I had rented a car previously in Costa Rica and was able to wave the added protection as I am covered through other insurance and credit cards at national they would not let me so add an additional $15 a day to the priceReviewed May 27 2023

Depois de esperar uma hora para pegar o carro a pessoa que estava me “ajudando” olhou e disse que não foi possível autorizar. Meus documentos são todos americanos pq vivo lá há mais de duas décadas. E ela não sabia o que fazer. Enfim, só havia feito à reserva pá a Localiza só tinha carro para depois de meio dia. Acabei que loquei com a Localiza e não tem comparação de profissionalismo.Reviewed May 21 2023

I was told that my reservation was not ready until 1 1/2 hour after I arrived at pick up point. When the time for car was to be ready I was told that the vehicle specified in my rental agreement was not available but they had a better car but they wanted a lot more money for it, as much as 200 dollars. I refused and showed my original quote and after a lot of haggling they gave me the better model for about $150 more than my quote. With HERTZ this has never happened to me. I have simply been upgraded without the inconvenience of having to haggle over a simple upgrade when they did not have the vehicle previously quoted.Reviewed May 15 2023

The service was super rude. Also they close and didn’t let me get my rental, even that we get in there one hour before closing.Reviewed May 15 2023
