I chose Tamra out of three rental companies because the reviews mentioned Chinese service. However, the so-called Chinese service is just adding a WeChat account in Chinese to ask questions directly. There are no staff members who speak Chinese at the store; communication is all in Korean or English, so it's manageable if your English is decent. The WeChat staff had a poor attitude and responded very slowly, providing no real help and significantly affecting my travel experience. I won't choose Tamra again. Driving around Jeju Island is very convenient and easy. Except for the city center, which has more traffic, other areas are not crowded and are great for driving.
The vehicle provided was not the model I had booked through easyrentcars.com, but it was an equivalent model, and seeing as I booked "economy", it was more than enough to get from A to B. Price was the same.
Our only complaint is that the gas tank was almost empty when the car was picked up. I didn't realize until I was almost out of gas, and had to make a detour. The condition of the car was cosmetically poor (many scrapes and scratches), but that didn't matter to me for cruising the countryside. It ran well and had no mechanical problems. I was expected to document pre-existing damage to the vehicle using my own cell phone pictures, which was strange as a foreigner, but possibly normal in Korea.
Huge bonus points to Tamra for being one of the only rental companies on Jeju island to rent to foreigners (non-koreans). At least one of their employees is impressively trilingual (English, Korean, Mandarin), which is a big deal for international travelers.
We booked a Kia Morning but they gave us a Chevrolet Spark instead. Besides that, their customer support is slow. I called to ask for help but they replied me on the next day. Luckily it wasn't any urgent matters, Tamra can work better in this. Other than that, everything is good!
