Very satisfied, highly recommend this rental company. The staff are patient, and returning the car was very convenient (though this might be because we purchased full insurance).

Overall, pretty good. The car provided was a Ford Kuga hybrid, drove 700 kilometers, fuel consumption estimated at 6 liters per 100 kilometers. However, shortly after picking up the car, a low tire pressure warning for the front right tire popped up, though the actual readings matched the other tires. The warning light also turned on, which made me worry there might be issues when returning the car. Fortunately, nothing was mentioned afterward.

Excellent! I booked a Corsa but received a VW SUV T-Cross. The car was in great condition. The inspector pointed out a scratch on the right side during the check-out process. No insurance upselling, and the deposit was only one euro cent. The return inspection was also efficient and quick, unlike Noleggiare where they check even the vehicle undercarriage.

No upselling, received a quick pass email in advance, directly picked up the car at the store, and was informed about some precautions. Italian highways are divided into yellow, white, and blue lanes. Yellow corresponds to domestic ETC, white for cash, and blue for card payments. First, take a ticket at the entry point, then insert it into the toll machine at the exit and pay the amount displayed. It's quite convenient!

You can pick up and drop off the car early without any fees. The car is in great condition, and existing scratch records were already noted during the pickup. The entire drop-off process is self-service, very reliable. I have rented from Europcar several times before and highly recommend them.

They let me choose between two cars. Both were nearly new with around 15,000 kilometers. I decisively chose the A4 wagon since the Alfa Romeo's blue color was too eye-catching and not well-suited for Europe.

There was no queue when picking up the car in Florence. However, despite QEEQ clearly stating that the price was 122 euros, the final amount was higher due to confusion over the charges. After discussing it for a while, they eventually gave an 85% discount to match the 122 euros as promised. In the end, the actual payment matched the contractual amount.

They create a tense atmosphere without giving clear instructions and then find opportunities to collect tips. Small dents as tiny as a grain of rice are completely undetectable from a single angle and require multi-angle photos to clarify and prove. The fuel gauge at pickup showed a remaining range of 520 kilometers, and at return it showed 670 kilometers, but I was fined 35 euros because the fuel gauge was slightly different. I strongly advise everyone to refill the tank completely within 3 kilometers before returning the car.

Car collection took a very long time, well over an hour. Luckily the Firenze staff member greeting us was extremely helpful. The car itself was not great - a button on the fob unlocks the boot and if you are not aware of this then the boot can fly open - happened to us on motorway and those following us were very lucky to avoid collision. Avoid Fiat Qubo!

They forced me to buy insurance, saying they would cancel the booking if I refused. I had no choice but to comply because being in such a remote area without a car would be very inconvenient. Initially, they told me the insurance would cost an additional 19 euros per day, but when I paid with my card, it turned out to be 27 euros per day. When I questioned why the price was higher than the agreed 19 euros, they claimed there had been a mistake and that the card charge was correct. Beware of this!

The wait was quite long, both for queuing and receiving the car. The first car provided had no air conditioning, but the staff member kindly helped me exchange it for another one. The car wasn't given with a full tank, only about three-quarters full, so I returned it with the same level. However, it was hard to control the exact amount when refueling, and I ended up adding more fuel than needed.

Waited an age to get seen and then the agent stated they did not have the three child booster seats I’d ordered. She was wholly unhelpful and I had to be very forceful and insistent before she reluctantly managed to procure the child seats. On return the company have fraudulently tried to pin damages on me for defects that existed at the time of pick-up. Fortunately, I took photos before driving off but that hasn’t stopped them withholding my cash for the trumped-up “damage”. Disgraceful and illegal behaviour from what I had previously thought were a reputable organisatio.

Apart from the fact that the car we received was dirty and hadn't been cleaned properly, everything else was fine. There was no hard sell of expensive insurance. We added full coverage at the counter for 20 euros a day, which met our expectations, and for safety, we opted for full coverage. Adding an extra driver was 10 euros a day. The translation booklet from QEEQ allowed us to rent with a domestic driver's license. Remember to ask for the exact return address, as the one provided by QEEQ was not accurate. We refueled about 10-20 km away from the return spot. During the inspection, they said the tank wasn't full, and we had to either pay 100 euros or fill it up ourselves. We drove back and added 7 euros of fuel nearby, so it's best to refuel close to the return location.

This local Italian car rental company is very laid-back, no upselling at all. What you book is what you get. I had to ask for full insurance myself for it to be added. The rental location at Florence train station has separate spots for paperwork and car pickup. It's about a five-minute walk between them. Most importantly, the car pickup spot is in a garage outside the ZTL, which is very convenient! Once you finish the paperwork and walk over, the car is already prepared. There were no staff members around to explain anything, very laid-back! You inspect the car yourself and contact staff if there are any issues. During the paperwork, the staff told me to return the car with a full tank of fuel. I assumed the car was full when I picked it up, but it wasn't! I filled it up upon return and realized it wasn't full when I picked it up. I mentioned this to the staff when returning the car, and he just smiled and said I simply spent a bit more money but there was nothing he could do.

I originally booked a fully prepaid car, but on the day of pickup, I was told it was unavailable. To avoid delaying my trip, I had to upgrade the model. However, I later found out that the cost of the originally booked car was not refunded, resulting in double charges. I have kept the payment receipt and transaction records, but have yet to receive a resolution. I don't know if it's due to internal mismanagement of the rental company or inefficiency of the platform!

The only hassle was returning the car, as the area was filled with restricted zones and one-way streets, which the GPS failed to identify. We had to return to the hotel and get directions from the hotel staff to find the rental office. Make sure to ask for directions when picking up the car.
