I can only speak for my experience at this SIXT (Guadalajara) location. I’ve been using this location to rent a car when I come into the area for the past 4 years. This branch communicates with you before, during, and after your rental with you through WhatsApp. If you’re flying into the airport they will pick you up at their designated location they indicate and drop you off on your return. I’ve never had an issue so far with them and will continue to rent with them for the foreseeable future. 5/5 for me. Thank You. … Sólo puedo hablar por mi experiencia en esta oficina de SIXT (Guadalajara). He estado utilizando esta ubicación para alquilar un coche cuando vengo a la zona durante los últimos 4 años. Esta ubicacion se comunica con uno antes, durante y después de la reservacion a través de WhatsApp. Si uno llega en avión al aeropuerto, te recogen en el lugar designado que ellos indican y te dejan a tu regreso. Nunca he tenido un problema hasta ahora con ellos y seguiré alquilando con ellos en el futuro previsible. 5/5 para mí. ¡Muchas gracias!

Good service. I made the reservation online paid at the time of booking. No hidden or extra fees when we got the rental car, extra coverage is offered but no pressure to add if you don't want to. They even tell you its not mandatory. I have booked rentals with different local and USA companies and this is the most transparent.
