The car was filthy, was not filled with gas but was expected to be returned as such, and car seat was disgusting, had to buy one from Walmart as it was that bad. Usually when I've rented before in other places locations I have not had these issues. Staff was friendly and attentive.

A very comfortable Hyundai Tucson! Small, compact, with a nice size storage area for 4 people & much luggage!!! I was disappointed that both self checkin kiosks were not functioning at San Juan, PR airport. And where I booked the rental…I had read & was under the impression that all 4 of us could drive at no extra cost. But no…only 2 of us could drive and the extra driver was $10 a day extra. Not major but disappointing.

The car was new and in perfect condition, gave us an upgrade because our original rental was no longer available. Everything was great; however, they would not guarantee us a rental prior to arrival due to the high demand. We were impacted by weather delays, and not knowing if a car would be available for us when we arrived in the very early morning hours was nerve wracking. Otherwise, satisfied with the service and car quality.

They don't train their staff well so they make mistakes,they don't know the policies. I bought insurance before the trip and when I got there the undertrained staff did not accept it and overcharged me by triple. I went through proper channels and got the money back but was a real challenge. And the management was incredibly rude and dishonest, although at the end they took care of it the customer service was awful at best. Would not recommend it.

Our flight had delayed and they were closed after 11:30pm. This was not there as a clear note, so we did not know they will be closed after 11:30. So we were not able to pick up the car and had to take uber.

The service rep was so uninterested in renting to me that i a tu went next door to Nu rental and rented from them. He seemed to turn a lot of people away with his attitude. I showed my declaration page to nu rental and had no problems there and although it was a smaller vehicle, it was half the cost. I will never rent from Payless.

SCAM! I was originally quoted $110 for my rental car, taxes, and fees. I left Payless being charged $340. I was told if I did not pay for their insurance we would have to wait for a long verification process for my own insurance and a $1000 hold would be placed on my card. The customer in front of me had a similar experience. I overheard him asking the clerk about the outrageous price hike. The man behind the counter talked down to me and my family with more condescends I have ever experienced when we only talked to him with respect. I would rather walk then give them my business again.

Online reservation was less than $300, on site I had no choice than to accept an insurance for $600 making my rental go up to almost 1k. I will avoid this company at all cost in the future.

1. It's not *at* the airport, so you need to take a 10 minute shuttle. 2. Shuttle appears regularly and was comfy and A/C'd. 3. They hard-sell you additional insurance and EZPass daily charges at checkout. It ended up adding about 20% to our total which completely negated going for an "off-airport" place. I *knew* I should have been more forceful, but the attendant was asking for my full policy papers and there was a line behind me and I had just come off a long flight, so they count on you just giving up. Grrrrr.

I liked that there was an upgraded in my vehicle since they had me waiting for over an hour before I was picked up at the airport. I liked that a ticket was removed which I did not know of having knowledge of for crossing a private bridge. However, I did not like that the windshield pump was damaged and all the windshield fluid was gone. When I bought some if drained quickly because of damaged to the container. This added stress to the trip specially during rainy days. The windshield had a glare that made it difficult to drive even after several cleanings with soap and water. The wipers were not working properly.

Nothing. Don’t come here.

The staff was very very slow and did not care about customer service. She was rude when I tried to get a time estimate after waiting 40 mins to be called up. The other staff members appeared to be very disorganized. After 50 minutes, we decided to leave. We never got the car and took our business to another car rental place that was much much quicker.

Oh my, this place is a mess... it's now called allied. I rented here before with the same experience. This time I had to cancel because they were saying my online rate wouldn't allow me to use my private vehicle full coverage.... so rented online then they wanted an additional 174$... went to NU down the street got a nicer car for same original online price. Also 2 different customers were accused of damaging their car while we were standing in line, both had taken pics and proved otherwise. It is slow, rude, disorganized, poorly ran, etc.

The biggest problem is with your estimating system. The taxes and fees you gave me were 150% off. Wasted 1 hour of my trip trying to understand what happened. Your system should not use US estimates it’s way off and it makes for a lot of unhappy customers

The size car we paid for was unavailable so we ended up in a small car instead. And due to that it was a waste of money because we were overcharged.

I like how no one would ever take my complaint seriously. I locked the key in the car and had to find a locksmith to get it open. When I called the company, they told me the information to get local service was on the rental agreement. I explained that the rental agreement was locked in the car! To this date, I've still not heard from them.

Drop off and pick up was easy, the car was a Mitsubishi Mirage and it was pretty beat up. It lacked any kind of engine power, and was scary at times going over all the speed bumps they have. Overall it got us where we wanted to go so I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

Office closed at 12:00 p.m. on a Saturday (having the office placed in a touristic location). When I went to another office (in SJU airport) they weren’t interested on offering me a solution keeping the same price but twice as much. Overall experience 0/10.

Super duper helpful guys at the desk who helped me at check-in after a very trying and long travel day full of delays with two young boys. I somehow had accidentally booked the car at a different location in the city and not at the airport, but they were extremely understanding and helpful and found me the same class of car and even pulled out a promo rate so that the price wouldn't differ much despite my error. Very grateful for their help and great service. Car was great as well.
