You’ll be treated to well-maintained roads in Waterloo and all of Ontario, so a simple, compact car is all most travellers need. Small economy vehicles are also ideal if you’re looking for cheap Waterloo car hire. If space is more of a priority than price, a sedan or SUV may be a better option. These give you more room for luggage while offering extra legroom for passengers at the same time.
Within the Waterloo city limits, you’ll find the speed limit is usually 40-50 km/h. Once you’re out on major motorways, like Highway 8 and Highway 7, the speed will generally be 100-110 km/h. Always keep an eye out for speed signs, and if you’re uncertain, default to the slower speed. Another thing to note is that, though it shares a border with the US, Canada operates on the metric system, so speed signs will be in kilometres, not miles.
Most hotels and serviced apartments, like Courtyard by Marriott Waterloo and Staybridge Suites Waterloo, offer free parking. You will generally find plenty of free 2h parking spaces in Waterloo on weekdays from 08:00 to 17:00. On weekends and from 17:00 to 03:00 on weekdays, parking in these spaces is free and untimed. However, if you want to leave your vehicle all night, you’ll need to register online for overnight parking with the City of Waterloo. A map of all the available parking spaces and their time limits can also be obtained from the City of Waterloo website.

Pros:
They re easy going when I requested a change of vehicle on 1st day. 2 pick up experience are good. They worked fast. No long wait. Drop off airport was painful. Hard to find Enterprise entrance!Cons:
I didn’t get correct receipt or rent contract. I didn’t hv any paper 1st day as they said they would email me. But no email received. I requested paper 2nd day. They gave me one but vehicle info wasn’t right. I told them the incorrect info n asked question about payable by email. No reply. After returned car 4 days, I still hv no email no receipt. I still don’t know what payable. Doc needs improvement.10,0 Wonderful

Pros:
Kayak made it seem easy, and booking was fast. I like that I didn't have to pay upfront.Cons:
I wasn't able to rent a car at all because Kayak all the small print and so I didn't show up to the dealership with the proper paperwork for under 25 driver. The person st enterprise was very kind but couldn't rent me a car so I went elsewhere. I won't be using kayak again for a while.One location in Waterloo

Cons:
Service from an employee who appeared rushed, despite no one being around. Different messages being delivered about availability of car, time of booking, etc. No real commitment about final cost. No walk around the car...no proper receipt for payment...2,0 Poor

Pros:
They have fun cars. You don't see turbocharged cars too often at other agencies.Cons:
They just hand you the keys, no car walk around with the customer is done. On returning the car I walked into the office and very audibly said good afternoon directly to the face of the customer service gentleman who was busy typing he didnt return the greeting plus took close to a minute to acknowledge me. At other agencies I would have immediately recieved an acknowledgement. Customer service and manners are a big deal for me. The exterior and interior of the office are also badly in need of some sprucing up. The car was also pricey compared to other rental agencies in the area.2,0 Poor
