The line was long, and the staff at the counter were slow. The pickup location was far from the counter. It was raining that day, and we had to walk a long distance. They finally gave us a downgraded small car, which felt overpriced. We ended up being 40 minutes late for the meeting with the client. This car rental company is really unreliable.

Picked up the car at Milan Central Station. The process was fairly efficient, and they did try to sell me additional insurance. However, since I had already purchased full coverage, the staff didn't push it further. The car pick-up location was about a 5-minute walk from where the paperwork was done, but it was easy to find with the map they provided. I had booked a Toyota Yaris Hybrid and the pick-up went smoothly, but the engine fault warning appeared when I reached Venice. Had to switch the car at Venice Airport to a Ford SUV, and the staff were very apologetic and didn't charge any fees. Later, when we drove to Rome, the car indicated it needed an oil change. As we were two women and didn't know how to handle it, we tried two gas stations but couldn't get any engine oil. So, we drove to the Rome train station hoping the rental office would change the oil but they just gave us another car without any extra charges. Finally, we returned the car in Milan and the staff checked everything, saying it was all okay. We thought the rental experience ended smoothly. However, two days later, we received an email from the company claiming there was damage to the windshield and we were charged 1080 euros. Despite multiple emails, they still charged my credit card. Thankfully, with full insurance, we eventually got reimbursed through the rental platform. In summary, smaller rental companies can be unreliable, as I’ve never faced so many issues with international chains before. And always buy full insurance!

Do not choose this company. They didn't provide the reserved vehicle and didn't accept the embassy-certified driver's license. They accused us of driving without a license and forced us to buy insurance. They also did not recognize the insurance provided by the car rental platform and required a deposit of 1800 euros with two credit cards in the renter's name.

Friends, be sure to avoid this company! Here's my personal experience. I have driven in Europe and the US before without any issues, but this was my first time renting a car in Italy. I took dozens of photos and videos of the car during pickup. When returning the car, the staff inspected it thoroughly and found a dent underneath the car, claiming it needed to be compensated. I couldn't find that angle in any of my photos or videos, and the undamaged photos they provided could not confirm the date. Needless to say, despite the negotiations, the outcome was predictable. Fortunately, I had full insurance and did not suffer any financial loss. However, I can't help but wonder if this behavior is targeted at Chinese customers. It's disheartening, and my complaint emails to the company led nowhere. A few years ago, full insurance was not this expensive, but now it is almost as costly as the rental itself. Such practices contribute to the rising costs for both rental companies and users. In the end, it is us who pay the price. Based on my personal experience, I advise everyone to steer clear of such companies.
