The service attitude was great. I was a bit worried before due to many negative reviews online, but the staff was friendly and helpful throughout the process. They assisted me with various issues and even offered some travel advice. Quite nice!
Arrived at the counter at 8 AM, but was forced to wait until 11:30 AM to get a severely damaged van that could barely run. Finally left the lot at noon.
The front desk service was excellent, no upselling, and I got a Mercedes. Because I had a lot of luggage, the staff kept helping me find a car with a large trunk and finally provided a brand new CUPRA with just 15,800 km.
We had some trouble communicating, but after contacting the QEEQ platform hotline and confirming no additional insurance was needed, we signed the contract and picked up the car. Overall, the service attitude at the store was good and patient. The staff providing the handover service later were very satisfactory in terms of attitude, language, and efficiency.
This rental company seems to be a local Italian company, and their prices are cheaper compared to other rental companies. The pickup and drop-off locations are near the big companies' locations. However, the car pickup point is not at the store, and you need to take a shuttle bus which takes some time. You don't have to pick up the car with a full tank of gas or return it with one. The car inspection is also quite fast.
Friends, be sure to avoid this company! Here's my personal experience. I have driven in Europe and the US before without any issues, but this was my first time renting a car in Italy. I took dozens of photos and videos of the car during pickup. When returning the car, the staff inspected it thoroughly and found a dent underneath the car, claiming it needed to be compensated. I couldn't find that angle in any of my photos or videos, and the undamaged photos they provided could not confirm the date. Needless to say, despite the negotiations, the outcome was predictable.
Fortunately, I had full insurance and did not suffer any financial loss. However, I can't help but wonder if this behavior is targeted at Chinese customers. It's disheartening, and my complaint emails to the company led nowhere. A few years ago, full insurance was not this expensive, but now it is almost as costly as the rental itself. Such practices contribute to the rising costs for both rental companies and users. In the end, it is us who pay the price. Based on my personal experience, I advise everyone to steer clear of such companies.
“Got the car but had to pay significantly more to get it. Overall a poor experience.”
About NOLEGGIARE:8.0/10
Long wait time at Milano Centrale desk with only one staff member at a busy time. Had to leave and come back as didn't accept debit card or Amex credit card. Vehicle was no longer available by the time I returned and had to wait for several hours for another vehicle to return. Required €1,800 deposit for vehicle, which Qeeq didn't communicate clearly on booking emails. As I didn't have this amount available on my card I was forced to buy extra insurance from Noleggiare that I didn't need, amounting to almost €400 over the booking period. During booking, had to ring the Milano Centrale office 15 times to confirm I could drop the vehicle back later than the booking time. Drop off location was correct on the Noleggiare invoice, but incorrect on the Qeeq email and voucher. All in all a subpar experience and unlikely I would book again with Noleggiare, and would expect Qeeq to improve their communication on deposits required significantly.

Very satisfied! The refund after returning the car was very quick. Remember to take a thorough video of the whole car when picking it up. The deposit was also returned swiftly!
This was the worst car rental experience ever. I paid in full, but because I arrived an hour and 40 minutes late, I couldn't pick up the car (although there was indeed a delay note in the order that I didn't read carefully at the time, but considering it was an international flight, immigration, and our luggage was damaged, being slightly late is quite normal. I've rented cars abroad many times; are New Zealand and Australia less developed than Italy? Is it only Italians who are punctual? I've never had this situation before. The most important thing is that the rental company initially said I was late by two hours and my order was canceled; when I argued that it wasn't two hours and I had been waiting in line for over ten minutes, they quickly changed their story to say it was between one to two hours). Even after coordination from the platform, I could only pick up the car the next morning, meaning I lost a day's use of the car, and the cost of taking six people back and forth to the airport had to be covered by myself.
In addition to credit and debit cards, you can now pay for online car rentals with cryptocurrency! Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) are accepted. Curious about how long a Bitcoin transaction takes or how to pay with Bitcoin? Read our FAQs for more details.

The vehicle was not clean when picked up. The booked car was not the same model when picked up.
