The car was too old, but everything else was fine: 1. The bumper had been hit and was fixed with wire, making noise at high speeds which was worrying for safety; 2. The windows occasionally malfunctioned and required manually adjusting the rubber strip holding the glass.

The car pickup location at Antalya Airport is quite conspicuous, but the place where you handle the paperwork is far from where you pick up the car. There was an old man handling the paperwork who seemed to make the process difficult with many formalities. Luckily, we had a young guy assisting us, so there weren't too many unnecessary issues. Returning the car in Izmir was inconvenient, as you need to park the car at the entrance of the parking lot, find the car drop-off point in the underground parking by yourself, and get an entry card to enter. Everything was in Turkish, which made it incomprehensible, and no one answered the phone.

The pick-up and drop-off process was extremely fast.

The service attitude was very poor, and they forced us to buy extra insurance.

Antalya Airport has two terminals, one for domestic flights and the other for international. Apparently, we first went to the domestic terminal and found the window closed. There was a phone on the counter, and we had to call twice to get in touch with someone to pick us up. Eventually, we found out that the office was in the other terminal, which wasn't too far away. The rental process was quick; we provided our documents, signed the papers, and soon enough, we were in the parking lot getting our car. We had booked a BMW 5 series but got an X3 instead, which they said was in the same vehicle group. The X3 was a Middle Eastern version, almost the size of an X5 in our country. As our trip went on, we were grateful for having an SUV; it handled some roads much better.
