No. With Hola Car Rentals, all costs and charges for your Dollar booking in Cleveland are clearly shown at the time of reservation and in your confirmation email, so you know exactly what you are paying before you arrive at the Dollar counter.

On top of that, every Hola Car Rentals booking includes the No Extra Charges© guarantee. This is a pricing guarantee (not insurance) that protects you if the Dollar counter in Cleveland charges you for something that was not listed on your confirmation and was not an optional add-on you accepted. If that happens, Hola Car Rentals will work with Dollar to remove or reimburse the charge after verification.

The only costs outside this guarantee are:

• Optional add-ons you choose at the counter (GPS, child seats, prepaid fuel)
• Usage-based charges (tolls, fuel shortfall, traffic fines)

After landing at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE), your Dollar rental pickup requires a short shuttle ride to the off-airport facility at 19601 Maplewood Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44135.

• After collecting your baggage, exit through door 5 to reach the shuttle pickup zone.
• Board the Dollar shuttle, which runs regularly between the terminal and the rental facility.
• At the facility, proceed to the Dollar counter with your booking confirmation, driver's license, and credit card.

Plan extra time for the shuttle wait and ride, especially if you arrive on a weekend afternoon. The Dollar counter at Cleveland Hopkins closes at 4:30 PM on Saturdays and Sundays, so late-afternoon arrivals should factor that into their schedule. Weekday hours run until 11:00 PM.

Dollar operates two locations in Cleveland, each with different hours.

• Cleveland Hopkins International Airport (CLE), 19601 Maplewood Avenue: Monday through Friday 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM, Saturday and Sunday 9:00 AM to 4:30 PM. After-hours vehicle returns are supported via a drop box at this location.
• Downtown Cleveland, 1701 East 12th Street: Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM. No Sunday hours are available at this location.

If you plan to return your Dollar vehicle in Cleveland outside of counter hours at the airport location, park in the designated return area, complete the contract, lock the doors, and drop the keys and contract in the marked drop box. Always confirm current hours on your booking confirmation before travel, as hours can change on public holidays.

Yes, Dollar has a downtown Cleveland location at 1701 East 12th Street, Cleveland, OH 44114, in addition to the airport facility.

Unlike the Cleveland Hopkins Airport location, the downtown Dollar counter is a walk-up city-center branch with no shuttle required. It is open Monday through Friday 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM and Saturday 9:00 AM to 11:00 PM, with no Sunday service.

The airport location at 19601 Maplewood Avenue handles the majority of Dollar rentals in Cleveland and offers longer weekday hours and after-hours key drop. If you are arriving by plane, the airport facility is the more practical choice. The downtown location suits those already in the city center who do not need to travel to the airport.

Yes, toll roads are common near Cleveland, and your Dollar rental will be affected if you use them.

The main toll road in the area is the Ohio Turnpike (I-76, I-80, I-90), a 241-mile east-west route connecting Indiana to Pennsylvania and passing near Cleveland. Tolls for a standard passenger vehicle on a full crossing range from US$16 to US$27.75 depending on direction and payment method.

• E-ZPass (electronic transponder): US$16.00 to US$19.00 depending on direction, at a rate of 7.3 cents per mile.
• Cash or credit card at toll plazas: US$23.50 to US$27.75 depending on direction, at a rate of 10.6 cents per mile.

Your Dollar rental vehicle comes equipped with an electronic toll device. At the Cleveland counter you can choose an unlimited toll program (typically US$11 to US$25 per day) or pay per use, where actual tolls plus administrative fees are billed to your card after the rental. If you opt out, you can pay cash or credit at open plaza lanes on the Ohio Turnpike. Unpaid tolls result in notices sent to Dollar, which then charges your card along with additional administrative fees.

To collect your Dollar rental in Cleveland, bring the following physical documents to the counter.

