I was there 2.5 weeks ago and would never ever rent from Avis again! I booked Oranjestad location and this is not the Airport location as i thought (the website does not give Airport as an option so i assumed Oranjestad meant airport) . they did not honor the price which was quoted to me by computer and also I prinited out confirmation. after 1/2 hour on the phone they said ok they would "help me out" they were going to charge my card $1,500.00 hold because i had my own insuance plus the weekly rate (close to total $2,000.00)! hold on my card. Thank goodness I asked him just before he swiped my card. I told him there are plenty of other renters on the airport lot and i walked right out of there and rented from Budget who only required a 180.00 hold on my card. I had a price quotation of 195.00 and they wanted to charge me over 300.00 I asked why and he said airport has 11% charge because they are on the lot! last i checked 11% of 195.00 is not over 300.00
