"I really liked the reservation screen for pickup times...side by side let's you easy match pick-up drop off. The vehicles were the best price (discounted prices for European travelers in the US at thus writing), otherwise rental car prices are rather high these days. Insurance is about peace of mind. Hola is over the top covering many of those extras the agent wants you to buy. And toll coverage up to 5%. Super. Without human attendants anymore, it's complicated in the Bay Area and particularly expensive in Miami (!) Auto companies see it as an opportunity to sell you lots of Toll coverage. Finally, what I did not notice was, "not knowing what I was renting" which is often noticed just before you press 'book'. The question did not enter my mind, that's a good thing. Their AI agent, perfectly better. Very good advice. And I did have the need to cancel and rebook. With the app, effective and bug free. One refund was credited in a hour. Another may take a few days, but will post. Also the app will display prices in the currency you select. Looking forward to booking with Hola again"

"This is not the first time we’ve rented cars through Hola, and each time we’re absolutely satisfied! Their service is excellent — always available, providing immediate responses, quickly solving any issues with kindness, and handling everything directly with the rental companies when needed. Even when a refund was required, they took care of it fully without any hassle. The personal, reliable, and professional approach makes all the difference. A fantastic experience every time, and I’ll definitely keep renting through them and highly recommend them to everyone"

"The experience was excellent, fast and easy with the least effort required to chose a car. From past experience the counter experience was favourable at Budget Miami Airport with no issues. This was the first time an agent at a rental desk did not try to sell me additional insurance or toll pass. My only concerns for this booking was the price gap was too high for standard cars compared to the basic cars."

"Unfortunately I had to cancel my booking with Hola Car Rentals for personal reasons. I was assisted by the Sales Manager Karen to do this. After completing the cancellation efficiently and promptly she went above and beyond to help me with several additional questions I had. Based on my experience I would highly recommend Hola Car Rentals Customer service and would definitely use them again. Their rental prices were very competitive too."

"As a Korean, I used the app to rent a car in California. The Dollar Rent-a-Car employee at the San Francisco branch was rude and insisted I purchase additional insurance ($25 per day) because the insurance I purchased through the Hola app was inadequate. However, Hola insisted that the full coverage policy applied and helped me cancel the additional insurance I had purchased at the Dollar Rent-a-Car location. I'm satisfied with Hola's customer service, but I think the Dollar Rent-a-Car employee's practice of selling additional insurance needs to be addressed."

"Wow! My first booking with Hola didn’t just meet expectations — they absolutely exceeded them in every possible way. So much so, that I made another rental booking immediately. I’m not usually someone who takes the time to write reviews, but this experience was so exceptional that I felt compelled to share it. At first, I thought I had secured a great price — but when I carefully reviewed the list of inclusions, I was genuinely blown away. In fact, it almost seemed too good to be true. I found myself double- and triple-checking my bookings, convinced there must have been some sort of system error. But no — everything was exactly as promised, and more - with NO extra cost. What truly stood out was the reaction from others. When I shared the pricing and inclusions with the Avis desk at the airport, hotel staff, as well as family and friends, they were equally astonished. Several even asked for your details on the spot — which says everything about the incredible value and service you provide. One thing worthy of note. Avis offered upgrades which I refused on the grounds that it might change the underlying agreement and result in added costs - be careful of adding extras at the point of collection. Regardless, the vehicles reserved were excellent. You have now become my absolute first choice — my go-to destination for rentals without hesitation. Experiences like this are rare, and you’ve set a new benchmark for excellence. Please keep up the outstanding work — you’ve gained a loyal customer for life."

