...! This is definitely a very good location, all around.

This location could use some sort of signage to indicate what to do with the equipment, especially since it's staffed so few hours of the day. Especially when the UHaul app is so buggy and you can't go through the app's return experience (it quite literally never loads the camera to take the photos required) it would be helpful to have some kind of assurance/acknowledgement of receipt when returning keys even without the app.

I can't say whose at fault, but the truck I rented had a weak battery. I parked it and put on the flashers. Took about an hour to unload the truck. And came back and put in the key and the battery was completely dead necessitating a tow truck and costing me time.
