Across Western Germany by Car: Disappointed with Local Attitudes

Not many people picking up cars

Entered the country at 6 am, had breakfast and went to pick up the car a little after 6. No need to queue, there was no one at the Hertz counter (the rental confirmation stated that Hertz counter service time is 6:00-23:59). A guy from a neighboring counter who was wearing another company's vest came to assist. Since there was no need to queue, I had no complaints.

Munich branch is large and professional. Even though the car had a small issue, it was replaced and upgraded to a better model. Great service.

The condition of the company's cars is excellent, but the staff at the store kept pushing insurance and other vehicle options, which was quite annoying.

Hertz at Munich Airport has many customers picking up cars, but the staff is very friendly and does not aggressively upsell. They upgraded us for free to a Volvo XC90 diesel, which has plenty of space. If you only have two pieces of luggage, it can seat seven people. It comes with a built-in navigation system with both Chinese and English subtitles; the English version is more accurate and has a wider search range. The car was brand new with excellent performance, providing a superb driving experience.
