To avoid any confusion or potential accidents, it's important to pay close attention to the direction of traffic and any signage indicating which lanes are for turning or going straight.

William, Jun 2021

Pros:

Staff was excellent. Very courteous and professional

Cons:

Time at drop off was a little long and no indication of drop off point. I had no idea where to drop the car off and ended up asking a guard and he told me to park it in the handicap space and go inside. The return review was done while I was waiting in the office. The car was returned in the condition it was rented but I feel I should have been present in case there were any problems

After my first day with the car I had to return it for another one, the air conditioning did not work well, with the high temperatures in Honduras the AC is important, my second car had problems with the brakes, they made a lot of noise when braking but the AC worked well so I decided to keep the car for the rest of the 7 days. The customer service is very good, the people who work there do their best to serve the customers.
