The car was very good. However the price was a trap because of the insurance scam. The rental company does not recognise prepaid insurance or credit card insurance. They only recognise their own compulsory insurance which effectively doubled the price of the car rental.. To be fair, their compulsory double pay insurance scam should be notified up front, not hidden.

I was suppose to pay $65 at counter at pickup. They had no record of the 77 dollars I already paid with you! And told me that KAYAK was a scam and I shouldn’t have bought insurance at time of booking with kayak. I ended up paying 295 dollars for rental w their insurance when initial agreement was 165 for rental an insurance when I booked with You Kayak. Also they held 450 of my money. The car they brought me was beat up and not even road worthy. Had to wait for another car. Then spent the majority of my vacation trying to get a hold of KSYAK CUDTOMER SERVICE TO FINF OUT DHI TOOK MY 77 dollars. Still do not no where this money went. Fast forward when time to drop off no one was there to receive car at 530am as agreed and had to leave key under the mat . Very very very bad experience with budget and KAYAK

This office was good, but the website gave an incorrect price, which was not super cool. Nothing wrong with the particular office, just the whole website.

They didn’t have the vehicle I requested available. So I was given a microbus. However that required a special insurance, I was charged $90 extra. This is on top of an insurance we had already purchased, but no problem extra insurance wouldn’t hurt. They also put a $900 hold on the account, that they would return 7-10 days after drop off. That was all the money we had for this trip. I was never told about this $900 hold or we would have gone a different route as far as renting a car.
They force you to buy insurances you dont really need,they double their profits by doing this,it should be outlawed

Avis en El Salvador cobran una aseguranza más cara de lo que acá te dicen. No renten atraves de esta plataforma o simplemente no renten con Avis en El Salvador. Ya que cuando llegas con ellos te dicen que tienen la reservación pero que hay un problema que no agregaste aseguranza, cuando esta plataforma te dice que no necesitas. Y si agregan aseguranza atraves de esta plataforma allá allá no te aceptan, entonces estás obligado a tomar una seguranza que doblega el precio de lo que te dicen aquí. Me aumentaron 200 dólares más de lo acordado. Y te obligan y viéndote en la situación que estás y no a viendo de otra te toca pagarlo. Pero son unos sin vergüenzas que juegan con los precios y te tratan mal y te humillan con su actitud prepotente. Dicen que son confiables cuando te estafan con aseguranza mas innecesarias. No renten con ninguna compañía la del aeropuerto. Son unos sin vergüenzas. No renten con ninguna agencia de El Salvador atravesar de ata plataforma. Da vergüenza que aquí te digan una cosa y allá te salgan con otra.

When I picked up the vehicle, the car was very unsafe. I was charged an extra $271 when arrived in order to be able to have a rental. She stated it was mandatory to pay this amount for an insurance. She did not explain why when asked. She was very rude. I explained to her that I had already purchased an insurance online through Kayak when booking my reservation. She did not care and demanded I pay the amount or else I would not be able to get a rental. The doors where all broken with the seal to the doors loose not being able to close. We had hold the doors with our hands otherwise they would flip open. The handles where broken as well. The door handles where wrapped with tape broken. The car was very old and broken down. Very dirty and the windows would not roll all the way up. I experienced myself along with my family and items getting wet from broken windows. The agent at the registration told me to take the vehicle downtown to where they repair vehicles if i was unsatisfied with the vehicle. That is very unprofessional of Avis. I am not familiar with El salvador which is an international country for this agency to be sending me to go repair a car that should already be inspected and safe to rent. I am very disappointed and would like to dispute my reservation amount and speak to a supeerviso. When i tried to return the vehicle early, they denied me. They stated i MUST complete the full reservation. I will never book with Avis again. They need to be investigated for being fraudulent.

It was terrible, at the time to pick the car, the lady wnet up wit the price. The insurance She was giving me, was the same as the rent of the car. I understand that we are going from USA and they think we have a lot of money, that why they try to rise the prices at the momento to pick the car. I rejected theirs price and rented better and cheaper car with CAR EXPPRESS. So AVIS, DON’T treat the customer with that kind the price. You are renting the cars more expensive that here in California.

Made reservations online for a sedan and pick up at a certain time. When I got there (paid Uber), the man at the counter (Supervisor) said he did not have a vehicle for me. He may get one in the next 45 minutes. But, after that, he needed to perform maintenance on the vehicle and would take an extra 2 hours. I asked the guy if he was going to pay for Uber rides to and fro, he said he was not allowed to do that. I had to change all my reservations (hotel), cancel another hotel reservation because I didn't have a car to get there. Awful experience from Avis in San Salvador.

It was a night mare; They didn’t care about the reservation and they don’t have any car available. After two hours they gave us a car, the car was extremely low. The worst part was; they told us the issurance we got with you doesn’t count with them and we had to get another their insurance. We have to pay more money than what we supposed to pay. The front desk lady was nice; but I got screwed with the money
The Salvadoran mandatory private liability insurance of 14.99$/day needs to be shown in the booking price, our rental price more than doubled because of it!

They did no have the SUV as I indicated. I made the reservation months ago. When I went to the pick up center I had to wait ½ an hour. The car itself was ok. There were a lot of dents and scratches and the underside had something that was hanging off. It was being held by a piece of rope.

The staff was incredibly friendly and answered all our questions. They helped us with our luggage and the transaction couldn't have gone more smoothly. They accommodated our early flight schedule and had staff waiting for us to drop off the vehicle.

They charged me $1,000 over the price I agreed to. They did not send me a receipt or explanation for this extra charge.
Ended up being a lot more money than what we booked for online. I was told I could use another form of payment at check out but that was not the case.

All the staff at Alamo International Airport in El Salvador was amazing. From Maria at the airport's counter to the drivers that shuttled us to and from the car pick up spot. Car was available, on time, clean. They were all very helpful and went the extra mile to answer all our questions. I will definitely use their service again whenever I need them there. Good job!!

We couldn't get our rental at all...the person/s that were supposed to be minding this business at the hotel where the pick-up was supposed to take place (hotel Tropico Inn in San Miguel) wasn't even present, not even after setting up a second appointment. a total disgrace for the Alamo company...
