We reserved a large, 15-passenger van and were given 2 minivans instead. They said they would call us when a 15-passenger van became available, we never heard back. I also believe we were overcharged based on the pricing we saw online, but didn't have a screenshot or anything else to prove that 2 minivans were going to cost less than 1 large van.

the actual charges were 4 times what was quoted and the car was a piece of junk. It didn’t hold the amount of luggage it claimed and the handling the car had was terrible, bordering on dangerous.
Paperwork is very slow. Takes awhile to checkin and check out

All was great, but car died an hour after the pickup. On the other hand they handled it really well. They got to the restaurant we were in about 30min. Drove us to our hotel, and brought the replacement in about 80 min. So not too bad…. We did loose a few hour on the beach on day one though.

Be warned about their insurance policy! I had to pay quite a lot, additionally, for full coverage that was unexpected. If you book through kayak, make sure you understand their policies before you arrive.
Rate was aprox $140.00 but went to $299. At counter trapped in Mexico what else can you do but pay it NOT HAPPY WITH KAYA AND not MonitoringCompanies for excessive charges

Grossly overpriced, Using Uber 2-3 times/day would have been much less expensive, and much more convenient. In addition, Budget substantial "daily" insurance fee, which was not disclosed at the time I made the booking. This part is completely unacceptable.

Was given a compact car after booking a mid-size. Pick-up was a disaster as the location of the office was incorrect.
Pickup from the airport was easy. We waited about 5 minutes to the shuttle to take us to the rental office that's outside of the airport. Once at the office, everything went smooth but was a little slow. We weren't in a hurry so it wasn't a problem. If there was urgency we would have been under stress. The vehicle was great and clean. Everyone went smoothly upon return.

The didn't have our vehicle and tried to place us in a car that would not accommodate all passengers. They were dishonest in the course of trying to figure out a solution.
Watch out this company. They are total scam. After booking the car online, I was tried to get charged extra $600 for nonsense insurance. I wasn’t informed by the insurance when I was booking the car. I cancelled my booking and they still charged me. I am taking legal action and I don’t eant anyone getting effected the same scam. Go book it from big companies, it is much more cheaper

We had a mechanical breakdown 70km from the rental location. Checkin was tedious with many forms and contract pages to read if one was fluent in Spanish and had an extra hour, staff was completely unhelpful and said we were “on our own” because we made a short trip on a sand road which was stated not to do, but we didn’t see this disclaimer in the contract. NO NELP AT ALL is what they told us. We managed to have a very helpful local get the car started again some problem in the system which staff of this company said was completely and totally our problem to fix. We did with the local and got back to Cabo after being stranded for 5 hours. Car did not start again and we contacted the agency who again said it was our fault and responsibility. Had another mechanic come to the hotel in the morning and managed to get it started (no promise if it would start again) and drove to airport, leaving car running while filling up the gas, and returned it. Agency stated we would be billed for this repair. Cheap agency that overcharged for insurance, had a car with 64000km, bald tires, damaged interior a/c controls and management with attitude! Strongly suggest NOT USING THIS AGENCY Routes or sister company. We won’t use this again! Very displeased to say the least!!!

They forced me to buy regular Liability Insurance (not SLI) for 20 dollars per day. This is supposed to be included in the car rental price as per car rental regulations in Mexico.You can add SLI if you want more coverage. I initially refused to pay so they would not rent me the car. I went to Budget car rental down the street and they verified the car rental fee includes the basic Liability Insurance as required by law. Of course Budget would rent me a car but at “walk-in” prices which was substantially more than the on-line deal I was supposed to get at Routes. So, I returned to Routes, told them what Budget said and they said I still had to buy Liability Insurance which I had to do. My opinion is Routes is a sham company in business to extort travelers illegally and should be shut down. I will be challenging the MasterCard charge for the car rental. Ken Burger

The price quoted is very cheap and states "total cost". However, when you pick up the car you are required to pay over $200 for insurance. The "total cost" should include insurance!

Was nobody in the office when we got there, things were pretty unorganized in the office, insurance was very expensive and confusing, car was fine and ran well. In the end they kept our deposit and said they couldn't find it was over $400!

Pickup took a long time. Rental agency charged me $160 for the most basic insurance and said it was mandatory. I paid $23 through Kayak.

The cost of the rental was reasonable. I had also paid $165 for third party vehicle insurance. But once I showed up to pick up the vehicle, the mandatory liability insurance was over twice the cost of the vehicle rental cost. Plus, if you don't take their collision insurance, they require a hold on your credit card for thousands of dollars. Will never rent from them again.

Picking up the car was a very long process. Has to endure the sales of signing up for presentation to reduce the price of the local insurance .... $425/week for a minimum coverage!!! .... although it seemed to be negotiable. Apparently you reserve the car at a low rate and pay a high local insurance at check out!!

The pick-up experience was particularly terrible. The attendant working tried to sell me insurance that was more than 10x the cost of the rental itself. I attempted to deny coverage and have a hold placed on my AMEX Platinum card which did not go through for some reason. I am convinced that was done on purpose. I was clearly agitated and someone else there said the insurance would be $200 if my wife and I sat through a timeshare present compared to $550 if we did not. So a 2.5 hour timeshare later and still no credit for the insurance like was described. I'll never use this company again.
The car was dented. Checkout took way too long. Employees were pushy Insurance was way too expensive

They did not have my reservation! I called customer service via Priceline and all they said is that I would just need to find another car. It took hours at the rental place and I spent $1000 on my rental versus $370 I planned on. The vehicle was also smaller. Will never use Kayak again.
