Comment: Had a few issues with the rvs functionality and it caused some inconveniences but its what happens when you rent. Some people take care of things that arent theres and some people treat them like they could care less.Felicia addressed all of our issues and showed professionalism thru out our conversation. On that alone we will be a returning customer. Thank you Felicia for making our experience with El monte rv a good one!

Comment: OMG Madelyn you are the BEST!!! 💫You are very professional 😀 you impressed us with your knowledge and excellent customer service. We called other rental offices which fell short on many levels. We want to thank you for your guidance through this process, for being kind and patient with us, for answering all our questions and for making our reservation for us especially since we were walk-ins.We HIGHLY recommend El Monte RV - San Bernardino.We are looking forward to our family vacation in mid July 2023! (3 weeks & counting)Hopefully 🤞 our RV rental & our Summer Beach Vacation will go as smoothly as our office visit with Madelyn 🌈 !

Comment: I had a bad experience with customer service Felicia was very rude with an angry demeanor. She was fast at explaining things since it was my first time renting an Rv she didn’t have patience.I ended up running into traffic on my way back to returning the RV, just to find out i was getting charged extra for returning it late,If I had I known that i would have extended my rental and enjoyed an extra day for the amount of money i had to pay for being late.I will never rent from this place and I don’t recommend you doing the same thing.Very rude and horrible customer service, they definitely didn’t make me feel that they wanted me to come back as a matter of fact they made sure I didn’t feel welcomed, smh

Comment: I rented a class C RV at the San Bernardino location. Everything went smoothly and the two employees I spoke with (Madelyn and Andrea) were both very helpful in answering my many questions. Keep in mind they do not provide any linens, kitchenware, or toiletries (other than 1 roll of toilet paper) as part of the RV rental.

Comment: I really recommend EL MONTE RV RENTALS I had a great experience with EL MONTE RV RENTALS. The staff was very helpful and the process was very quick. We received the RV in great conditions, very clean, sleeping arrangements were no problem since the RV was so spacious. We had no issues which made it such a great experience for me and my family. The RV was easy to drive and to set up. I will definitely be renting from here every year for our annual camp event. Thank you for the great experience. My family and I look forward renting from you next year.

Comment: Overall a positive experience at the end of everything. We rented a lovely RV for 10 days and it functioned pretty well. There was an issue with the furnace, which led us to talk with customer support a number of times (amazingly helpful people!), and 100 miles out of our way to get a repair (fantastic repair place). We lost a day of our trip, which was unfortunate. El Monte RV was responsive about it and refunded a more-than-fair amount of money without us needing to make demands. So, despite some frustration and anxiety, it all worked out great. My one suggestion to El Monte would be to provide enough RV toilet chemical to see the customers through the trip. Its not easy to find when youre visiting national parks, but it is really cheap and could easily be part of the rental fee.

Comment: I had planned a last minute trip request for my 85 year old mom. I had reserved a motor home from another rental agency and on day of pickup they had nothing for me and were really rude about it. I had a friend suggest i try El Monte Rv. I called the 800 reservation number and was assured that I could pick up on the next morning, this was the same thing that had just happened to me with the other company. When I called the next morning they saw the reservation but said they had nothing for me. I do not understand why these companies have 800 numbers to call when they obviously do not have the power to reserve you anything. With that being said and after explaining to a very helpful employee, Madelyn, she made some calls and she managed to get me a motor home for my 5 day trip. Everyone at El Monte Rv was very kind and helpful to help me with my moms birthday wish. We had a great time and its thanks to El Monte Rv . I will only rent from them on any future rental needs