"Hola Car rentals can’t be faulted. The pricing for an Avis car rental was significantly lower than from the actual Avis rental site. At first I was honestly nervous about booking, but not issue could be found in the entire process. If booking through Hola, ensure you take the confirmation paperwork with you to provide to the rental car company. Avis’ system didn’t register the additional driver but the confirmation email was used and they added the extra driver saving hundreds. Toll refunds are swift and instructions can be given using the WhatsApp AI chat bot. Collection location was Avis LAX Will be using Hola again"

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it usually take to get from Cleveland Hopkins (CLE) to downtown Cleveland once you’ve picked up a hire car?
The drive from Cleveland Hopkins International Airport to the city centre is typically quite manageable, often taking between 20 and 30 minutes with light to moderate traffic. The most direct route is via the I-71 North, which takes you straight into the heart of the city. However, during morning and evening rush hours this can extend to 45 minutes or more due to commuter congestion. It’s a good idea to check a real-time traffic app just before you leave the hire car facility to get the most accurate travel-time estimate for your arrival.
What’s the easiest way to reach the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame from CLE without getting tangled up in downtown one-way streets?
For a straightforward drive to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, take the I-71 North from the airport and merge onto the I-90 East. Instead of exiting into the dense downtown grid, stay on the I-90 and take the exit for East 9th Street. That exit positions you well to head north directly towards the lakefront and the museum. Following East 9th Street to the end will bring you right to the Hall of Fame and nearby parking, helping you avoid much of the complex one-way system in the central business district.
If I’m landing at CLE on a Browns game day, what should I know about road closures and traffic near the stadium area?
Arriving at CLE on a Browns game day calls for some strategic planning. Expect significant delays on main routes into the city, particularly on the I-71 North and the Shoreway (OH-2) near the stadium. Several streets immediately around FirstEnergy Stadium, such as Erieside Avenue and parts of East 9th Street, are likely to have restricted access or be closed to non-event traffic. To avoid the worst of it, use a navigation app with live traffic updates and be prepared to use alternative routes like the I-480 if your destination is not in the immediate downtown area.
What’s the most straightforward route from Cleveland airport to University Circle for the Cleveland Museum of Art and nearby attractions?
The most direct route to University Circle from CLE is to take the I-71 North toward downtown. As you approach the city you will merge with the I-90 East. Continue on the I-90 East for a few miles then take the exit for Martin Luther King Jr. Drive. This scenic parkway guides you directly into the heart of University Circle, home to the Cleveland Museum of Art, Severance Hall and the Natural History Museum. This route helps you avoid most downtown traffic and provides a pleasant introduction to the area’s cultural hub.
Where do drivers typically get tripped up around the I-71, I-77 and I-90 interchange when leaving CLE?
The interchange where the I-71, I-77 and I-90 converge just south of downtown Cleveland can be challenging for unfamiliar drivers. A common issue is the series of rapid lane changes required to reach your chosen highway. When heading north on the I-71 from the airport, you need to be in the correct lane well in advance whether you’re continuing onto the I-90 East or West, or transitioning to the I-77 South. Paying close attention to the overhead signs and using a satnav can help you navigate the splits and merges without making a last-minute, unsafe manoeuvre.
If my hotel is in Ohio City, what should I expect for driving and parking around West 25th Street on busy evenings?
Driving in Ohio City, particularly near the lively West 25th Street corridor, can be busy on evenings and weekends. The area is popular for dining and entertainment, which means increased vehicle and pedestrian traffic. While the main streets are straightforward to navigate, side streets can be narrow. On-street parking becomes scarce at peak times, so it’s sensible to identify a few public parking lots or garages in advance. Many are a short walk from main attractions, including the West Side Market, making them a convenient and less stressful option.
What’s the best way to handle a quick luggage re-pack or gear organisation stop right after picking up a hire car at CLE?
Immediately after leaving the hire car facility at CLE, you’ll find several convenient spots for a quick stop. The airport has a cell phone lot located just a minute or two from the hire car centre, which is an excellent place to pull over safely and organise your belongings. Alternatively, there are numerous shopping plazas with large car parks within a five-minute drive of the airport along Brookpark Road. These locations offer ample space to re-pack luggage or set up your navigation without the pressure of being in a busy drop-off zone.
