Self-Driving Trip in Germany: Enter from the North, Exit from the South

The company is excellent, and the staff are patient and responsible.

The service was excellent, with someone specifically waiting at the pickup point. However, the car handover process was a bit lengthy, taking about an hour in total.

The service was excellent. We rented a BMW 5 Series Touring but got a Volkswagen Touareg SUV, which was diesel and automatic. We were extremely satisfied. We only spent a bit of time finding the rental point as the rental company does not have a fixed location; they are located at the information desk in Terminal B at Frankfurt Airport. The procedure was very simple: present the rental order, driver’s license, and credit card. After completing the paperwork, a staff member drove the car to the entrance of Terminal B. We inspected the vehicle, signed the document, and left with a full tank. The car was a new model from August this year with only 10,000 kilometers. It exceeded our expectations.

Overall satisfied, but returning the car was a nightmare! The reason is that when picking up the car in Frankfurt, it was confirmed that the car was to be returned at Frankfurt Airport (common sense would think it's at the terminal's lower level), but upon arrival at Terminals 1 and 2, we couldn't find the CARO company office (other rental company offices were all there). Desperately asked locals for help and found out the CARO return office is in a nearby town. This was not clearly explained by the staff during pick-up!!!!

Not satisfied at all. When picking up the car, they didn't mention checking the front glass. When returning the car, they claimed there was a scratch, but we never went anywhere that could cause it. We found the rear side dent ourselves, and then the rental company noted it. If we hadn't found it, it probably would have become our fault just like the front glass.
