Upgraded but was it actually a good deal?

The store staff had a very good attitude.

Always use, very satisfied

The car pickup point at Paris Montparnasse is a bit tricky for those unfamiliar with the area because there are no signs or indicators on the street. You need to go down to the metro station parking area to find the rental company's office, which is easily noticeable. The staff at the office are very friendly and will explain the specifics of renting, such as which fuel to use and the extra charges for late returns. Overall, very professional. Returning the car in Lyon was relatively smooth, with minor hiccups in locating the parking lot. After initially parking in an adjacent lot, I walked to find the exact location. The return process was quick. Overall, I would rent from Eurocar again. Additionally, I had booked a Citroen C3 but was given a spacious Fiat SUV at pickup. The reverse gear on the Fiat manual transmission requires lifting a ring on the gear lever before shifting into first gear. Since I hadn't driven a Fiat before, I asked a passing driver for help. I received a lot of friendly assistance along the way, such as help with refueling, paying highway tolls, and parking on the roadside.

Service du personnel ne nous a pas prévenus de dommages sur la voiture. il ne nous a pas expliqué comment conduire la voiture (c'était une voiture hybride). La voiture n'était pas au bon endroit qu'on nous avait dit et il n'y avait personne à qui demander. Nous avons perdu trop de temps et nous avons été stressés. Je pense que quelqu'un aurait dû nous accompagner pour voir si tout allait bien pour la voiture.

I loved how small yet zippy it was. The only problem was the battery died on one day and while the service was super polite, I was on hold for a VERY long time, eating up a whole afternoon. Part of this was my fault. I gave them the wrong [an old] French phone number. I had to call back to fix the error and then I was listening to some pretty terrible muzak for a looooong time. Once I connected there seemed to be some confusion: I was not in the system. It didn't occur to the man that I hadn't yet even been put in the queue. Once that was cleared up it wasn't long before a serviceman helped with boosting the car. A quick tutorial on the lights, etc, when I picked the vehicle up, might have [I'm not sure why the batter died, neither was the serviceman] avoided the whole scenario. Fortunately, I didn't have a train to catch that day and it just pushed back a trip to the grocery store.
