The shop is small, but the process was handled very quickly.

Very convenient. The staff confirmed if extra insurance was needed, and after I declined, there was no aggressive upselling. Both pickup and return were smooth. Great experience with a big company.

The car had 60000 km on the clock but the front tyres were very worn and badly under inflated on pick up. Too tired to make a fuss re tyre condition after 11 hour flight but asked staff to top up the air. I had to top up with air on both front tyres twice during the 2 week trip. The rep insisted that I typed in my personal information on my phone which was laborious after a long flight and it would have been much quicker if they did it on their website. On car return the rep pointed out a large dent in the driver's door. I had not seen the condition report at pick up as it was not referred to by the staff and attached to the back of the contract. I did take pictures before leaving so was able to prove that the dent was pre existing.

Great experience

First of all, the counter clerk insisted I pay $3000US deposit on the vehicle because I declined the "zero liability" insurance option even after I confirmed the fact my Visa includes this as a card courtesy. This could potentially ruin someone's trip if they didn't have that kind of money to leave as a deposit. Then, without my knowledge or say so, the vehicle booked was substituted for an inferior vehicle which lead to me blowing a tire while traveling to my rental property and then having to waste a day of my vacation (4+hour round trip) to return the vehicle and exchange it. Not to mention that the jack included in the vehicle was damaged and missing pieces making the tire change much more difficult than it should have been. Overall, NOT a good experience with Budget!

The Budget contract is a little misleading. I did not know that I had purchased the basic insurance or the prepaid gas. The staff never informed me.

Staff pushing hard on full insurance... Fortunately I speak Spanish and did my research on what I needed... Many tourists in neighboring counters took full insurance at $40USD a day. Good location though and shuttle was easy to find.

Car received was fairly clean and spacious for 5 people and our luggage, however had many dents and scratches. Also the customer rep at the counter did not properly explain my insurance options and got me to buy the minimal coverage when I would have otherwise gone with no insurance and saved a lot. Otherwise a great renting experience. will rent again if in Costa Rica.

The van was all manual. Each door had to be locked individually. windows were all manual. passenger seats were uncomfortable. I believe i paid for a an upgraded "luxury model". so the price was a little high for what i got.

Counter staff was good but did the "soft" hard sell about 3rd party liability that they say is required in Costa Rica. Accepted right away that we had insurance for everything else from our CC.
