The service attitude was extremely poor, and the waiting time was very long. The staff were slow and inefficient. When returning the car, I waited for over half an hour and no one came to assist. When I communicated with the staff that I had to catch a flight and hoped for quicker service, they rudely told me that missing my flight was my problem and that I should have allocated enough time for returning the car. Come on, I already waited for more than half an hour, how much more time is considered sufficient? This was the worst car rental experience I've had overseas, bar none.
Additionally, when I picked up the car, there were long scratches and dents. When I mentioned the condition of the vehicle, the staff said it didn't matter. I was a bit careless and didn't document it, but it turned out the rental company didn't note it either. When I returned the car, they claimed the car body was damaged. Fortunately, I had purchased full insurance, and when they checked my insurance details, they stopped talking. Otherwise, I likely would have had to argue endlessly. In short, I highly do not recommend this car rental company!
Regarding insurance: although this rental company has cheap rental fees, buying full insurance on site is twice the price compared to buying it online. I didn't buy insurance online, which turned out to be a costly mistake.
I was not happy with the return process. Maybe it’s because I have an Italian driver’s license, but picking up the car wasn’t an issue. Just firmly refuse when they try to push their insurance, and make sure your credit card has a chip. One time I didn’t have a chipped card, and they forced me to buy their insurance. Previously, returning the car at their location had always been smooth, but this time it made me furious! The car was parked under a tree, so there were some bird droppings and leaves on it. The inspector kept saying 'too dirty, too dirty!' and told me I had to pay a cleaning fee! I asked if 5 euros would be enough, and he said it would definitely be more. I was so angry right then! I said, isn’t it normal for the car to get dirty when driving? Don’t you clean it before handing it over to the next customer? He pointed to the dust on the car and said that kind of dirt was acceptable. I was so frustrated! Then I took out a bottle of leftover mineral water, poured it on the car, and used some tissues to wipe it! Even the shuttle bus driver nearby couldn’t stand it. After I wiped it twice, the inspector finally said 'va bene, va bene,' meaning it was fine. I just wanted to write this to remind everyone: pay for what you’re supposed to, but don’t give them a cent more than necessary!
Dealing with the accident was very painful. When we called, they asked us to call road assistance, but the customer service was in Italian. Being stranded in the middle of nowhere was really frustrating.
