Super hard to find. When we did find it, they told us that they had received our reservation but had no cars. They said they didn’t alert me because I hadn’t left my cell phone, but I had. Extremely disappointing.One location in Zihuatanejo

The staff did not have a car for me and then all of the sudden they found a car that was below what i paid for and smelled pretty bad. I was quoted 30$ for 9 days which seemed really low but then that was the cost was the coat for only 1 day. I went to drop off the can at the exact time i had planned and there was no one at the office. I called they number on the paperwork and the person who answered did not speak any english and told me in spanish to meet him at the aitport where they dont have an office or desk. He was 15 minites late and luckily my flight was delayed so everything worked out. DONT USE GREEN MOTION IN ZIHUATANEJO8.0 Very good

Pros:
The staff was very friendly and flexible on pickup and drop off times.Cons:
We chose this group because of listed price. What was buried in the fine print was a requirement to purchase liability insurance that costed more than the rental itself. It was misleading to show the base price only—we would have gone with a different group had we known. If this is standard, then the listing should show that additional insurance fees may apply, and point the consumer directly to the added costs. It was misleading to be so obscure and hidden.One location in Zihuatanejo
