This was a complete bait and switch!! I reserved a Intermediate SUV that would carry 5 adults and 4 pieces of luggage. On arrival, I was told that my reservation was only for a SUV that would hold 5 adults but only 2 pieces of luggage!! That does not work for a 2 week holiday. The only solution was paying an extra $45 per day to get the next size SUV which they called Standard but it only held 5 adults and the 4 pieces of luggage!! To make matters worse, I have written Alamo to ask for clarification and refund but they have not responded to my email!!!

I prepaid $700 for my rental car on line understanding that I would have a pay for insurance. Estimates from my guidebook indicated that it would be $10-$30 per day for a 9 day trip. When I arrived I was charged $825 or $90 per day for insurance alone. I had prepaid so I couldn’t change car companies and felt cheated. I was told I should have read the fine print. If that is the policy, it should be made very clear the the cost of insurance will exceed the cost of the rental.

Wouldn’t accept my credit card insurance coverage without a written letter—which is not a legal requirement but something they do so they can sell you their insurance. It was labeled as “on site” at airport. It was not. The car was pretty beat to hell.

I would avoid. Nice people but terribly disorganized. We paid for an SUV but when we arrived they said they didn't have any. Didn't really offer a solution (said we could just wait a few hours for an SUV but they are unsure if one will come) so we took a sedan. This car then broke down on us (but thankfully they were quick to fix it). They also ended up making us pay for insurance as they didn't accept my credit card's insurance.

It was not just poor, it was terrible. They had no cars, they asked me to pay more than $700 for a car, rather than the $203 quoted - that's an unbelievable amount for the expected extras. A dirty car was returned while we did the paperwork which they said we could have. Then they took it away and said it had brake problems. We waited into the night as they said another car was on the way. They couldn't tell us when it would arrive. After a couple of hours we told them to cancel and walked to a local hotel. We got a shuttle to our destination the next morning. AVOID, AVOID!

This was listed as a rental provider that has his office in the terminal....which they had. But it was only a "fake" office because we then still had to take a shuttle ride to the rental office, which increased pickup and drop off time. More importantly, the up-selling of insurance products was very annoying. The initial quote at the counter was twice (!) as high as the listed price on Kayak and it required a lengthy call to my credit card company until they believed me that I don't want/need to buy the Loss/Damage waiver. I also had to explicitly ask for the government mandatory liability insurance only and not the 100% liability coverage which I was automatically offered. At the end I still had to pay a ~55% higher price than I had expected from the Kayak booking. Every client before us had to go through that lengthy and painful negotiation and that made the pickup process very long because the line was moving very slowly. The car itself was perfect and the return process was quick and easy.
