They are a franchise location and will make your vacation a nightmare. They don't answer the phone at all, I had to go into the location to get answers for anything. Now that I'm back in the state and they messed up their invoicing it's been an absolute disaster to get any straight answers. 1 month post vacation and I'm still trying to deal with erroneous charges.

They charged me $100 more than what I have in my contract. I have been trying to contact them for two weeks and they still can't answer me about my extra charges and I made a dispute with my credit card. Be very careful when you close your contract. Get a print it Save it In case you have any problems.

Hertz was very helpful. We originally booked a 7 passenger vehicle through another company. When we arrived it was only a 6 passenger and didn't accommodate our group. Hertz allowed us to switch our reservation to them and gave us a 7 passenger. While having it we experienced a low tire pressure light several times. We added air and it kept getting low. We called and they met us and brought us another 7 passenger vehicle at no charge. Great customer service. Staff was very accommodating and kind.

Service is slower than regular but they came through. We waited about 45 minutes to get car we had reserved. We found roach with eggs in car compartment lol but car worked well in general. We rented a jeep wrangler. Best car to rent out in the island. When we turned in car during mid day , they were pretty quick in checking us out as we emptied the car.

This is not a regular hertz location!! Rather a separate company using the hertz name. After passing a sign that said that I should proceeded to the directory board my name was not on the board, so I spoke to an agent there and he directed me to a car that I was barely able to fit in. I had a reservation for a regular carand I am a President Circle member. When I told that to this representative, he simply responded "sorry" and every time I explain my issue that's all he said. There were plenty other cars there and he refused to give me anything else. Although I do like Hertz, next time I fly into San Juan I will use a different company.

Do not use this private owned company that uses hertz name. They have been absolutely rude to work with. We were involved in a hit and run and they charged us the $500 deposit for damage. Okay fine it was barely even a scratch. I put in for my insurance to pay it and this company will not send over the demand letter and the itemized estimate or repair. So my insurance cannot file anything because this company will not send these documents over. Again because it was a scratch. The car needs no repair it is still drivable so they did not fix anything and will not send over the stuff to my insurance company.... Now I am left paying the $500 for damage I did not cause...........

Worst service I've ever experienced for car rental. The people working here do not care. Car smelled like smoke, it clearly states all cars are non smoking. The car wouldn't shift when driving. The car had maintenance required lights come on. The car horn would not stop beeping when you drive. We returned the car early and had to argue to get a refund for the days not used. They said everything was our fault.

Make sure you rent on line probably wont get a car if you don't. Expect to wait in line a long long time. They only had a few people working probably short staffed like all of us so thats understandable. The lady at counter was very nice. The company should have a better system for people who are waiting in line especially for the elderly or handicapped. Maybe give numbers and allow people to sit ...an hour is a long time to stand for some people. Take pictures inside and out some cars are damaged just to protect yourself. The car ran fine

Horrible, unorganized customer service. They will make you wait forever to return the vehicle and then charge you for it and any other fees they can charge for no reason. Save the hassle and rent from another company!

Terrible experience, they charge what they want, no matter that you already have a reservation at an agreed price, the manager told us that they are not governed by the Hertz website, that they have their own policies and that if we do not accept, they will not give us the vehicle. The manager even evicted us from the office. We went next door to another rental company and in 5 minutes they gave us a vehicle, avoid going to that Hertz agency.
Translation
Pesima experiencia cobran lo que quieren no importa que ya tengas una reservacion a un precio acordado la manager nos dijo q ellos no se rigen por la pagina de hertz que ellos tienen sus propias politicas y que si no aceptamos no nos dan el vehiculo. La manager hasta nos desalojo de la oficina. Fuimos al lado a otra rentadora y en 5 minutos nos dieron un vehiculo eviten ir a esa agencia de hertz.

I had bad luck at the airport, so this is not for them, however I asked the satellite location in Fajardo where I should leave a review, and JonRafael told me here. This review is for him. After bad luck with vehicles from the airport, this convenient location really saved the experience. JonRafael was professional, fair, and made sure I had a vehicle that worked great and was located locally. I saw other customers be a bit extra and he kept it professional and in control at all times. He should be the face of Hertz in Puerto Rico, and even with my initial mishaps and bad luck with vehicles, JonRafael has assured that Id be renting with Hertz again.

Slow to have a car ready for a Gold/ Presidents Club member. Otherwise car worked well, was clean, and return was easy.

