8.0 Very Good
The people at Eurocar were great. The car was a powerless piece of junk. It got us around, barely.

Good. but I received a smaller car. a cheaper category for the same amount.

2.0 Poor
The car was filthy when collected. Not enough hire agents at the desk so the cue was huge. The agent spoke in a European foreign accent and his English was very poor. Tried to talk me through insurances and answer my questions but struggled to understand each other, so I gave up asking. Drop off took too long. Nearly missed my check in.

The pickup and drop off experience was less than optimal.

I’ve not got the car which was Woking Apple car play and I have to keep the phone on hand for maps.

2.0 Poor
The pick up was really a bad experience we had to wait for an hour and a half because the system at Europcar in Rome airport was not functioning properly and although I went and complained to the staff that I see people came after me and they got seen and me no, they investigated and said basically system isn’t functioning properly today but still served 3 customers before me after admitting it is the system fault, and I also had two young children who just landed from a 6am departure flight! I found this very inappropriate as if it’s system fault and you could see I was there for more than an hour I should be the priority. The car we have been given was a Peugeot not the jeep I booked and I did say I want a jeep but they said all out but when we went to the car park I found many jeeps parked brand new ones, the Peugeot we got is old and the battery was bad not keeping any charge I was stopping every 50 miles to charge the car!! I asked for a newer at the pick up because I knew electric cars has to have a great performing battery if I am doing long drives, this is isn’t my first time hiring an electric car from Europcar, last year got one in Barcelona and the experience was amazing. I won’t recommend the Roma airport desk and would not recommend Europcar in Italy too

I had paid for a dodge charger or similar and was given a Mercedes GLA250 instead. In no way shape or form similar to a dodge charger.

I reserved my car for 30 days from 10 am on day 1 to 10 am on day 30. When I went to the counter to pick up my car in Amsterdam at 11:20 am the counter agent asked “why are you late?” I told him I had reserved the car for 30 days and already paid for it, so I wasn’t “late.” He claimed that my car had now been rented to someone else, and I would have to pay about $200 more to get a different car. I argued with him that this wasn’t right and found it hard to believe that they had already rented “my car.” I asked to speak to his supervisor. He pointed to the clerk next to him. I told him I wasn’t going to pay the additional cost. We continued to argue. His other coworkers (3 of them) just watched the whole discussion. I think they were seeing if he’d be successful in “upcharging” me. The clerk finally relented and gave me my car. When I went inside to pick up the car there were dozens of cars sitting there. The clerk was very rude and unfriendly. I believe this clerk was dishonest and lied to me. He should be fired. I have no doubt they treat other customers like this and bully them into paying additional fees by being rude, unfriendly, and lying.

8.0 Very Good
Very disappointed by the lack of transparency when I made the booking with kayak. I wasn’t aware that I booked without insurance ! I therefore had to add extra insurance upon arrival ! I won’t use kayak anymore and will file a case for lack of transparency …
