KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in San Luis Potosí

  • Renting a car from San Luis Potosi car rentals is the best decision when visiting the city. San Luis Potosi boasts many beautiful sites, and the best way to see them is by car. With your rental car, you can enjoy a day trip to Casa de la Cuesta or Toy Museum, about 113 miles from the city. You can also cruise to San Miguel de Allende approximately 113 miles South of San Luis Potosi to enjoy its cultural sites. Other places to explore are Aguascalientes, about 56 miles west of San Luis Potosi, and Cordoba, about 82 miles south of the city.
  • Car rentals in San Luis Potosi are available at the airports travelers can use to get to the city. The airports have both onsite and offsite counters. If you land at León Del Bajio Airport, find the Terminal Car rentals in San Luis Potosi near Calle Queretaro, which is a major street to downtown. Aguascalientes Airport has its own terminals and car rentals are located near Avenida Francisco I Madero, about 50 meters west of the terminal. Those arriving at San Luis Potosi Airport can find the counters adjacent to the terminal accessible via the street going through the San Francisco gate.
  • Driving in San Luis Potosi is easy and enjoyable since the streets are clean and the driving culture is very safe.

In the morning, the rush hours begin at around 6:30 am when the city is usually full of vehicles and last until around 9:00 - 9:30 am. The traffic is usually heavy in the evening from 3:30 pm to around 8 pm when most of the vehicles are off for the day. Traffic is generally more fluid after 8 pm because many residents have to go home. If you plan to drive in San Luis Potosi, avoid busy roads such as Avenida Lopez Mateos, especially during rush hour.

Driving in SLP was easy, parking in the city may not be the easiest to find otherwise over all pretty easy
Verified travelerMay 2023

This was the worst rental car experience ever. 5 cars in 1 month because they kept giving us defective vehicles. Ended up with a compact when I paid for an suv. Promised to refund me for the time we were without a vehicle and for the downgrade. Instead they double charged me and threatened to call the police if we didn't give them all the money we had on us. We were basically shaken down and robbed. NEVER use this company!!!! You are warned ⚠️

The pick up experience was okay, the car driver’s side mirror was wrapped around with duck tape and the car wasn’t the cleanest. The not so good experience was when dropping off the car at the airport rental there was no one there to help, had to wait and no one picks up service call at budget Mexico. At the end just drop off the keys to the other car rental service man

The car I was provided was extremely old, dirty and unsafe. When I requested another vehicle that was safer for my wife and three kids I was told if I wanted another car I needed to contract with another agency. Twice while I had the car it overheated and when I called the manager he told me just to take it to a gas station and they knew what to do - no assistance of any kind from the manager (why bother giving me your number). When I returned the car, which had significant body damage documented when I rented, they tried to accuse me of incurring additional damage during my rental period and they held my deposit. I have since called my credit card and put a hold on their charges and will be calling Budget directly and sharing my experience. I have been renting cars in Mexico for 30 years and this is the absolute worst experience I have ever had. I would never recommend Budget in SLP and Cesar the manager should not be allowed to operate this franchise any longer.

Cons:

I had an 8 a.m. pickup time set on my booking, but the local office didn't even open until 9 a.m.. Then, they said they didn't have any cars and I had to wait. Then they gave me a manual, when I needed an automatic. So eventually, about 2.5 hours after my scheduled pickup time, I got a car I could drive, albeit much more expensive than I booked online. Terrible experience.

I made a minivan reservation with two car seats for my children 2 months in advance. Once I got to Hertz the guy at counter told me my reservation is not guaranteed until I get there. They didn’t have the minivan or a similar car to provide me with. I was stuck without a car with two small kids at airport. Terrible horrible service. I will never do business with Hertz again.
