Based on 297 reviews analysed · Last updated · How scores work

The short version

Based on about 180 informative Google reviews (plus many star-only ratings) after excluding 3 about other branches or services, this off-site shuttle desk gets mostly positive feedback for fast handovers, new cars and quick deposit releases. Recurring complaints are deposit and card rules that lead to buying the desk's insurance, €20-35 out-of-hours fees, small damage and admin charges, and long waits at peak times. Web evidence is mostly undated or old and broadly mixed, so treat it only as weak support.

What travellers flag

Red flags (5)

  • Many reviews report that a debit or foreign-issued card was refused for the deposit, and that travellers then had to buy the desk's own cover (roughly €80-€270) or lose the rental. Several say this was not clear when booking, and a travel-comparison page confirms a credit card is needed for the deposit.rental24.co.uk
  • Out-of-hours fees come up repeatedly. About €20 is charged for returning the car before the 7:00 opening, and €30-35 for arriving after the 22:00 closing, including after flight delays. The company's own conditions confirm a €35 fee after 22:00, and a few late arrivals report getting no car and no refund.autosmenorca.com
  • Several reviews, five of them in the last year, report charges of about €150-€370 for small scratches, or questions about pre-existing damage at return. Some travellers say they avoided charges only because they had photos or video taken at pickup.
  • Small administrative charges, typically €25 (or €50 with a repair charge), were taken from cards weeks after return, in some cases for processing a traffic fine. Several reviewers say they received no explanation or no copy of the fine.
  • Four reviews from September to October 2026 report cars handed over visibly dirty inside. Some also report empty washer fluid or dirty baby seats, and a replacement car was also dirty.

Green flags (4)

  • Pickup and return are described as fast by many reviewers, often 5-10 minutes at the desk. The shuttle from the airport car park runs frequently and the drive is short.
  • Deposit and fuel holds are reported as released within minutes to a few days in about a dozen reviews. Some say the release happened before their flight.
  • Cars are widely described as new or low-mileage and well kept. Recent forum posts also describe the fleet as new and reasonably looked after.reddit.com
  • Several recent reviews report free upgrades to a larger category, or a different car when the booked one was unavailable, with no extra charge.
