I initially thought renting a car in Italy would be complicated. But Hertz made it very simple. When asked if I needed additional insurance, I declined and they didn’t push it further. Driving in Italian cities can be challenging as people drive fast and don’t follow rules. However, I enjoyed driving on Italian highways; everyone drives fast but follows the rules, similar to Northern Europe.

Very satisfied

Extremely inefficient, it took almost an hour to get the car. They kept trying to upsell model upgrades and additional charges for swapping between two cars (we rented two cars). European and American customers seemed to go through much faster.

The service attitude was average. They insisted we rent snow chains, which added 60 euros to the total cost. They scared us by saying we would be fined if caught by the police without them. When we wanted to store our luggage for a few hours when returning the car, they refused.

Your system didn't inform Hertz about the last minute price reduction, so it took almost an hour to get the right price.
