We booked a 9-seat automatic Mercedes Vito, but when we arrived, the staff told us they only had a 9-seat manual Volkswagen or Opel, and the price remained the same. We had no choice but to downgrade from automatic to manual, and there was no compensation. Finally, when returning the vehicle, they charged us an extra 20 euros for a different drop-off location.

The staff was very kind and humorous. He understood our language limitations well. Returning the car was very convenient; we just handed the key to the receptionist and confirmed the fuel tank was full.

I booked an Audi A4 wagon, but they gave me a Mercedes E220 wagon instead. Very satisfied! Picking up the car was just a matter of completing the paperwork at the counter and following the staff's instructions to get the car myself. Returning the car was even simpler: I handed over the keys at the counter, was asked if the tank was full, and was told everything was fine without them even checking the car. I picked up the car 2 hours early and returned it 1 hour late. No problem. Germans are so trusting and accommodating. Highly commendable!

Europe's largest company, originally French, but later acquired by Germany. I asked a girl from Airbnb, she said this company is reliable. However, I rented a French car in Germany, which was a bit disappointing. But the car was fully equipped, even with a side assist feature. In our country, such features would cost at least 350,000. Cars are really cheap abroad.

I rented from Europcar and my friend rented from AVIS. At Europcar, there were staff at both the pickup and drop-off points in the parking lot. However, at my friend's rental company, sometimes there were staff and sometimes not. The guy at Europcar in Frankfurt train station was great, very enthusiastic, and did not try to up-sell anything.

Due to flight issues, I didn't arrive on time and the reserved car was no longer available. I had to switch to a compact model or pay extra.

There was only one person on duty, waited for half an hour. The parking spot number for pickup was incorrect, and there was no one around to ask. No one to explain the car features.

Overall service was okay, but there was a tire burst and had to exchange the car. The roadside assistance was very slow, and a model worth thousands was taken by the staff from the car. It wasn't placed in lost and found even though it was just a few hours. Sigh.

1. Due to a train delay, I called the rental company in advance to confirm a 10-minute delay, expecting to pick up the car by 19:10. I arrived at the shop at 19:07, but the staff had already left, so I could only pick up the car the next day. 2. I booked a premium wagon, but was given a sedan instead.
