The car rental site said they would be holding a sign at the airport exit 24/7, but when I arrived at 10 AM, I did not see any sign from the car rental company. After calling, it took another hour for someone to arrive. The staff were friendly and smiling throughout, but unfortunately, none of them spoke English.
On the last day, we were in a rush, but the tire pressure warning light came on and the brake pads were damaged. We had to spend several hours repairing the car at our own expense, causing us to miss Rabat. Since our flight was very early the next day, we decided to return the car in advance. We communicated with the rental company four to five hours in advance, but when we arrived at the agreed location at Casablanca Airport in the evening, we waited for over an hour and made several phone calls. They kept telling us to wait, and then finally said they weren't coming. We were told to just leave the car and keys in the parking lot. As a result, a few days after returning home, my credit card was charged 400 dollars. Despite numerous communications with the rental company, there was no resolution. This rental experience was truly disgusting. While there are good people in Morocco, it's still hard to avoid scammers. In such places, you must buy full insurance because the cars often have close to 100,000 kilometers. Apart from the annoying traffic police fines, I'm really not sure how many more traps the rental companies have in store.
The car we booked was totally different from the one we received! We booked a Tiguan but were given a Duster. When we asked the rental company's staff, they said they didn't even have a Tiguan! They just put a picture there to deceive people! On the day we booked, the Duster was only around 200 per day, while the Tiguan was over 600 per day. If we'd known we were getting a Duster, we wouldn't have booked it for that much more; we could have saved thousands. When picking up the car, they promised to switch the car and deliver it to the hotel, but when we called the next day, nothing happened! This rental company is terrible.
Couldn't reach them on the phone when picking up the car, had to ask the airport staff for help. I booked an automatic but was initially given a manual. I told them I couldn't drive a manual, so they made me wait for more than half an hour. When I got the car, it had no fuel, and they just told me there was a gas station 2 kilometers from the airport. The car was a bit dirty! On the second day, a wrench icon lit up on the dashboard. We had no idea what it meant and couldn't reach them by phone, so we had to ask locals for help. Luckily, it was just a maintenance reminder. On the third day, the engine started making noise. For safety, I wanted them to check if there was a branch in the city to help. They said they were too busy and suggested I return to the airport. Again, I had to ask locals for help. But these weren't the real issues! When we were returning the car, I told them at the hotel that we'd be at the airport in an hour and not to delay us as we had a flight to catch. They agreed, but after countless calls, you can imagine the frustration! In the end, we were on the plane and had to borrow a phone from a fellow passenger to call and ask if they were at the parking lot. They said they'd be there in 40 minutes… How did we handle it? We gave the airport police officer a tip of 100 RMB to return the car for us.
Had to look around and ask 3 to 4 people where they were located .
They were in the car park but there was no visible sign , maybe a sign 10/12 ft high up so people can see where to go .
Also drop off location was quite difficult to find .
Overall booking and car was good .
