Picked up the car in Madrid; the originally booked Volkswagen Touran was replaced with a Fiat diesel car. I'm not sure if this was an upgrade. The diesel car is slower to accelerate. The pick-up location was decent. However, the drop-off in Granada was on a Sunday. It never occurred to me, nor did anyone inform me, that the store would be closed on Sundays. As a result, I couldn't find the drop-off location and there was no attendant. Fortunately, a very kind local helped me by calling the Madrid store to inquire about the drop-off details, then accompanied me to the designated parking area and showed me where to drop the keys into the box at the store entrance. Since they pre-charged me for a full tank of fuel at pick-up, I contacted the rental company's customer service multiple times via email. Luckily, when I returned to Shanghai, I saw that the bank only deducted the car rental fee.

The car had some passive damage without evidence, thankfully I bought full insurance. When returning the car, I filled out a report and explained the situation in English. The insurance covered it, so I didn't have to pay. The return process was very quick.

The rental process in Madrid was straightforward. In Barcelona, the return inspection was stricter, likely because the return and billing reviews are handled separately. The return team thoroughly checks the vehicle's exterior regardless of the insurance type the customer has purchased.

Very good, the handsome gentleman provided excellent service. We presented the rental confirmation, original driver's license, the translated version provided by QEEQ, and our passports. It only took a few minutes to get the car.

The store is located next to a busy street, you need to pick up the car from a nearby underground parking lot. They have staff to assist you, which is quite convenient.

Poor service. When we returned the car, we showed them the penalty ticket and asked if anything needed to be done. They said there was no problem, but later they brought up the ticket again and charged a service fee without helping to resolve it. I've never seen such a terrible company.

The contract wasn't in English, so we could only roughly understand it by looking at the prices. There were 4 of us, but they counted each of us as separate additions, so we ended up paying for insurance for 4 drivers. Overall, they didn’t explain things clearly.

We rented a Touran for four people because it has a large trunk that can hold four people's luggage. However, on the day of pickup, we were given a small BMW. The luggage barely fit, let alone any shopping! Poor experience.

The queue time was quite long, and efficiency was low. It took six hours for the tow truck to arrive after a flat tire, and then we had to queue for another three hours to get a car. It wasted an entire day for us.

The queue was extremely long, each person took 15 minutes to process and the staff were very impatient. I reserved a BMW X1 but got a Peugeot 2008 instead; they said it's the same class but which Chinese person would agree with that? I couldn't understand the deposit payment slip and they couldn't be bothered to explain.
