The Avis branches at Rome Airport in Italy and Madrid Airport in Spain provided excellent service. The staff were enthusiastic and attentive, the pick-up and drop-off process was convenient and quick, and there were no hidden charges. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. Five stars!

Very dissatisfied. The original vehicle was unavailable, and I had to either downgrade, pay more for an upgrade, or cancel the order.

There was no Citroën at the airport, so we were given a larger Volkswagen Multivan for the same price. Fortunately, I'm an experienced driver, so it was no problem.

The staff at the Rome airport counter spoke very poor English, hardly understandable. They kept pushing for full insurance, and seemed very displeased when we declined. They gave us a subpar car despite our large luggage. At the parking lot counter, they kept stalling and refusing to change the car, only offering a FIAT500 convertible, which was a struggle to fit our luggage into. I was quite dissatisfied with the service attitude of the Rome airport staff, but to avoid affecting our itinerary, I didn't argue further.

Despite booking over a week previously so that Avis would have plenty of time to set things up, when we arrived they did not have our car ready (Merc E Class) and did not have anything comparable to offer. After calling their associates, the only available alternatives were a monstrous Merc G Wagon (imagine trying to park that in the land of the Fiat 500) for more money, or a BMW 3 Series Touring. We took the BMW. Then we were informed that the insurance that we'd already paid for via Easyrentcars would not offer adequate cover, and for fully comprehensive cover we had to book with Avis. Given that we'd already had a car damaged in a car park in Italy on a previous trip, we felt that we had no option but to comply with Avis' advice.
