Very clear and prompt service.


EC car rental was really great. Our flight was late_ and we didn’t get out if the airport until almost 1am_ yet they were there to meet us. Little niceties like a chocolate and a cup of coffee went a long way for two tired travellers. There were optional expenses_ but no real hidden costs. We rented twice from them in this trip and both rentals went smoothly. We appreciated a shuttle to our hotel_ (rather than an airport drop off)_ where we awaited our early morning flight out.


We were really satisfied by the warm service of Harold. Excellent salesman.

The only down fall is that I paid for all this extra insurance and when I got to Costa Rica it cost more as they said I wasn’t covered.