• Your original, unexpired driver's license in the main driver's name.
• A major credit card with the driver's name printed on the card, used for the security deposit hold (debit and prepaid cards are not accepted).
• Your passport or valid government-issued photo ID.
• Your booking confirmation or printed voucher.
• Round-trip flight or cruise tickets if you are visiting from abroad.

If your driver's license is not in English and does not use a Latin alphabet (for example, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, or Cyrillic script), an International Driving Permit (IDP) is required alongside your original license at the Dollar counter in Cleveland. The IDP is a translation only and cannot be used without the original license. All documents must be physical originals; digital copies on a phone or tablet are not accepted.

Yes, you can add an additional driver to your Dollar rental in Cleveland, either as part of your rate or for a fee at the counter.

Some Hola Car Rentals rates include one additional driver at no extra cost. Check your booking confirmation for the line "Additional driver free of charge" to confirm whether this applies to your reservation.

If your rate does not include an additional driver, Dollar charges US$13.50 per rental day plus taxes, with a maximum cap of US$189 plus taxes for the rental period.

• The additional driver must be present at the Cleveland Dollar counter at pickup.
• They must present a valid driver's license (and an IDP if their license uses a non-Latin alphabet).
• They must meet the minimum age requirements for Cleveland.
• Both the main driver and the additional driver must sign the rental agreement.

Only drivers listed on the agreement are covered by the rental protections. Never allow an unlisted person to drive the vehicle.

The minimum age to rent a Dollar car in Cleveland without a surcharge is 25. Drivers aged 21 to 24 can rent but will be charged a young-renter surcharge at the Dollar counter.

Dollar charges US$13.50 per rental day plus taxes for drivers under 25, up to a maximum of US$189 plus taxes for the rental period. In addition, most vehicle classes are restricted to renters aged 25 and older. Drivers under 25 in Cleveland are generally limited to smaller categories such as economy, compact, and intermediate vehicles.

Ohio is not one of the states (like New York or Michigan) where law requires rentals to drivers aged 18 and older, so the standard Dollar policy of 21 as the minimum age applies in Cleveland. Drivers under 21 cannot rent from Dollar at any Cleveland location.

Regardless of age, a valid driver's license and a major credit card in the main driver's name are required at pickup.

All Hola Car Rentals bookings, including Dollar rentals in Cleveland, include Tolls Cashback, which reimburses up to 5% of your total booking value for tolls paid during your rental.

If you drive the Ohio Turnpike (I-76, I-80, I-90) near Cleveland, you can claim back the toll costs you paid, up to the 5% cap. For example, if your Dollar booking total is US$400, the maximum cashback is US$20. If you paid US$19 in tolls, you receive US$19 back. If you paid US$30, you receive US$20 (the cap).

To claim after returning your Dollar vehicle in Cleveland:

• Email [email protected] within 30 days of vehicle return.
• Use the subject line: Tolls Cashback - HOLA followed by your confirmation number.
• Attach your Hola Car Rentals reservation confirmation, the signed rental agreement from Dollar, and a toll receipt or statement showing charges paid during the rental.

Refunds are issued to your original payment method and typically process within 7 to 10 business days after approval. Late submissions beyond 30 days are not accepted.

Yes, one-way rentals are available through Dollar in Cleveland, allowing you to pick up at one location and return the vehicle in a different city.

A drop-off fee may apply depending on the route, vehicle class, and distance. This fee is set by Dollar and varies by destination. When booking through Hola Car Rentals, any applicable drop-off fee for your Cleveland pickup will be shown on the rate details page under the "To pay at destination" section before you confirm. It cannot be prepaid and is paid directly at the Dollar counter.

• Same-city routes (for example, Cleveland Hopkins Airport to the downtown Dollar location at 1701 East 12th Street) often carry no drop-off fee.
• Routes to other Ohio cities or out-of-state destinations typically incur a one-way fee.
• Cross-border returns (for example, to Canada) may be restricted or carry higher fees; confirm with Dollar at the Cleveland counter.

