Did not have the car type that I booked. I had to go to the returns area to pick it up (extra time). They did not bother to inspect the car beforehand but meticulously inspected it after. Constantly looking for ways to charge me more - insurance, automatic upsells and, finally, charging for a wheel scratch that was already present.

Mediocre|Jul 2023
We were not informed ahead of time about the need for a personalized letter from our credit car company stating that we would be covered on the cc travel insurance coverage. As a result we were forced to take the 35 euro per day insurance and it doubled the cost of the car rental.
No insurance included, came as a surprise when I had to pay an extra 100 euros upon collection
