Will I face unexpected charges at the Enterprise counter in Dayton when I book through Hola Car Rentals?
No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Enterprise booking in Dayton are clearly shown at the time of reservation and in your confirmation email, so you know exactly what you are paying before you arrive at the Enterprise counter.
On top of that, every Hola Car Rentals booking includes the No Extra Charges© guarantee. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the Enterprise counter in Dayton charges you for something that was not listed on your confirmation and was not an optional add-on you accepted. If that happens, Hola Car Rentals will work with Enterprise to remove or reimburse the charge after verification.
The only costs outside this guarantee are:
- Optional add-ons you choose at the counter (GPS, child seats, prepaid fuel)
- Usage-based charges (tolls, fuel shortfall, traffic fines)
How do I pick up my Enterprise rental car at Dayton International Airport?
At Dayton International Airport (DAY), the Enterprise counter is located on the first floor of the Rental Car Facility at 3600 Terminal Rd, Vandalia, OH 45377, directly across from baggage claim. No shuttle or tram is needed since the facility is within walking distance of the terminal.
After collecting your bags, follow the signs for car rentals to the first floor of the Rental Car Facility, then proceed to the Enterprise counter to present your documents, sign the rental agreement, and collect your keys. Allow roughly 15 to 30 minutes from baggage claim depending on queue length.
The Enterprise counter at Dayton International Airport is open 7:00 AM to 11:30 PM Sunday through Friday, and 7:00 AM to 11:59 PM on Saturdays. If your flight arrives close to closing time, plan accordingly, as after-hours pickup options are not specified for this location.
What are the hours for the Enterprise downtown Dayton location?
The Enterprise location at 500 N Main St, Dayton, OH 45405 operates on a shorter schedule than the airport counter.
- Monday through Friday: 7:30 AM to 5:30 PM
- Saturday: 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM
- Sunday: closed
After-hours returns are not available at this downtown Dayton Enterprise location, so plan your drop-off accordingly. If you need to return the vehicle outside these hours, consider whether the airport Enterprise location at Dayton International Airport better suits your schedule, as it operates until late evening daily.
Arriving at the downtown Dayton Enterprise counter requires your own transport, as no shuttle service is specified for this address. Bring all required documents, including your driver's license and a physical major credit card in the main driver's name.
Are there toll roads near Dayton that I should know about when renting from Enterprise?
Yes, toll roads are relevant if you plan to drive beyond the Dayton area during your Enterprise rental. The main toll route in Ohio is the Ohio Turnpike (I-76, I-80, I-90), a 241-mile east-west highway connecting the Indiana and Pennsylvania borders and passing near Toledo, Cleveland, and Akron.
The Ohio Turnpike uses a mixed system: E-ZPass for electronic payment and cash or credit card at staffed plazas. Typical 2026 passenger vehicle rates for the full route are approximately US$19 with E-ZPass or US$27.75 with cash or credit card.
Your Enterprise rental vehicle will not have a personal E-ZPass transponder, but Enterprise offers a TollPass program. If you enroll, you pay a daily fee (approximately US$4.95 per day, capped at around US$34.65 per rental) plus the actual toll charges. If you do not enroll and drive through a toll, Enterprise will bill the toll amount plus administrative fees to your card after the rental ends.
Ohio has no congestion charges or emissions zones, so no additional city-center driving fees apply in Dayton itself.
Can I get cashback on tolls paid during my Enterprise rental in Dayton?
Yes, all Hola Car Rentals bookings include Tolls Cashback, which lets you recover up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your Enterprise rental in Dayton or on any Ohio roads you travel.
This is especially useful if your Dayton itinerary takes you onto the Ohio Turnpike (I-76, I-80, I-90), where tolls for a full crossing can reach US$27.75 for cash or credit card payments.
To claim your cashback after returning your Enterprise vehicle:
- Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return
- Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number
- Attach your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the Enterprise rental agreement, and a receipt or statement showing the toll charges paid
Refunds are issued to the original payment method used for your booking and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions received after 30 days are not accepted.
