The attitude was very poor. They did not have the automatic car we reserved, only a manual one. I booked the car six months in advance. They were unapologetic about the lack of cars. We waited for three hours, and they still couldn't confirm if a car was available. Very disappointing.
The rental company charged an extra 250 euros without proper explanation. After contacting customer service, they canceled over 100 euros but still charged an extra 100 euros. It has been over ten days, and I still don’t know the reason for the extra charge. They provided a Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross, which may or may not be in the same category as I booked, but it handled poorly. It felt unstable at high speeds, had very high fuel consumption (11-12 L/100km on the highway), and had significant wind noise. The fuel gauge was also faulty; it showed full after an hour and a half of driving, but then dropped quickly, barely lasting an hour on half a tank. Twice, I almost didn't make it to a gas station on mountain roads.
Alamo and Enterprise share the same location, but in Frankfurt, their office is separate from other rental companies, which took some time to find. The front desk service was good, fast, and convenient; the process was simple. However, the staff tried to sell me damage insurance for damages under 1000 euros twice, despite me telling them I had already purchased insurance through another platform. They insisted they were not aware of it and made me sign a waiver. They offered me a Kia instead of the reserved car. After multiple discussions, they said it was the only model available and since I had to drive over 200 kilometers at night to another city, I had no choice. The car was new with only about 200 kilometers on the odometer.
We weren't told where to drop off the car so assumed it was where we had picked it up from. However when we got there we were told we should have seen a big sign telling us where to drop it off but we hadn't seen it. It also wasn't very clear as to what fuel the car took, there was no indication on the fuel cap and it wasn't obvious on the paperwork.
