so much better than expected!
I am not very experienced in car renting - the few times I did i had very unpleasant situations with hidden fees, small disclaimers and overall sneakiness. Until I decided to go with rent from locals, as recommended by a colleague. And - whew! It's so easy, human, friendly. You guys have taken care of me like I was a VIP, answered all the questions, made fantastic recommendations for the trip (thanks again!) and overall made this previously stressful errand so easy. Wish it worked like that everywhere. Thanks!
Also, the drive in the car was sooo smooth! I would give you 6 stars if it was possible ;)

The car came back clean but the 5 euro…
The car came back clean but the 5 euro cleaning fee was still taken, the key didn't work remotely. The rest of experience was pretty good.
