Italy: Rome - Florence - Venice - Dolomites - Germany: Neuschwanstein Castle - King's Lake - Munich

The car was very good, relatively new and there were no issues with its performance. During the rental process, they suggested we buy insurance, but we informed them that we had already purchased full coverage through QEEQ. Additionally, we had to wait for quite some time; the efficiency of the staff could be improved.

I picked up the car at Rome Fiumicino Airport. The directions from the arrival hall to the second floor were very clear, and the counter service was quick. Self-pickup car, a brand new hybrid with only 21 kilometers. Returning the car outside Florence Airport was initially challenging as I had trouble finding it. After asking for directions, I finally found it. It wasn’t far, but the route was somewhat complex. Car return involved a simple inspection and some questions. Not sure if there will be any issues later since the pre-authorization is still pending.

The parking location at the airport is on the top floor of a parking structure next to the terminal, which was hard to find. However, the environment inside was decent but the service was mediocre. I had already bought insurance online and they didn't ask much, probably due to the language barrier, they went ahead and added full insurance without my consent, costing me an extra 600 RMB. I tried to submit a complaint and get a refund from Hertz, but there was no resolution. Bad experience.

Extra charges from card after booking is end.

Hertz wouldn’t rent to me. I contacted them ahead of time to see if they would accept my temporary license and they said they would. Upon arrival they told me they wouldn’t accept it and so they couldn’t rent to me. I ended up renting from a different company.
