HERAKLION AIRPORT CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Car was 20 years old and stank.

Friendly staff at both checkout and drop off. Car seats for children could be higher quality.

Swift response to queries.

The first car we got was in poor condition. it had a safety issue with steering. The car was NOT suppose to be available to customers at all.

The car pickup location is extremely hard to find, very hidden and far away. I have rented cars nearly ten times abroad, and this is the first time I encountered a rental company that requires extra attention to the car's interior cleanliness. If they find any trash, water stains, or sand on the seats, they will fine you 80 euros (and even suggest you pay ten euros to wash the car outside before returning it), which adds unnecessary inconvenience to travel. One female staff member had inconsistent car inspection standards, so make sure to take extra photos. The other male staff members were okay. The car was not rented with a full tank, making it difficult to control how much fuel to refill, which is very inconvenient. The rental company tries to scare you by saying local traffic accidents are common to sell insurance and pointed out that off-road scenarios are not covered by insurance. However, many beaches in Crete involve off-road driving; are we supposed to walk there to avoid dehydration!? I suggest avoiding this rental company.

We received a new Opel which was great. The representative told us to take pictures of any damage rather than come out and inspect it with us. There were no issues at drop off with the damage we saw at pickup. They charge an extra fee for offhour drop off at the airport despite that there were multiple representatives who were already at the counter when we arrived to drop off the car. We also had to wait for them to go to the parking lot and inspect the car.

Car was clean and reliable but reasonably old and had some damage to it

Easy to use and no issues

I've had to mark everything as 'Terrible' because, despite booking a VW Polo (automatic) or equivalent 9 months in advance of my arrival, no suitable car was available on the day. I was told that if I wanted an automatic car (which obviously I did as that's what I'd booked) I could either have a Smart car (wouldn't fit my luggage) or a Mercedes Vito (7 seater minibus). Obviously neither were suitable. I was told I'd have to wait until the next day for a suitable car - also not acceptable as my resort was a 1 hour drive from the airport. I was eventually offered a choice of 3 larger manual cars. Of course, I was forced to accept one - a battered up old Ford Focus. What a treat, thanks Keddy by Europcar. I don't drive a manual car at home so wasn't keen on doing so in a foreign country - hence I'd booked an auto. The company was not willing to compensate us financially as the Focus was in a higher bracket to a Polo. Hardly a benefit when you want a small car you can swing through the tight roads and park without fear. Needless to say I didn't get the use out of the car that I expected, as I wasn't comfortable driving it...

All was excellent.

All ok and easy.

Great from start to finish, flight was delayed we called to let them know, no issues upon collection. I liked the fact they also had staff outside who gave you the car and collected it back at the end of the rental so you dont have to mess about going back and forth to the desk. The car was also great, good spec.

Smooth process

Flight was delayed - I had to pick-up car next day due to working hours. Make sure you book car with 12 hours buffer to do not loose the reservation.

Very forthcoming and helpful.

La voiture n était pas conforme à la réservation. Un sur coût de location de 144€ lié au refus de l’agence de faire une empreinte sur ma carte Gold pour la caution, plus 350€ en cache pour la garantie. Prise en otage soit nous payons, soit nous payons l’annulation de réservation Garantie qui a été retenue lors de la restitution, suite à une éraflure sur le parc choc, quid de l’assurance ???

Mon parcours de location avec site était satisfaisant

The car was new and in good condition. We have got an upgrade since all cars from the requested category were gone. I understand Crete is dusty due to a lot road's being unpaved.But it was not very clean in general. We had to wait for more than an hour at the airport until someone from Centauro came with the shuttle van to takes us. The drop off was very quick with no issues. Refunds of fuel and deposit all ok.

Booking was very easy and I saved some money with the rebooking option. Great and well done Easyrentcars.com! Thanks!

Abby Car was great. East Rent was no help. Great car. Terrible communication between Easy and us. Did not know where Abby was located and had no help from Easy. Stood at Arrivals for an hour running around looking forvhelp.

Communicating by yext with Easy seemed loke talking to China. No local phone numbers given!

it was not the requested car, clutch worn out, the interior was badly damaged

None

Horrible old Fiat. I didn't want to drive the whole car any more than I had to

Great staff,very helpful and no pressure selling of additional insurance - made a nice change! Car was fine and damage was fully identified prior to start of hire. Nothing major just a number of dents which had no effect on its purpose. Would recommend.

All good. Platform was easy to use and provided access to a great rental.

We had booked an SUV but given a smaller car. Tried to swap it for what we had booked but were told we would have to pay an upgrade fee?! The car we were given was not the same class as the car we booked.

Awaiting QEEQ to assist me with a partial refund for my booking

la voiture ne correspondait pas a ma demande initiale c 'était un vieux vehicule avec 120000 kms la consommation était importante 10l au 100kms pour info j'avais demandé un vehicule categorie b et on m' a loué une vw passat break dans etat tres moyen… impossible de conduite la nuit car l'eclairage était nul...

The process was very quick, and there was no upselling of insurance.