If you need to change your return location after booking, contact support as repricing and availability changes may apply.

Downtown Cleveland has permanent one-way street changes that can surprise drivers unfamiliar with the area, including those picking up or returning a Dollar rental.

Since June 2025, Huron Road and Prospect Avenue between Ontario Street and East 9th Street operate as a permanent one-way pair: Huron Road runs eastbound only and Prospect Avenue runs westbound only. This creates a deliberate loop that reduces each road from four lanes to two per direction, with the freed space used for protected bike lanes and pedestrian infrastructure.

• If you are navigating to or from the Dollar downtown location at 1701 East 12th Street, expect that direct two-way access on these streets is no longer possible.
• The change is permanent, not a temporary event-day restriction, so it applies at all times.
• The area near Progressive Field and Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse is particularly affected.

Additionally, the Innerbelt highways (I-71, I-77, I-90) have ongoing ramp and bridge reconstructions that create non-intuitive detours. Use a GPS or navigation app updated to 2025 or later to avoid confusion when driving your Dollar rental in Cleveland.

Dollar rentals in Cleveland follow a Full-to-Full fuel policy by default. You receive the vehicle with a full tank and must return it full to avoid additional charges.

• At pickup, check the fuel gauge with the Dollar agent and confirm the starting level is recorded on the rental agreement.
• Take a photo of the dashboard showing the odometer and fuel gauge before leaving the Cleveland location.
• Refuel within approximately 10 miles of the return location so the gauge does not drop before you arrive.
• Keep your final fuel receipt showing the date, time, and station address.

If you return the Dollar vehicle in Cleveland with less than a full tank, you may be charged for the fuel shortfall at the partner's refueling rate, which is typically higher than the retail pump price, plus a refueling service fee. For after-hours returns at the Cleveland Hopkins Airport location, leave the fuel receipt in the key drop envelope and keep a photo of the full gauge on your phone as evidence.

The insurance coverage included in your Dollar rental in Cleveland depends on the rate plan selected when booking through Hola Car Rentals.

Most Hola Car Rentals rates include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) or Loss Damage Waiver (LDW), which reduces your financial liability for damage to the Dollar vehicle from a collision, theft, or vandalism. A deductible may apply unless your confirmation explicitly states zero deductible.

CDW and LDW do not cover third-party liability, meaning injury or property damage you cause to others while driving in Cleveland. For that protection, you need Liability Insurance Supplementary (LIS/ALI/SLI), which can be added to your booking. Some U.S. states require a minimum level of third-party liability, but not all do.

• Check your Hola Car Rentals confirmation for the specific coverages listed on your rate.
• At the Dollar counter in Cleveland, review the rental agreement to confirm CDW and any liability coverage are active.
• Add all drivers to the agreement; coverage applies only to named drivers.

CDW does not cover tires, undercarriage, roof, or personal belongings. Report any incident to Dollar immediately.

Yes, most Hola Car Rentals bookings, including Dollar rentals in Cleveland, include travel assistance provided by Terrawind Global Protection, at no additional cost.

This benefit is particularly useful if you experience a medical emergency or accident while driving in Cleveland or on the Ohio Turnpike. Coverage typically includes:

• Travel insurance with medical coverage for up to 5 passengers.
• Legal assistance in the event of an accident.
• Compensation for baggage lost by the airline.
• Flight cancellation insurance.

To reach assistance 24 hours a day, call +1 888 980 9992 (toll-free) or contact via WhatsApp at +1 208 910 1001. Have your Hola Car Rentals confirmation number ready when you call.

Important: this travel assistance benefit does not apply to residents of the United States or Canada. It is designed for international visitors renting a Dollar vehicle in Cleveland. It also does not cover damage to the rental car itself (that is handled by CDW) or third-party liability (handled by LIS). Always review your booking confirmation for the exact terms and coverage limits that apply to your reservation.
