The counter couldn't read our card and insisted it was our problem. Not until three people from different countries tried and failed did they admit it was their card reader issue. They offered no alternative solutions, wasting over an hour of our time. The first car they gave us was wrong, a smaller engine model. How come mistakes never work in your favor? We waited a long time for another car, and it still wasn't the model we reserved. Since the engine capacity was similar and we had already wasted a lot of time, we accepted it. Returning the car was even more frustrating. We called hours in advance to arrange the return but were told to call ten minutes prior. When we tried, the phone wouldn't connect. The airport signs were confusing, and we couldn't find the counter. We almost missed our flight and had to run to make it. It was a terrible experience.
The staff had poor English skills. When we picked up the car, they told us we could return it at the international terminal. But when we went to return it, they insisted we had to return it at the domestic terminal, which was under construction and a 20-minute walk from the international terminal. This caused us significant delays!
The counter is right in the baggage claim area, indoors. The car was parked at a temporary parking lot just outside the airport. Renting at the airport is more reliable and relatively cheaper than in other parts of the island. I hoped to get a Jazz (Honda Fit), and indeed that's what I got. The car was in good condition, though not brand new. We drove for 10 days from the south to the north, nearly covering the entire island.
