Frankfurt - Bonn - Nurburgring - Stuttgart - Munich - Dresden

Good attitude, actively coordinated.

Not bad

The car rental guy was quite indifferent. First-time renters might find it quite challenging.

Very good! The staff were very enthusiastic and the car was great.

The service at the Frankfurt Airport branch in Germany was just average. When picking up the car, a hold was placed for a full tank of fuel. I booked a Benz C but received a Jaguar X20d diesel car instead. The car felt a bit small, especially the trunk, but the diesel engine did reduce travel costs. I was a bit late returning the car, having mistakenly entered the underground parking and returning it just over ten minutes late. I was charged an extra day because I picked up the car slightly early, despite confirming with the staff that I could wait until 9 AM to collect it. They agreed, but still charged according to the scheduled time. During the pickup, I noticed minor paint scratches and discussed them with the staff, so the actual pickup time was around 9:30 AM, but I didn't ask them to reprint the pickup contract. In the end, I had to negotiate with the manager at the branch, explaining the situation, and they ended up charging me a little under 15 Euros. Typical Germans, very rigid! While they weren't wrong and had a strong sense of contract, their service awareness was practically non-existent!
