What we liked is that when we had a flat tire, Alamo replaced our car quickly. What could have been better is that a representative works have been at the counter when we arrived. Over-all a great experience!

the type of vehicle waiting for me based on the number of suitcases was not acceptable. Just because my flight was delayed. They dont have nice size vehicles as advertised on their site . I would not use this site again or ALAMO . Customer service sent us outside of the airport and we got a compact car when I paid for a full size SUV, I was delivered a day later a nissan X trail and no one could fit on the third seat ... My vacation was not enjoyable due to the type of vehicle I was stucked with . I expected a full size SUV and I got a mini SUV we could not visit all the places we wanted to .

The staff was very friendly and we ended up with a great car. However, pickup and dropoff each took 1.5 hours with only one other person in line ahead of us. The process needs to be streamlined better; there's no reason it should take that long to print out and sign documents.

Employees are very courteous and very professional. Benjamin and Ramona were great. Facilities are outdoors for pickup and drop-off. It is uncomfortable for clients and employees. Airport authorities must invest in proper facilities in a country that is otherwise geared for tourism and other business.

Cars show some were and tear. Agents try to sell you premium insurance that can be considerably costly. Be sure to as what coverage is needed outside of CDW coverage that your credit card provides.

Had to walk a long way in darkness to the office to get my car. Slow service. Beat up car, full of scratches and dents. Broken down radio. EXPENSIVE insurance! Slow return! Nothing like Avis in USA.

Pick up was great and has no issues, as I always expect from this company.

While dropping off, the attending associate was rude and unprofessional.

the drop-off was super easy. the guy in the punta cana counter was helpfull.

the price and the final information to the customer. we booked the car for 160 USD and the final price was 530USD something unbelievable because the guy says that that price doesn't have the mandatory insurance, so he charged like 370USD more of the final price informed on the Kayak web page. that is very annoying because you want to pay what they told you for the first time, not with so many conditions and mandatory insurances that are not published on the web page.

He tried to play by ear and not specific in terms of added tax and final amount. My rental said "tax included", so I didn't get it. He added more than 40% extra in taxes, even 10% extra for the Hotel Sheraton.

Kayak should not advertise "all tax included" when it is not true.

The insurance rate was ridiculous. The rental car company holds you $1000.00 in your Credit Card as a surety. Unacceptable

Priceline gave me a quote for $82 dollars and the place ended up charging me $256. By that point it was too late to make other arrangements.

Customer service was amazing I was treated like a queen, they even fetch me some snacks while I was waiting for my rental. The only thing I didn't like was to wait for almost 2 hours to receive the car after a long flight with my 8 yo kid.

Do not book with this company. Not only did I not get the car I requested I had to pay extra 570 dollars for a beat up gigantic fan that they held 3,0000 US dollars in credit card deposit. They said they would replace the car the next day but we spent a LOT OF MONEY on gas for the one they didn’t exchange. Do not get ripped off as we (and other people did who were being helped by another attendant.) You can’t get through to customer service either. Don’t let them direct you to this company. Stick with Avis or budget especially if you don’t speak Spanish!

Tried to force me to pay $300 more for liability insurance that was "required by law." I stood my ground and they relented, but not after wasting hours of time going back and forth.

Car smelled like cigarettes

NOTHING!! IT WAS A COMPLETE RIP-OFF!!! DO NOT RENT FROM ECONOMY!! DO NOT RENT FROM AMERIRENT, WHICH IS AFFILIATED WITH ECONOMY! Wouldn't rent to me unless I bought liability and collision insurance, for which they wanted $840 on top of the $198 rental fee for the car for 13 days. I refused, and we went through a 2-hour haggling process where I kept refusing...mainly because I had ALREADY purchased the Allianz collision and liability protection online, when i booked the car. Their justification: A small line in the online reservation that said (approximately) "There may be various local charges which must be paid at the point of rental.' From that, they justified charging criminal prices. Ultimately, we couldn't argue with them forever. We finally skipped the collision coverage entirely, and received a 'discounted rate' for liability insurance of 'only' $240. RIP-OFF PRICING TACTICS!! i kept refusing the insurance, and polled several other rental counters...but they were all supporting each other by claiming cars were unavailable or asking outrageous prices. DO NOT RENT FROM ECONOMY!! DO NOT RENT FROM AMERIRENT, WHICH IS AFFILIATED WITH ECONOMY!

An honest quote with fair pricing would resolve this problem entirely. DO NOT RENT FROM ECONOMY!! DO NOT RENT FROM AMERIRENT, WHICH IS AFFILIATED WITH ECONOMY! Classic bait and switch pricing tactics.

I was charged for additional insurance when making the reservation and when i picked up my car was told the insurance I had was not acceptable and needed to take out budgets insurance which ended up costing me double what i was expecting to pay. car rental pick up in Santo Domingo is a very long and drawn out procedure it took me over 30 minutes to complete all the paper work and get the required documents and pay so i could go and get the car. the entire pick up process from time I got to the counter until I drove off the lot was over an hour which is just not acceptable. When finally departing with the car I was not informed that on return I must not follow signs to car rental drop off but go towards the terminal where the new budget office is. So on my return I went to the car rental area and once inside I realized I was in the wrong spot and then could not exit as needed a ticket to exit called budget who said they would come get me in about 5 minutes but this did not happen after waiting for about 20 minutes was fortunate that an employee from another rental company gave me an exit ticket so I get out and told me where to go. When I finally got to the budget drop off office and asked why I was not informed not to follow car rental signs was told but you picked the car up from here you should have know. Though by using a well know company would avoid all these issues but realize that was not the case. if renting cars at Las Americas airport Santo Domingo factor in at least 1 hour or more to get your car

The reception staff terrorize you if you’ve taken out Allianz insurance as offered through the Kayak/Expedia platform (as it happens, it would have been cheaper to purchase coverage on site) but we found that experience very unpleasant. The AC was in and out, but otherwise, everything was fine.

The shuttle took almost 40 minutes to pick us up. Each time we asked via phone we were told it was on its way and would get there in less than 5 minutes. Later we find out that pick up facility was a short walking distance and we could have saved more than 30 minutes by just walking. The vehicle was not ready and we were provided with a dirty substitute.
