I usually take in Hertz, since if you take they have a car for a period of 5 days, then it can be returned elsewhere free of charge (other companies charge a commission for this). And just on This site is convenient to compare what will be cheaper, pay this commission, or not to pay, because the price per day for all companies is different.