Be aware that this place is the 1st scam you will encounter when you get to Puerto Rico. The first thing is the over price cost, and 2nd is all the lies they will tell you when you rent your vehicle. If you are going to rent, just fuel the car before returning the vehicle and make sure its clean because they will try to hit you with something just to charge your card. I received a car super dirty inside and outside . I returned the sameway even more clean that it was give it to me and still the charge me. And they lied about I didnt have to fuel upon return just to charge me $9.99 per gallon. BE AWARE THEY WILL TRY TO GET YOU. I will not recommend this place to anyone, but if you already make reservations, you know what you are going to deal with.

Very disappointed with the customer service at this location. I was charged a 3 hour late fee for dropping off the rental 25 minutes late. I reached out to this location to get an explanation why I was being charged three hours. The representative on the phone explained to me that they would forward the information to a manager for a review and would be contacted. I waited 5 days with no follow up. I called in a second time to get an update on the matter. The representative on the phone said there s a note in the system for a manager to review the invoice and would be contacted shortly. I received an email 15 minutes later with a new invoice and the late charges removed. Disappointed with management as i never received a phone call with an explanation of the late fee or apology that took more than a week to resolve this issue. Poor communication from management.

Make sure you double check the rental agreement. I booked it through AAA travel prepaid. When I got there the rate was changed. When i got back to NY I saw additional costs and a different rate. I complained to AAA but they havent done anything so far. I have yet to file a complaint with the NYS Attorney General because frankly I am too lazy to fight over the 259 bucks

This place, or at least employee Jose Avier, scams. Jose told me that he could not rent me the car unless I showed proof of my insurance, which I had not printed off - as I have never been asked to provide this level of detail at any point in the past. I had used an employer code that is supposed to waive any insurance fees, but Jose told me he could not honor it. Needing the car, I was forced to buy their expensive liability insurance coverage for my trip. Jose told me that to offset this, he would waive any refueling fee so I could bring the car back without gas. When I returned the car, I was surprised find I had been charged $100 for gas at $9.99 per gallon. I contested with Hertz HQ, but because nowhere in the contract had the refueling fee been waived as Jose had told me, Hertz HQ rejected my claim. Avoid this Hertz location if at all possible.

Be very careful when renting from hertz, especially about Administration Fee, and read the fine print. I wasnt planning to use the toll roads so I declined the $5.99/day toll pass. During my trip I somehow ended up with a 1.50 in tolls, and for that they charged $50 Toll fee (~25% of my total rental cost). When contacting customer service, they said its on the contract and they couldnt do anything about it.

Thrifty/Hertz car rentals has been the worst experience. They are a scam company that prey on individuals and families that dont travel that often and are trying to save money. They charged $1500 in fees at the end of the rental!!!!! and lied about the condition of the car upon check-in. I was following google maps and the car got stuck in the mud about 2 hours away from the Puerto Rico airport. I told Hertz roadside assistance to return the car to our apartment since it was just dirty and I got a ride back with a friend. They agreed but then stopped answering my calls after the tow truck got to the car, and they took the car straight to the airport. Since then, I have received a $250 cleaning fee, a $300 towing fee, a $164 gas fill-up fee and an $823 damage fee. THIS IS A TOTAL OF $1500 IN FEES!!! The itemized receipt they sent me (after I annoyed them for it) said that the damage cost was to disassemble some of the car and detail it. I have pictures of the car when I left it for the tow truck, and there are no damages on the car. And they havent returned any of our items that were left in the car, which they considered trash. I asked for the car to be returned to me because it was dirty from the mud and I could have sprayed it down with a hose and a rag. When I called up the trip insurance company that was sold with the car rental, they said that they dont service Puerto Rico. When I called up the customer service department they said that there wasnt anything that they could do to remove the charge, but that they are sorry? I cant dispute the towing charges because I dont have the tow truck driver conversation in writing. I called the tow truck company and they answered with dont call us again and they hung up. The Hertz customer service supervisor is always out of the office every day that I call or has just barely left. Every time. It has been almost a month now and I am still trying to get in contact with Hertz and find a supervisor, but it seems like their strategy is to put things off so long and make life so difficult that it isnt worth their customers time to fight it. Which makes sense because Hertz is appealing to families that dont travel that often and are trying to save money. My recommendation: Dont ever go with Hertz or Thrifty. They are a scammy company and this isnt a unique situation amongst their customers. Just read the other reviews online.
