FLORENCE CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Charged an additional fee on pickup that exceeded the company's prior notice.

I purchased full insurance at the store. The pick-up and drop-off processes were very smooth. The actual vehicle was an MG HS, but since this model wasn't one of the options, I randomly chose another. The car was relatively new.

It's alright, the staff has a good attitude. There are some routine sales pitches, but that's understandable. They mentioned providing an Audi A6 wagon but gave us a Ford Kuga instead, which is quite different. However, since places in Italy are small and compact cars are easier to park, it's acceptable.

The process of picking up and returning the car was very smooth. Returning the car was almost instant. I received the return inspection report just as I was stepping onto the train station escalator. Europcar is trustworthy.

No upselling, good service attitude, and quick response.

Overall, AVIS has relatively low efficiency. The wait time for picking up the car was long. When inquiring about how to return the key, I was instructed to use a keybox for self-service drop-off, but I was later charged a late return fee. The store's phone was unreachable. The actual car model provided was not very satisfactory, with poor handling.

Overall good. The car was very new, with just over 7000 km mileage. It is rear-wheel drive, which sometimes lacked power when driving in the Tuscan countryside, especially on gravel roads or uphill dirt roads.

The entire process, from booking to providing the international driving permit, picking up the car, and returning it, was very smooth. Thanks to the platform!

Good service, very considerate.

Vehicle pickup and drop-off were both handled at the Hertz store, and they provided an upgraded vehicle, which was excellent. The car was in great condition. The service was straightforward without any upselling or unnecessary chatter. Highly recommended.

There were no issues with picking up or using the car. I rented it for just one day, so I didn't purchase their insurance and had a €1200 deposit held. The ridiculous part happened a day after returning the car when €98 was deducted from the deposit. I contacted customer service, and they explained it was a cleaning fee. When I returned the car, it was midday, and the staff mentioned it was the last shuttle before their break, so they rushed us off without properly inspecting the car. I then asked customer service for evidence of the car being dirty since we only rented it for a day, didn't drive through muddy areas, and absolutely didn't smoke or anything like that. It couldn't have been so dirty to warrant a €98 cleaning fee. The photos they eventually provided showed two small spots on the back seat, which made no sense because the two of us never even used the back seat. Finally, after almost two weeks of appealing to the Zuzuche (Car Rental Platform) customer service, they only refunded half of the charge. This whole experience was ridiculous. Here's a tip for everyone: make sure to inspect the car in person and do some cleaning before returning it.

The interior and exterior of the car were not clean, with many stains and water marks. The return location address was unclear, requiring significant preparation beforehand.

Fabio was patient and provided excellent service.

Pretty good

A bit slow and tries to upsell, but not pushy.

An additional insurance charge was added during pickup. Used the car for three days without any issues, but the central display screen suddenly stopped working during return, almost causing a dispute. After restarting the vehicle a few times, it started working again.

The insurance purchased through the platform is completely a waste of money. At the rental company, you have to buy their insurance again. If you don't buy their full coverage, they won't process the rental for you.

Very good

Overall, very satisfied. However, I recommend purchasing full insurance at the store. They can't check the online insurance to confirm whether we bought it or not, so they will still ask about it in-store. Buying full insurance directly in-store also puts them at ease when returning the car.

Overall satisfied, but it's a pity there are no smaller cars.
