No issues

Bit messy and temu like but it did work

Overall satisfied, but had to wait for quite a while before the staff brought the car over during pickup. The staff left without saying anything, and I had to ask to find out that I needed to inspect the vehicle myself and mark any damages. The guard at the exit then signed off on it. None of this was proactively communicated.

The customer service staff was very patient. The car was a new Elantra with just over 2,000 kilometers. Pickup and return were very convenient!

Very efficient. When asked for a driver's license, they mentioned that having a Canadian one was convenient. So there were no translation issues. All the contracts were displayed on the screen, and I just signed to agree. Found the car outside, the key was inside, and I got an inspection sheet as well. If there were no scratches, I didn't need to worry. At the exit gate, someone checked my documents and contract again.

This is the fourth country I have done self-driving in abroad: Russia, New Zealand, the USA, and Canada. This time was the most frustrating, not because of spending more money due to language barriers, but because of the service attitude of the car rental company staff. In the other countries, even though I didn't understand the local language, the car rental company always made sure to clearly inform us about any additional charges. However, this lady had a very average attitude. When she saw we didn't understand English well, she didn't make an effort to communicate properly. When I asked if there were any extra charges, she didn't explain clearly and just said OK and had me sign. Only after signing and seeing an additional 200 CAD charge on my card did I realize what had happened. Communicating with her was difficult, and we initially thought it was a deposit. When returning the car, the inspector clarified with a simple explanation that we were charged over 200 CAD for insurance. Despite explicitly telling her I didn't want insurance, she still applied it. The problem isn't the money but the attitude toward service.
