My advice, don't go cheap on the rental car. Rent from the big companies, let your mastercard provide coverage for collision/loss protection and get the third party insurance.
I have a friend who works at alamo. He told me that avis, hertz, budget, nelly, payless are all owned by the same group of people.
I have never had serious problems renting from alamo. Reserve online, there are coupon codes out there that will save you some money.

Posts: 82Car rental in Santiago
I plan on coming into santiago next week. Anybody could reccomend a cheap car rental spot in the airport or off the beaten path. Not looking to spend more than 40 per day(And I know thats too much).
Thanks

In the Dominican Republic these people like to get ''cuts'' your driver got kick backs from Hotel Matum then Hotel clerk helped him by getting more money out of you.
If a taxi driver tried pulling that in front of Aloha Sol they would get ran off by the police in front.
I won't ever stay there after they did this to you ,screw them!
I hate touts and crooked buisnesses glad you brought it to our attention.

Posts: 299Fat#k tooooo much BS over a taxi! LOL I wish I was with you brother I luv putting the banditos in their place.
I had 1 taxi who wanted 500 pesos from El Conde to Melacon WTF Over! I smiled and told him that was not enough I was only going to pay 1000 pesos because I am really an idiot. I flagged another and he charged me only 100 pesos which is about right.
I think when I leave Afghanisfreakingstan I will start a VIP escort/protection detail here.
I love this place.

Posts: 507Got ripped of by a taxi driver Emilio who drives a white Toyota Camry. When you get off STI airport and see this dorky guy with glasses stay away from him unless you know your way around and can dictate. I ended up paying him 2500 pesos+beer+dinner and the moth**fuc*** was back for more the next day lying to the front desk that I did not pay him enuf. I have his card with me somewhere, once I find it I'll scan and post it here.
He wanted $20 to go from airport to Aloha. So I told him I want to come back to pasion after I check in and shower. He quotes me $30 for both and he will wait a little bit. On the way I tell him about my plans to go to Sosua the next day and he offers his services though I said I'm planning to take the bus. We talk about hotel options and he says Matum is the best deal and Aloha is over $100 a day, so I go to matum and check in there for $60 a night. Not a bad hotel though there were little mariposas as a chica called them (little roaches).
The guy waited for me and then we set off to pasion. on the way I saw international carwash (which i think is the best action for a carwash in sti that I saw, the other one hermano gomez diaz is useless) and wanted to stop for a few minutes to check it out. I got a big presidente and we shared and I talked to few chicas got phone numbers and then we were off. Once in Pasions we were early and its slow, he tells me there will be girls at the restaurant and we go there and get a table. He orders food for 500 pesos and we watch the girls. I am not hungry and just have a beer. At this point I get a little anxious and tell him I think I am done with him and ask him how much? he says $100 and that he will stay until I pick a chica and he will drop us home and he will be back the next day to take me to Sosua for a good deal. I said no way and with my poor spanish i get it down to $70 to get me back home.
I had one girl on site and took another one to the hotel with the dork driving us back. Pics in photo gallery. So once back in the hotel I dont have dollars so i give him 2k pesos and he takes his phone out and uses the calculator to show me 70X36 is more than that. So i gave him another 500 pesos and asked him to get lost. He comes back next morning at 10am and calls from the front desk asking if I wanted to go to Sosua. I told the front desk guy no thanks and hang up. 10 mins later the phone rings and the front desk guy say I need to pay up. the dork says I only paid him 1600 pesos and need to pay 500 more. I said I'll call policia and ask him to leave. they call 2 more times and the front desk guy says taxi wont leave until i pay up. After my chica left i went down around 1 pm and he was still there. i shoved him off and finally he left.
I learnt later that taxi from matum to pasion or anywhere within city only cost me 150 to 200 pesos max. Doh!!

It is always helpful to know what a venue looks like what when visiting for the first time. Photos of two bars in Santiago, from Bufeo.com.
