I booked my car from USA when I went there the personal told me that they don’t have Jeep and said his friend will take care of me I don’t speak Spanish and I needed up with Firefly by Herrz as it seems like that there is guy at airport who get commission from rental car company and other rental car companies employees give him business I needed up paying 140 more because budget can’t keep their part of bargain I will never use third party site and budget ever again

The Alamo agent stated he had no automatic cars available & we were fine with taking a manual vehicle. The agent kept saying no no…my friend will give you a bigger car for less money & insurance coverage. We were then brought to His friend at MEX rental car. When the Amex agent walked us towards the shuttle to pick up our rental car, he pulled us to the side & extorted a “tip” out of us for giving us a better deal. The car we got was filthy inside & out & not a typical Alamo standard type vehicle. The seats were covered in dirt like someone was sweating all over the seats & all the dirt they had on them had sweat right onto the interior. And, to top it all off, the wiper fluid was empty & the wipers were useless…they really needed to be changed out, even if the vehicle had washer fluid in it. Needless to say, even though we ultimately were not allowed to rent from Alamo, our experience was not one I’d like to repeat.

I rented a VW Jetta and the car was in perfect conditions and sanitized for the Covid 19.

I don´t appreciate being pushed for insurance. When booking in Kayak, every time I would like information about insurance options. I don´t like going to the car rental counter and having to argue under pressure with the rental company representative.

When I got there they tried to rip me with the cost for insurance. I walked out and did not rent the car. It was the worst car rental experience I have ever had in 31 years renting a car in Cancun.

The car itself was fine.

Totally ripped me off. The Kayak shown price was $21 for the weekend, INCLUDING taxes. That’s why I chose this reservation—even though it was a dinky little car, that was a fantastic sale price. When I arrived, there was mandatory insurance, a different rate, new taxes, and mandatory prepaid tank of gas, all resulting in a price of $175 for the weekend—almost 9 times more than I had planned to pay. By the time I was there it was too late to change to another company... no need to spend more hours of an already short weekend getaway shopping for rental cars. But this was totally deceptive and I’m very unhappy. Kayak should not be listing Alamo’s deceptive prices in the future.

It felt like they scammed me with a rental that went from $124CAD to $376. I only included liability insurance and 2 carseats for 2 days what I was quoted ahead of time by Dollar, $238 plus $60 total for the seats. But they don't tell you on the website that there is a 29.5% fees added to that(I assumed maybe 10%), the car seats were out of date, and we never got the car we wanted. We got a beat up Suzuki instead of a Jeep. The problem is after a long flight with 2 small kids and a 2 hr line up at the rental, you'll sign anything to get going.

The price shown when I made the reservation wasn't the one I had once I got there. They charged me a "mandatory" insurance although I already had one with my credit card. It doubled the original price. I won't come back anymore, really poor experience. Also, it was impossible to find the counter, there was no one there at first. Hopefully a lady helped me and said that Hertz and Dollar are basically the same.

Honestly, I didn't know renting an SUV would cost about 1200 upfront 400 would come back to me but I didn't account for that cost so we went with the full-size car for 500 with 150 coming back all this to say read your rental agreement it doesn't say anything about insurance which feels like a rip-off but you must have it so when your planning just account for this charge to be $90/$75/$55

The car was ready when we got there and we didn’t have to wait long.

They price ended up doubling when we got there. Instead of paying the rate we were promised on Kayak they had many fees added on like a 20% airport fee that were not expected. The car rental concierge also tried to force me to purchase a $2,500 protection plan, I was arguing that the card on file wouldn’t allow that size of transactions and it wouldn’t work but he insisted. Finally he told me I could get full coverage for the car for 30% of the total price.

Good value

The pick-up process was a nightmare. The staff was aggressively pushing the insurance and was trying to sell us things, which was annoying and prolonged the process.

Staff was friendly, location was convenient

The car was hard to argue that it was in the same class as what was represented, they do not honor the insurance that I purchased with kayak, and required the entire rental amount, plus 30% to have full coverage, otherwise and coverage under 100% requires very high deposits, up to $5000+ depending on what you rented.

When we checked in to pick up our car, they never told us they did not have a full size car available for us. Instead of upgrading us or informing us, we waited for about 30 minutes for our car to show up then told us after we asked about it that they didn’t have it. They still didn’t upgrade us at this point. Eventually a full size car pulled in, still wet from being washed and only a half tank of gas. The insurance also doubles the rental price.

Hi, Haven’t a car at the airport. The price has more than doubled, it was a joke. We took a taxi and we pass by the agency of our hotel to rent a car for our journey. I sent email about my angriness and for the cancellation but haven t received any follow up, so client service was not good. If any payment is requested I will block it. thanks Kr Mathieu

Made a reservation 30dec morning for $286 from 30dec to 2jan for a budget car. When I came they increase my price to ~$500 + 800$ deposit. I tried to send a message to company - no results, just lost 2 hours of my short vacations. ACE works thru MEX rental company in Cancun airport. Never ever will book with them again. Go out and find a car from small local car rental office for $350 for 4 days.

They charge you more money at the counter so you end up paying more than great reputable companies with much better cars. Terrible service. Stayed in Line for pick up for an hour. I will never use this company again!
