The counter staff sold us and upgraded our booking to a "more econonical" car for an extra 6€ per day. The car we got was new, bigger and spacier, but far from economical. We drove around 450km and we needed to tank 51l of petrol. That is 11,33l fuel consumption per 100km. We felt mislead by the counter staff. Moreover, the car had very bad sound insulation. On an open highway, it was so loud inside the car that we couldn't talk to normally each other or listen clearly to the radio. Lastly, the garage for drop-off is very dirty and there is no elevator to go back to ground level (from -4 level). We had to take dirty stairs with insufficient lighting where homeless people sleep in order to get out of the garage building. Not a very pleasant experience.

The staff was very professional and patient. We purchased additional insurance locally at a fair price with no rip-offs. They provided us with a brand new car with over 2000 kilometers on it, very satisfied!

Pretty good overall. I've rented several times, so I know how to find it easily now. The first time was quite troublesome, though. I had to ask people to find it.
