300 euros for 3 days of insurance coverage only for collision damage towards the car? not even personal insurance or insurance to pay for the damage of another car? I'm never renting here again that's for sure. And I will make sure nobody I know does it neither. It was for a Volvo, not BMW or Mercedes, WTF

Office is far from main terminal, a longer than expected walk. Staff were ok but the auto was not as expected from booking photos. The first auto had a problem, had to be returned, and had to wait almost an hour to get the replacement vehicle

Mediocre|Jul 2022

La experiencia para recoger el coche pésima. Pusieron muchos problemas. Había seleccionado un modelo grande y no informaron que hacían falta 2 tarjetas de crédito en vez de una como ponía en la descripción lo que me parece no solo un abuso sino una estafa. Me quedé colgada y me ofrecieron otro vehículo mas pequeño y al no tener mas tiempo tuve que aceptar. Alquile un coche de 5 plazas grande y me dieron uno de 4 plazas, lo que supuso que un compañero viajase incómodo mas de cinco horas. Por no hablar que si te pasas 2 horas te cobran el dia entero, en vez de las horas extra aunque avises con antelación. Un abuso, caro y mal gestionado.

The staff attention at pick up was wonderful, and general product offered was very good.

The Oil lamp indicadator came on a few hours into our trip. Had the oil checked and it was running very low so I had to spend about 28 euros fixing that.

I rented car in spain,after explaining to customer service person that I would be doing quite a bit of driving she suggested an upgrade. I got a larger car that used diesel,a bit less expensive and better mileage.It worked out better for us,since 3 of us were traveling and all suitcases were able to fit in trunk.Happy with my rental.

Hi, I went to Madrid Airport to pick up my car with the price of 140 EUR and an insurance that I already paid for 55$. But when I went to the agent desk, he told me that the insurance is fake and that I have to pay almost 450 EUR for both car rent and insurance which was completely outrageous. In the end, I had to cancel my booking. Please fix this or terminate your contract with companies like Thrifty which will only bring a bad name to your reputation.

car was fine for our purposes & good on mileage

Really hard sell trying to get us to take the insurance on the car, when we refused (we already purchased insurance) the service became surly anf unfriendly.

Pick up was excellent. Our flight had been delayed but all went well. The staff in Madrid was friendly and helpful. The drop off was a little rough as they seem to have been understaffed, we had to wait quite a while to drop off the car. Fortunately we weren't running for our flight, but we observed other customers who were very nervous about catching their flights. They need to separate the pick-up and drop-off counters as many other rental companies do. The staff was friendly even under pressure.

Sales used tactics to make changes to contract and increased the rate and when I said I want my original contract as is. They said they could not reverse the charges Also Claiming they didn't have the car we booked Cars were poorly maintained with previous accidents. And cleaned..I had to have them change the car It wasa horrible experience..I usually rent Hertz much higher standards and respects

The staff was firiendly and helpful.

It doesn't specify the rental is inside the building behind the train station. Google Takes you across to some other streets. Very vague location. Also when you get inside there's no Dollar sign. Only after I called I realized it's inside the Hertz office. There you can see 2 tiny Dollar signs.

They will look at your car with magnifying glasses when returning the car. So report every dent and scratch no mater how small is it when picking the car. In my case thy charge me $90 for a missing radio antenna. I didn't even think cars even has one in modern times.

They gave away my reservation for an automatic car in Europe because I was more than 2 hours late, something they did NOT MENTION IN ANY COMMUNICATIONS.
