Based on 272 reviews analysed · Last updated · How scores work

The short version

Based on about 270 recent Google reviews after excluding 28 (staff-praise and one duplicate), the picture is polarised. Most reviews are short 5-star comments praising friendly, quick handovers and clean cars, but roughly 1 in 13 reports strong pressure to buy the desk's own cover, and there are repeated refusals over how the name appears on the credit card plus some disputed damage charges. Web evidence (Tripadvisor, Reddit, consumer sites) is mostly negative but partly undated and sometimes covers other branches; travellers should check card-name rules, take their own inspection photos and compare the cost of cover before booking.

What travellers flag

Red flags (5)

  • About 21 recent reviews report strong pressure at the counter to buy the desk's own insurance, often after the traveller had already bought full cover through a broker or airline, sometimes with warnings of large charges for minor scratches. Several web sources describe the same pattern.reddit.comtripadvisor.comautoeurope.eu
  • At least 6 reviews from the last three weeks describe pick-up refused because the credit card shows only an initial or abbreviated first name, or is not in the driver's name. The reviewers say they were then offered the desk's costly cover as the way to still get the car, and some left without a car or refund. Tripadvisor reports from 2026 describe the same card issue.tripadvisor.comtripadvisor.co.uk
  • Several recent reviews report attempts to charge for damage the traveller says was already on the car, or penalties described as excessive. One reviewer reports a card debit for a border fee that the bank later reversed. Another had to rely on their own video to show a dent pre-existed. Web reports describe similar charges.tripadvisor.comtripadvisor.com
  • Around 8 recent reviews report scratched, worn or high-mileage cars. Travellers also say the self-service inspection (20-25 photos uploaded on their own phone) is slow and needs good mobile data, so they must document existing damage themselves.tripadvisor.com
  • Several reviews report extra charges not clear at booking (toll-device or cross-border fees, a cover upgrade priced above the whole rental), a fuel policy that is not full-to-full, and a car category swapped at pick-up.

Green flags (5)

  • The large majority of recent reviews are 5-star, many describing friendly staff and a quick, simple check-in and return.trustpilot.com
