When I arrived at the store, they said I couldn’t rent a car with my driver's license. I have used my Chinese driver’s license, notarized Chinese document, and translation to rent cars abroad at least 10 times, including at least 4-5 times in Europe, and this is the first time I've heard that it can't be used. The staff at the car rental company spent half a day on the phone trying to sort it out, but it still didn't work. It wasted at least 2 hours. From daylight until it got dark, my wife and kids were waiting at the pier, it was a real hassle. Later, I asked at Enterprise and Hertz, and they both said it was fine to rent, but Europcar said it wasn't, which is absolutely terrible.

Overall experience was good, although it was weird that they didn't give us a car registration certificate. We intended to resolve it with the rental company but eventually forgot about it... The person who handed over the car seemed to be the manager, expressionless but the paperwork was thorough. Initially, we thought he was being a bit lazy during the inspection, but he ended up being very thorough (luckily). Returning the car took unexpectedly long, making us nervous because we had a flight to catch. Another staff member received the car, thoroughly inspected it twice, checking every part with his fingers and confirming with us twice. He even checked the interior and fuel tank. This was the first time I've encountered such thoroughness after renting cars four times and motorcycles three times abroad; either the staff was extremely diligent or trying to find reasons to charge us.

Nos cobraron un suplemento porque según ellos el lugar de alquiler estaba cerrado cuando se podrujo un pequeño retraso en el vuelo. Por otro lado, tuvimos que pagar un seguro extra para tener el coche 100% asegurado habiendolo pagando con queeq.com

Desastre total de coche. Lo cambié por otro que tampoco superó mis expectativas. Un mal coche puede aurrinar unas vacaciones. No se puede jugar con la seguridad del cliente bajo ningún concepto. Pensaba que una gran compañía no me daría problemas.

The car was not the VW Polo that we booked but apparently in the same class (Suzuki Swift). The staff were helpful and courteous. The car was in shocking condition. We had booked an automatic but they showed reluctance to give us one and kept suggesting a manual. We think it was because of the poor condition of the automatic vehicle. Brakes were poor and the body condition terrible. The car was in shocking condition and had not been repaired after several collisions. Bits were barely hanging in place on front and rear. The website showed a pickup at airport but there was no Europcar presence at the airport. They had to come from the Port, so we had to ring them and then wait. Better information is needed.
