I took a taxi to get there, and there were a lot of people in line. There were many service counters, but I waited for an hour to get the car. The service attitude was good. The first car had an issue with the tire, and it was replaced immediately after I pointed it out.
I chose the Toyota Corolla Hybrid because I knew fuel prices in Europe are high at 14 yuan per liter, and this car uses only 5 liters per 100 kilometers. I had rented this car before and was familiar with it. Upon reaching the store, after confirming the contract and paying the deposit, the staff informed me that they didn't have this model available. Instead, they offered me a large diesel car, which I refused. They told me that they don't have any Toyota cars at all. I asked why they made me sign the contract and charged me, only to give me a Hyundai Jeep with a 2.0-liter engine, which I didn't want. For me and my spouse, a 1.6-liter car is more than enough. Larger engines consume more fuel, and parking spaces in Europe are small. If it weren't for the hybrid, I wouldn't have considered this rental company. I wanted to cancel the order. After calling the rental company, they told me that the Jeep was also a hybrid and that they had no other cars available. I insisted that a comparable car should be hybrid-to-hybrid, same engine size. This company was terrible. The staff processing the rental left us at the counter and went to eat as soon as it hit 6 PM. Later, I had to confirm with the store manager and the rental company that the Jeep was indeed a hybrid, and I had no choice but to accept it. Not buying insurance required a 2600-euro deposit. Returning the car was quick; they had separate counters and staff for rental and return, which was quite efficient. After getting the return confirmation, I asked about the 2600-euro deposit. They said it would be refunded immediately, but I guess it will take 30 days.
Waited over two hours for the car. The car was in poor condition with an engine noise and under-inflated tires. Almost the entire car had scratches and dents. They tried to charge me a fine for a missing air pump during the return. They refuse to address any issues until you're almost out of time for your flight.
The company's staff threatened me into buying their insurance by saying they wouldn't give me the car otherwise. They claimed that the insurance provided by the rental company is not assurance but merely protection. I couldn't discuss this legal issue with the staff, so I had to purchase their insurance for 16.5 euros per day.
It's been a long time since I returned the car, and I still haven't received an explanation from customer service about the 66 euros charge! Additionally, the large deposit has yet to be refunded, seriously impacting my subsequent expenditures. Poor service.
