Germany Munich - Austria Wels - Germany Munich

I had reserved a Volvo V40, but upon arrival, I was informed that it was unavailable and was offered a Ford instead. I assumed it would be a Ford Focus of the same grade, but after completing the paperwork and going to the parking lot, I discovered it was a smaller class car. Moreover, there were no staff members at the parking lot, and it was self-service pickup. This is clearly misleading and deceitful. If you don't have the specified model, you shouldn't charge for it. I felt very disappointed. I was carrying large luggage and didn't want to go back to discuss switching cars.

Did not specify the required gasoline type, leading to unnecessary detours.

This was the worst car rental experience I've had in many years. They gave us a car that already had scratches. Thankfully, we had full insurance and took photos when we picked up the car. We returned the car in Salzburg, and the rental company staff there asked for a damage report from when we rented the car. No one had given us or reminded us to take such a report earlier, but they said it was fine since we had full insurance and we wouldn't need to pay extra. In the end, we found out they charged us an additional 140 euros, and we have no idea what for. We contacted the rental car service to inquire. It's been over a week now, and we still haven't received a response. Very dissatisfied.

The company is very professional and truly deserving of being a world-class car rental company. It was easy to find following the instructions after leaving the airport. Since we crossed the border into Italy, they replaced the Mercedes with a 9-seater Ford. The only drawback was the requirement to purchase comprehensive insurance (originally insurance was included, but it might have been invalidated by crossing the border). The original 10-day rental was 641 euros, but it totaled 1099 euros in the end, which is a bit pricey.

The return location details are unclear, especially for out-of-town returns. It's best to ask for clarification when renting the car.
