They opened on a Saturday right on time and handled the check-out efficiently, as well as friendly. The return was just as easy. I was briefed on key features of the car as well. The size was perfect.

The car operated well, with no problems on all sorts of roads, but could have been more fuel efficient. I missed some of the comfort extras, like better seats and cruise control, which are often offered in this same class of car, but perhaps not in Uruguay.

Didn't like much other than the price.

Thought I was getting a deal for the CSR and the money, but then they pulled up for me a Renault Logan, and had an Avis sticker on it vs Budget. That said it was as basic a car as I have seen in a long time. The price was cheap given the week and peak demand. But, it was in poor condition, barely made it up hills, had a notchy clutch, no windshield wiper fluid, and the trunk seal came off upon trying to remove my first piece of luggage. Rental was around 360 for 8-9 days which was quite good, as I was not willing to pay 12-1500+ for a few other rentals, but I would gladly have paid 2-300 more for something better....but was told there were no other options. In general, worst car rental and experience I have ever had

We showed up, had our confirmation information, and they had no word of the reservation. They made us pay a higher price and wait around for about 2 hours until they could find a car, clean it, and rent it to us.

Our rental car got towed due to confusion with the language. Dollar sent an employee to the tow lot to assist us. We didn’t have enough local currency and the employee paid for us to get the car back. We then reimbursed him. Dollar really went above and beyond. 5 stars!!

Car was ok

They didn’t honor the fare I had reserved, saying because i didn’t chose any insurance, i had to leave a $3000 deductible, which was insane so I ended up paying an insurance. Very bad experience

I hired a golf or similar. Arriving at the car rental I was warned that they do not work with golf or similar and that the website kayak was responsible for the incorrect information. I was provided a nissan versa, car much cheaper than golf.

They had no car left and I was charged car insurance from a separate company regardless on my visa! Was with my two daughters stuck at the airport waiting to get in contact with someone from thrifty and when we did we were told it was never confirmed! Be careful when ordering theses things online! Never again will I use Kayak!

nothing!! I did not rent it because my credit card was to new for them!! They also required to hold of $1,600.00 in case of something happened to the card when other companies required just $ 800.00 for better cards. Their office is located outside the airport they give you a ride to take the car but this take extra time. THEY NEED TO UPDATE THEIR SISTEM TO WORK WITH CREDIT CARDS.
