There is no AVIS in GIG - only Unidas, which was never mentiond. Even the last Mail said go to "AVIS Counter".. the signs in the Airport for rental car lead everywhere but not to rental car, needed help from 2 airport employees to find it. Even after traveling really often... Drop Off was the same, signs on airport leading to an Unidas Station opposite side of the street from airport, which we thought it is correct, but its not..Reviewed 9 May 2024

The pickup was a pretty horrible experience. The person checked me in and I paid, which took about 20 minutes. Then they realized that they had checked me in as the wrong person. Then voiding this was difficult and the system did. Not want to check me in as it thought I had a car already. Had to wait for the manager. We were supposed to get a small car but we got a Chevy Silverado that smelled like cigarettes. In all, not great.Reviewed 4 May 2024

The car was filthy/dirty. The line was big to get the keys so I didn't want to go back and wait another 40mins to tell them to exchange the car. Bare minimum a rental car should be ran through a car wash and vacuumed before giving it to the next renter. Also, I rented a Passat like car and got a minivan which is away bigger than I needed and consumes more gas. Not a good experience.Reviewed 4 May 2024
