Car had plenty of trunk space but car itself was smaller than expected, tiny wheels which was a challenge with speed bumps in the area. Paid more than quoted due to conversion from MXD to USD. Almost wish quote was in MXD. Time at the counter to complete rental was longer than most places.

Customer service was Good and helpful that’s for sure. The Car alarm system shut the car off on Saturday at 10 am and we didn’t get a replacement till Sunday around noon or after. Apparently some system malfunction from satellite security. They accommodated by taking two days off from car rental and allowed me to return gas at half a tank. However, it did effect our vacation plans for those two days as I had to make other arrangements to travel. Luckily for me I was able to leave the vehicle in a safe spot and move the car into an area that it didn’t affect the home owners. It affected my Family Plans and Traveling trips for those Days. I didn’t want to complain to that specific dealer as I knew they couldn’t do much else for me. However I expect AVIS or Kayak to do right by making this right.

When I arrived at the Tulum Airport, there was another 600$ USD to pay for assurance and another 2500$ USD of deposit. I reserved a SUV and they gave me a little car cause the SUV was already rented and there was no more in the parking. I'm really not satisfied and it was the las time I rent a car here.

The service rep was extremely unpleasant and try to charge $2408.25 in American dollars. He did not state the price of the insurance cost. I assumed it was going to be inexpensive. I decided not to rent the car if I had to pay that much which is extremely expensive. I am disappointed and dissatisfied and highly concern with how they do business. I would not recommend any one to rent from them.

The pick up was bad. The gentleman wasn’t there on the premises. We called and he said he would be there in 5 minutes. He took almost an hour to arrive and the temperature outside his office was extremely hot. We kept calling and he just lied his way till he arrived with a beat up Nissan xtrail when I had requested a vw suv according to the reservation. Car had dents and front bumper was loose. I wasn’t very convinced since I was returning car to another location. The drop off was nice and friendly tho. They didn’t give me the issues I was dreading of having returning the car in bad shape. Overall I would rather stick to a better rental company than this one next time I travel to Cabo.

Cars are very dirty, dented, cracked head and tail lights. Tires are as bald as can be. One of the cars we were offered had zip ties holding the hub cap to the rim. We ended up canceling since all the cars available were in poor condition unsafe to drive. We felt if we took one of the offered cars it would brake down, cause an accident to ourselves or others. Poor unsafe condition. Cancelled on the spot never took possession of any car at the lot. Unsafe vehicles , Budget should be ashamed of the vehicles it offers as rentals at this location.

Reserved a Tiguan, which was not available when we arrived so they gave us a wreck instead, literally massive dents, scratches and barely drivable. I wish I could attach the pictures. Brakes did not work except on a significant lag and with heavy pressure applied to the pedal. But they were happy to charge full fee and insurance for a car 10x the value of this junker. Tried to talk to a manager but was never available on pick up, by phone, or drop off.

Our flight was delayed in landing and by the time we made it to the check in desk at hertz our car was no longer held. I was informed that the policy was for hertz to hold it only 60 minutes after the my check in time. We had 6 passenger so we need at least that many seat belt. A vehicle was eventually found for us but not until I was up sold over $600 at the counter. I’m not sure why we bothered to hav a reservation to only be gauged and delayed. Thankfully our 3 year old’s iPad’s battery didn’t die.

Terrible experience. They did not have the car we had booked for our reservation. I had originally booked a standard SUV for 300 American dollars. They only had a Jeep and a compact car, we definitely would had not fit our 4 ppl and all our luggage in the compact car. Asked for the price of the Jeep and they were trying to charge us 1700 American dollars. I know it’s never the price they actually quote you for but come on now, that’s more that 5 times what we were quoted for the SUV. What a joke! Did not give them our business and definitely never will when we go back.

You should advertise how much is the amount you freeze on people’s credit card in order to trick/scam them into either take YOUR insurance or to keep the rental payment incase we don’t want to stay with your rental service due to the lack of information provided ahead. I mean we know that’s your tactic but it very sneaky and unprofessional and nope not recommending your company. How is it normal that if we take the insurance through Kayak you still force people to give a credit card deposit of 13k USD , wth is that. And kayak too should let their customers know what to expect once at destination. Definitely not going through you next time and will go to the others who are more straight forward.

Upon arrival at Eurocar, I was subjected to aggressive sales tactics, pressuring me into purchasing an unnecessary protection plan priced at $500. Despite my knowledge of Mexico's insurance requirements, Eurocar staff persisted, eventually lowering the cost to $300. This deceptive behavior is deeply concerning and tarnishes my perception of your service. I demand a cancellation of my reservation and a full refund. I expect swift action to address this issue and prevent its recurrence.