How early should I plan to arrive at CLE for hire car return if I’m coming from a downtown Cleveland hotel on a weekday morning?
When returning your hire car from a downtown hotel on a weekday morning, it’s wise to build in extra time for potential rush-hour traffic. Plan to leave your hotel at least 45 to 60 minutes before you want to be at the airport terminal. This accounts for possible slowdowns on the I-71 South or the I-90 West. The hire car return process at CLE is generally efficient, but this buffer ensures you won’t feel rushed dropping off the car, catching the shuttle and getting through security for your flight.
What’s the easiest drive from Cleveland to Cuyahoga Valley National Park for a first-time visitor trying to avoid confusing turns?
For a simple and direct drive to the heart of Cuyahoga Valley National Park, the best route is to take the I-77 South from Cleveland. This interstate runs parallel to the park, offering multiple straightforward exits to key visitor areas. For the Canal Exploration Center, for example, you can take the Rockside Road exit and head east. For access to the Boston Mill Visitor Center, continue south on the I-77 and follow the clear signs after exiting. Using the I-77 minimises complex turns on local roads and gets you into the park efficiently.
Which CVNP spots are simplest for hire-car travellers who want short walks and easy parking access (like overlooks or boardwalks)?
Cuyahoga Valley National Park is very accessible for travellers with a hire car seeking easy-to-reach spots. The Canal Exploration Center offers ample parking and immediate access to level towpath trails. For great views with minimal walking, the Station Road Bridge Trailhead has a large lot and provides a scenic overlook of the Cuyahoga River. Additionally, Beaver Marsh is a must-see, featuring a dedicated parking area and a flat, accessible boardwalk that takes you right over the wetlands, perfect for a quick and rewarding stop.
If I’m planning a Brandywine Falls stop, what should I know about parking availability and the best time of day to arrive?
Brandywine Falls is one of the park’s most popular attractions and its car park can fill up quickly, especially at weekends. To secure a spot without stress, aim to arrive early in the morning, ideally before 10:00. Alternatively, visiting on a weekday or later in the afternoon after the initial crowds have thinned can also work well. The car park is conveniently located at the trailhead, providing immediate access to the boardwalks and viewing platforms for the falls.
How practical is it to combine the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and Edgewater Park in one day with a hire car?
Combining the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo and Edgewater Park in a single day is very practical with a hire car. The two locations are only about a 15-minute drive from each other, making for an easy transition. A good plan is to spend the morning and early afternoon at the zoo, which requires more walking and energy. Afterwards you can take a short drive to Edgewater Park for a relaxing late afternoon by the lake, enjoying the beach and skyline views as you wind down. Both attractions offer ample dedicated parking.
What should I expect when driving the Shoreway (OH-2) along the lakefront—are there exits that sneak up on you?
Driving the Shoreway (OH-2) offers fantastic views of Lake Erie and the downtown skyline, but it does require your attention. The road has several curves and some exits, particularly around the downtown area, can appear more quickly than on a standard interstate. The exits for West 28th Street and East 9th Street are key access points that you should be prepared for in advance. It’s also a route frequented by commuters, so be mindful of merging traffic and changing speed limits as you transition between the parkway and city street sections.
If I’m staying near Playhouse Square, where are the easiest pickup and drop-off areas that don’t block traffic?
When staying near Playhouse Square, the best spots for quick passenger pickups and drop-offs are typically on the side streets rather than directly on Euclid Avenue. Streets like East 13th or East 14th often have less through-traffic, providing a safer and less disruptive place to pull over for a moment. Many hotels in the area also have designated loading zones or valet circles that are ideal for this purpose. Using these designated areas helps maintain traffic flow in the busy theatre district, especially before and after showtimes.
What’s it like driving near Case Western Reserve University during weekday rush times and campus events?
Driving in the University Circle area, where Case Western Reserve University is located, can be congested during weekday rush hours and major campus events. The main thoroughfares, Euclid Avenue and Chester Avenue, experience heavy traffic as students, faculty and hospital staff commute. You should also be highly aware of pedestrians and cyclists throughout the neighbourhood. During special events like graduation or homecoming, parking becomes very limited, so it’s best to allow significant extra time for both driving and finding a space in one of the public garages.
