When I arrived at the rental company, I was told that they only have Wranglers and no other Jeep models. I specifically chose the more expensive Grand Cherokee or similar model to have more space for my stuff. If I had known this, why would the website list more expensive Jeep models? I could have just chosen a Wrangler directly. So when I got the Wrangler, I couldn't fit everything, which was very inconvenient.
It appears to be a Mexican-operated store. The company seems to have only five staff: one for driving the shuttle, one for cleaning cars, one for handing over cars, and two for customer service, making the wait time quite long. The staff is rather inflexible, requiring a translated document. I didn't need a translated document in New Zealand, the UK, or Spain. This led me to find a translator urgently. Thankfully, the translator was very accommodating and agreed to translate first and get paid after I got the car. It took just half an hour to get it done and submit it to the rental company.
1. This is supposed to be a local chain, but I only found two locations in the whole of Vancouver.
2. During the booking, I specifically chose the Jeep Cherokee, but I got a Nissan instead. The difference is night and day. I couldn't argue because the rental company is located outside the airport. If you don't want it, you have to walk back to the airport yourself.
3. Nowhere did it mention that there was a mileage limit. I went to the US and was told I could only drive 1300 kilometers in 6 days, and any extra would be charged at 30 CAD per kilometer. I just had to accept it.
4. When I picked up the car, they rushed me through a 1-minute inspection, but when I returned it, they took 10 minutes to check. They said there was a ~0.2cm scratch on the top of the windshield that wasn't there before. They insisted it was my fault. Are you crazy for money? Making all sorts of excuses to charge me. In the end, I had to catch a flight, so I unwillingly wrote down what happened.
The wartime to get the car, and especially to drop off the car and have the shuttle take me to the airport was very long. Almost missed my flight. There was a huge lineup of people waiting to get cars.
Was a little sceptical of Routes Vancouver seeing as they weren't one of the main chains. However I found them extremely organised, the price was incredibly good value, the staff were friendly and the car was great.
Would definitely use Routes again when I’m back in BC.