Comment: LONG REVIEW- TL;DR - Customer service didnt feel customer oriented, had problems with RV. But if we *had* to rent from here again, we might. We were comped for some items for inconvenience. Continue for details:We were first-time RV renters. When we first called to ask about rentals, the woman who answered spoke so fast we couldnt even process what she was saying and when we would ask her to clarify, it seemed like we were bothering her. Still, we reserved a rental.Upon being contacted for rental pickup, again - fast speaking woman was the one who called us. She gave us the time we needed to go pick up, but no other information.I had a short list of questions but only got to ask one because as soon as she gave me the answer and I said thank you (for the answer), she ended the call and hung up.I brought my dad along to the rental pick-up so our car could be driven back by someone. The same woman from the calls was the same to service us at the counter. She had us sign off rental info then asked for the authorized drivers to sign the paper. I signed, my dad signed, then I told her that my husband was at work and therefore not present to sign.Then he cant drive. Mind you, we werent told that all drivers would have to be present (again, first time renters so we had no idea what to expect). So that was a wouldve-been-nice-to-know moment.We inspected the RV interior on our own because of COVID guidelines and was shown existing minor exterior bumps and dings that we were not responsible for. Then, we just kind of stood there outside. Finally someone came out to give us the last of our paperwork and we were like, ..so, do we just leave now? We just didnt really feel very well informed on whats supposed to happen and when.Got home with the RV and cleaned the interior myself (not sure if they also clean it, but it still needed some attention). Also, good thing I tested and checked all storage areas because the storage key actually cracked (rusted). That wouldve been a nightmare on the road. So I drove back to the rental place to get a replacement.We learned on our first night out that one of the hoses underneath the RV wasnt properly connected/glued to the drainage (? - I dont know anything about how it worked. I just know our fresh water drainage was leaking everywhere at the RV site and my husband had to do a quick fix to remedy it).Also, electrical outlets in the kitchen and dining area did not work so we were hooking up our small appliances into the bedroom outlets or overhead compartments. For these things, our additional mileage was waived which was I think about $80.When we returned the RV, the fast-speaking woman seemed much nicer than our initial interactions with her. However, while she was nice with us this time, there was a man who came in looking to ask questions about his upcoming rental and she told him repeatedly she didnt have time to answer anything and shed have to call him which, to me, seemed unprofessional because she couldve asked either my family or the man to hang on a bit while she addressed one or the other.Ill add that the rest of the staff (young man and young woman) though nice, seem unknowledgeable. I think if they had the skillset to address some of the concerns then it would make for a smoother process for all parties because the woman seems stressed out and the younger employees seem like they want to help, but cant.

They were the only ones that had open communication with us and responded to our rental request, after contacting other RV rentals companies online and getting no one to respond. The representative was extremely helpful, courteous, and professional! We cant wait to plan our next trip!

Comment: Amazing staff! Very helpful in this global pandemic. I wanted to be self contained during our vacation to Zion National Park. Called El Monte and the girl was very informative and helpful even while keeping distance and a mask on! While on my trip I was confused as to where to hook the water connection to. A simple call to the San Bernardino office and Kailey helped me out and we were back on route to enjoying our campsite! Exceptional service during a global pandemic!

Comment: If I could give 0 stars, I would. We will never again rent from El Monte RV Rentals. They let us rent an RV that needed maintenance. The grey water pipe was broken and caused major leakage. We had to move from our camping space and lost a whole day to repairs. For us, that was upsetting because we didnt have a lot of time off to use for this trip, so every minute counted. Additionally, the hose for dumping the tanks, including the black water tank, was broken and my husband cut himself several times! He had to get a tetanus shot! The best they could do was wave miles and comp a night, but that was only after I had to complain to them multiple times how upsetting this was to us. Definitely going back to Cruise America for our next trip!

Comment: Honestly, I have no idea how this place has business with the worst customer service attitude. Makes you feel like if youre bothering them and in their way. I wasnt able to get the name of the girl at the front desk, but someone needs to retrain her in customer service and how to properly interact with a first time customer. Will not be returning to this place and will rent an RV where my almost retired dad will be treated with respect when all he was asking was questions about RVs, rental process, and how RVs look.

You are are charges for full day that you are not using the RV. Pick up 1 PM frop off 8 am. Rates of online, over the phone and in stores are not the same.