What documents do I need to pick up my Enterprise rental car in Dayton?
When collecting your Enterprise rental in Dayton, you must present all documents in physical form. Digital copies are not accepted at the counter.
- A valid, original driver's license in the main driver's name
- A physical major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, used for the security deposit hold
- A passport or valid government-issued photo ID
- Your booking confirmation or printed voucher
- Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad
If your driver's license is not in English and does not use a Latin (Roman) alphabet, such as Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script, an International Driving Permit (IDP) is required alongside your original license. For licenses in English or using a Latin alphabet, an IDP is recommended but not mandatory.
The IDP is a translation document only and cannot be used without your original license. Obtain it in your home country before traveling, as it cannot be issued to non-US license holders in the United States. The Enterprise counter in Dayton will apply these same document standards at both the airport and downtown locations.
Is a credit card required to rent from Enterprise in Dayton?
Yes, a physical major credit card in the main driver's name with the driver's name printed on the card is required at every Enterprise location in Dayton, including the airport counter at Dayton International Airport and the downtown location on N Main St.
The credit card is used to place a temporary security hold, not a charge, on your available credit. Typical holds for standard vehicles in the United States range from approximately US$300 to US$400, though the exact amount is set by Enterprise at the counter and may vary by vehicle class or rental duration.
- Debit cards and prepaid cards are not accepted for the security deposit hold
- Virtual or single-use card numbers are not accepted; you must present the physical card
- The card must belong to the main driver, not a third party
Even if you prepaid your booking in full, you must still present a physical credit card at the Enterprise counter in Dayton. The hold is released after you return the vehicle, but your bank may take up to 15 business days to reflect the release on your statement.
Are there unusual road layouts in Dayton I should know about before driving my Enterprise rental?
Yes, Dayton has several road features that can catch first-time visitors off guard when driving an Enterprise rental.
- Downtown Dayton is converting several streets from one-way to two-way traffic, including West First Street, Monument Avenue, and N St. Clair Streets. These conversions can create mid-corridor direction switches that are confusing even with GPS navigation.
- The I-75 interchange known locally as Malfunction Junction features side-by-side three-lane roadways over the Great Miami River with tight, rebuilt interchanges at multiple exits.
- The I-75 and SR-725 interchange near Dayton Mall uses a diverging diamond interchange (DDI), where drivers briefly cross to the opposite side of the road over a bridge. This is a non-standard layout designed to reduce left-turn conflicts, but it requires careful attention to signage and lane markings.
- North Main Street narrows from four lanes to two through lanes plus a center turn lane in some sections, with added bike paths alongside.
Allow extra time when navigating downtown Dayton in your Enterprise vehicle, and follow GPS prompts carefully through these reconstructed corridors.
Can I add an additional driver to my Enterprise rental in Dayton?
Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Enterprise rental in Dayton, but the rules and fees depend on the location and your relationship to the additional driver.
At the downtown Dayton Enterprise location (500 N Main St), a spouse or domestic partner who meets age and license requirements can be added as an authorized driver at no extra charge. Any other additional driver incurs a fee of US$15 per day plus applicable taxes.
At the Enterprise Exotics location near Dayton International Airport (3600 Terminal Dr), no additional drivers beyond a spouse or domestic partner are permitted.
- The additional driver must be present at the Enterprise counter in Dayton at the time of pickup
- They must present a valid driver's license and any required IDP
- Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement
- Only drivers listed on the agreement are covered by the rental protections
Check your booking confirmation to see whether an additional driver is already included in your rate. If the confirmation shows the additional driver as included, no counter fee should apply.
What travel assistance is included with my Enterprise booking in Dayton?
Most Hola Car Rentals bookings include travel assistance coverage provided by Terrawind Global Protection, which can be valuable if you experience a medical emergency or other travel disruption during your Enterprise rental in Dayton or while driving through Ohio.
