Service staff recommended purchasing unnecessary products

The store was terrible; they seemed to give Chinese customers a hard time. The Chinese person in front of me also had to pay extra. They refused to accept Chinese translations, KIDA international driving permits, and the international permits provided by the rental platform. It wasn't an issue with the translations but rather their way of forcing you to buy full insurance. If the license was not valid, they shouldn't have rented the car to us. However, they required us to buy insurance after renting the car, indicating that they lure customers with low car prices on the website and create various issues during pickup. I often rent cars with an international license in Europe and the US without problems. In Germany, I've never had issues with other companies, but this store caused trouble the first time I tried to rent.

They charged an extra €20 a day for using a MasterCard with UnionPay, which is unfair! Last year, the same card was not required to pay extra.

The staff was very enthusiastic and patient in explaining. Although there was no Chinese service, the lady at the counter tried her best to explain in a way that even my poor English could understand the gist. However, I was slightly dissatisfied because the car I selected was not available, and I was given a car of a lower grade.

The Mercedes Viano we originally requested was swapped for a Volkswagen Multivan. It drives like a bus, incredibly noisy and has horrible sound insulation! It's extremely uncomfortable to sit in. The front layout is like a truck with a two-seater next to the driver's seat, and the rear seats cannot be adjusted. There's no storage space at all, and we couldn’t even figure out where to put a cup of water. They claimed it was an upgrade, which is ridiculous! I will never use this rental company again. We spent over 10,000 on this trip and were expecting the comfort of a Mercedes, but ended up with nothing! Terrible!
