The staff were helpful and the rental vehicle was fine, a lot of miles on the car, but it drove well. My only surprise was the cost. I was quoted $187 for 4 days rental, but in the end, it cost over $330 with a lot of extra charges not included in the quoted price, including mandatory insurance of $20 per day and all sorts of taxes and fees. I would have preferred they included all of the expenses up front so I wouldn't have gotten sticker shock. El personal era amable y el vehiculo bien, llevaba muchas millas de uso, pero se conducia bien. Mi unica decepcion fue el coste. Me dieron un precio de 187 USD por 4 dias de alquilar, pero al final pague mas de 330 USD gracias a tarifas, impuestos y seguro de auto supuestamente obligatorio. Me hubiera preferido que me indicaran el precio total al principio para ahorrarme el susto.

Ended up not renting the vehicle. When we went to the counter, we were told the insurance (full coverage) Kayak/Expedia included in the fee was not valid, and a separate fee was required to cover driving in Mexico. This added significantly to the cost, almost doubling it. They suggested we rent the car and get our money back from Kayak/Expedia. We declined to rent the car. Not sure where the issue is, and which side is right or wrong. We decided to take Uber for all transportation.