Comment: My wife actually said that our camping trip was relaxing. The RV worked as expected, stove started with a few clicks, AC kicked on in the late afternoon, and the shower was Hot. The best feature was the TV and DVD player in the cab over that worked with out the generator running. Our toddler was so excited to spend his morning and evenings up in his own private area. We look forward to renting again.

Comment: Absolutely the easiest and friendliest RV rental I have ever done! Brianna and Carlos were ssooo nice and went out of their way to make sure we knew everything we needed for a perfect weekend. From explaining how the water heater works to directions to Walmart to stock up, there wasnt a single thing overlooked or lacking. We were delayed for check-in due to heavy traffic and they stayed open late for us! The RV- a 22 motorhome- was great! Everything worked beautifully and the price was way under what we were quoted from other rental companies.If we are ever back in this part of Cali- we travel for music fests, so it is a safe bet we will- we will definitely rent from here again!!!

Comment: We rented our RV for a trip to the National Parks in October 2014. Everyone in the office was so helpful it made our trip complete. We had started the process about 6 months prior to our trip. I had several questions as the trip date got closer and closer. No matter how many times I would call with new questions, the staff was always great to work with. They always made me feel as if I was the only customer they had and took time to answer all of my questions. The RV that we rented was excellent and our first RV experience was one that we will always remember. We are currently thinking of renting another RV, a smaller one, for our next vacation, and we would never consider working with any other company. We live about 200 miles away from the rental center, but getting the El Monte RV Rentals & Sales great service, is well worth the drive. The staff was very easy to work with and on the day we picked up the RV, they made it so simple and quick that before you knew it, we were on the road to a new adventure. We would never consider any other company to work with for our RV rental needs.

Comment: This Rental that I recently did was much easier than originally thought. The folks at El Monte RV in San Berdo were very accommodating. This was my first time and my Wife and I had a Blast. The unit was very Clean and New and we both were very happy that we decided to do this. It changed are usual Camping Big Time and turned it in to what we called GLAMPING!Glamorous Camping! I highly recommend renting from El Monte RV and will be doing this again soon.Thank You from a Happy Camper

Comment: This was the first year we rented with El Monte. We rented an RV last year with Cruise America and that RV was very difficult to control on the road. The front end was all over the place. The RV from El Monte drove really smooth and had the power to get up large hills. The staff was great very friendly. We wil be back next year.

Comment: I am very unhappy with El Monte RV. I made a four day reservation and needed to change it to three days. I was told the rate would not be reduced due to minimum day policy. I found no such language in their terms and conditions.

Comment: I recently rented with El Monte RV and it was a great experience from first call to when I returned the RV. I rented out of San Bernardino and everything exceeded my expectations. Felicia helped answer some questions when I first called, then when I arrived to rent the RV she was quick and informative with all the paperwork and showing me and my wife how to use the RV. When we got in the RV it was almost brand new, the interior and exterior was clean, the bathroom was clean, it was perfect. Will definitely be renting for all our trips now. Thanks!

Comment: My family had rented from El monte in the past and on more than one occasion they had issues with the rvs. My wife and i rented the class a and we would give el monte a try to see if they had improved since that was years ago. I believe the trip was jinxed from the beginning. The day we were supposed to leave for a relaxing vacation we woke up to dead house batteries so we spent half of the first day (which we should have been credited for) of our vacation repairing their motorhome. The batteries are obviously not being checked they had water stains on them which tells me the water boiled off and nobody checks them which allows the batteries to become unable to hold a charge. El monte did credit us for the battery work but we lost the time we spent on replacing the batteries. I accept responsibility for the awning that was destroyed that was my fault ( since these are rentals you would think they would have a safety feature that would not allow the vehicle to be put in gear if the awning is extended). Finally the glass cover for the stove shattered while we were parked and there was no heat coming from the stove. We were also charged $250 for that. Also the entire dashboard is very cheaply built and not secured it rattles so much it seemed it will fall off while driving. We wont be going back to el monte. Fixing their rvs so that they can make money is not my idea of a vacation.
