I booked online, but had to fill in information offline at the counter; this was a bit inconvenient. Everything else was fine.

There were many people when we picked up the car, but the staff remained polite and enthusiastic when it was our turn. Because I had purchased full insurance on the app and prepared all the necessary documents, the car pickup process was very smooth. When returning the car, an elderly gentleman kindly took care of the processing and helped to properly store the items we left in the car. However, the $200 AUD deposit has not been settled yet.

They took a $200 deposit from me without mentioning when it would be refunded. My friend rented from the same company and wasn’t charged a deposit, so it felt unfair.

Easy to find

Very professional. Since it's full coverage, no extra check-in or check-out inspections are needed, similar to the no-liability insurance in China. The car was very new, just over 5000 kilometers, much better than the typical 20000 kilometers in China. However, others picking up a car at Franklin Hertz should be aware that the cars are parked in a garage, and you need to drive them down yourself. It's tricky if you're not used to right-hand drive cars yet. You can ask the staff to bring the car to the ground level before handing it over. At Melbourne Airport, there's a dedicated return lane for rental cars. It's a shared lane for all rental companies and not the entrance to a private car parking. Please pay attention to this.