Core benefits typically include:
- Travel and medical insurance coverage for up to 5 passengers
- Legal assistance in the event of a road accident
- Compensation for baggage lost by the airline
- Flight cancellation insurance
If you need assistance, contact Terrawind 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Call +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free) or reach them via WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001, or email [email protected]. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.
Important: this travel assistance benefit does not apply to customers who are residents of the United States or Canada. It also does not cover damage to the Enterprise rental vehicle itself (that is handled by CDW/LDW) or third-party liability (covered by LIS/SLI). Always review your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your reservation.
What is the minimum age to rent from Enterprise in Dayton?
The minimum age to rent from Enterprise in Dayton without a young-renter surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but will be charged an additional daily underage fee at the Enterprise counter.
For Enterprise rentals in Dayton, the underage fee is approximately US$15 per day plus applicable taxes. This fee is paid at the counter and is not included in your prepaid rate.
- Drivers under 25 are also restricted from renting certain vehicle classes, including full-size, SUV, premium, luxury, minivan, and convertible categories
- Economy, compact, and intermediate vehicles are generally available to drivers aged 21 to 24
- Drivers must still present a valid license and a physical major credit card in their own name
Ohio is not one of the states (such as New York or Michigan) that legally requires rental companies to serve drivers under 21, so the minimum age at Dayton Enterprise locations is 21 for young renters and 25 for surcharge-free rentals. If you are unsure whether your age or vehicle class selection qualifies, confirm before arriving at the Dayton counter.
What fuel policy applies to Enterprise rentals in Dayton?
Enterprise rentals in Dayton follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.
- At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the Enterprise agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement
- Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge before leaving the Dayton counter
- Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the gauge does not drop before you arrive
- Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address
If you return the Enterprise vehicle in Dayton with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the retail pump price, plus a refueling service fee.
If the vehicle was not full at pickup, the starting level must be noted on the agreement and you only need to return it at that same level. Always verify what is written on the contract before driving away from the Dayton Enterprise location.
Can I pick up my Enterprise car in Dayton and return it to a different city?
Yes, one-way rentals are possible with Enterprise, allowing you to pick up in Dayton and return the vehicle to a different location, but a drop-off fee may apply depending on the route.
The drop-off fee is route-specific and varies by destination, vehicle class, and season. It is not included in your prepaid rate and must be paid at the Enterprise counter in Dayton or at the return location.
- Same-city routes, such as Dayton International Airport to the downtown Dayton Enterprise location, often carry no drop-off fee
- Routes between different cities or states typically incur a one-way fee
- Cross-country or remote routes may carry higher fees or may not be permitted depending on Enterprise's policies for that route
When booking, the Hola Car Rentals checkout will display any applicable drop-off fee under the section labeled as charges due at the destination. Review your booking confirmation to verify the fee before arriving at the Dayton Enterprise counter. If the counter charges a different amount than shown on your confirmation, keep all paperwork and contact support after the rental ends.
What insurance coverage is included with my Enterprise rental in Dayton?
The insurance and protection options included with your Enterprise rental in Dayton depend on the rate plan selected at booking. Review your Hola Car Rentals confirmation to confirm exactly what is covered.
Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW) reduces your financial liability for damage to the Enterprise vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation explicitly states zero deductible. CDW and LDW do not cover damage to other vehicles or injuries to other people.
Third-Party Liability (LIS/SLI) covers bodily injury and property damage you may cause to others while driving the Enterprise rental in Dayton or elsewhere in Ohio. Some U.S. states require a minimum level of liability coverage, but not all do. Adding supplemental liability coverage up to US$300,000 is strongly recommended.
- CDW/LDW covers the rental vehicle only
- LIS/SLI covers third parties, not the rental vehicle
- Personal injuries to you or your passengers require separate Personal Accident Insurance (PAI)
- Personal belongings require Personal Effects Coverage (PEC)
All named drivers on the Enterprise agreement in Dayton must be listed for coverage to apply. Unlisted drivers are not covered.
