" Staff at US office were readily available and always helpful. I had confidence in them. Good Service. "
" In Florence where we picked up car they had no maps. She gave us verbal directions and we got lost getting to the autostrada. It was frustrating. I asked her what if we had an accident or needed the police. She told us the contact numbers but did not tell us she didn't have any contracts booklets to give us. She did not provide the green booklet with the contract. (We received one in Arezzo when we switched cars) We had a minor mishap where drivers side mirror was broken off. The book would have answered the questions we had about paperwork that needed to be completed. We called the roadside assistance number. "

" Renting a car from Europecar was right and great decision. The desk clerk was friendly very helpfull and the paperwork was done quick. The car was excellent condition, the drop off was a brief event. Pricewise it was also a great deal except at the pick up time we had to pay additional 50 euro for snow chains we never used. I though chains were coming with rhe car just as a spare tire. We absolutelly recomend this rental. Thank you Europecar Dont change "

" Easy to use, I like the all inclusive insurance option. "
" only issue is size of car requested versus style available at check in. I asked for a compact ( VW Golf, Fiat 500) and they tried to give me a Jeep Compass... when in Italy, I prefer a smaller car. I ended up with a Opel Mokka, which was a compromise. But the counter person was quite helpful in assisting me. "

" Easy pick up and return with no issues. We reserved an automatic transmission compact car for 13 days 4 months in advance and received a newer hybrid. "
" Easy to use and good instructions re insurance "
" Really easy and quick pickup at Firenze (Florence). We chose to pick up across the Arno River so as to avoid any in city driving limitations that most major cities have. The car was clean, odour free (no previous smoke odour) and the checkout was very fast Return was in Rome by the Termini train station. It was not explained to me that the return was in a parkade near the station but we found it easily using the address and a map program. We were late returning the car and had advised them of the lateness two hours before our check in time. Driving for the first time in Rome is harrowing and we would have appreciated an indication of where to fuel close to the drop off. Return was done by key drop and that was easy. "
" On line booking went very smoothly "
" Check in process was good Hertz upgraded us a 500X with navigation and we are very grateful for this Return was also very smooth tough finding the drop off location at Florence airport was a challenge "
" good room, mileage and power, but it had features that I wasn't familiar with and maybe a few instructions would have been good "
" Great vehicle, easy check in, very stressful finding the garage to return the car "
" Highly satisfied with my dealings with AutoEurope. This was only my second dealing with AE (I usually deal with another on-line travel provider) and I will definitely consider again in the future. "
" Only negative (and no fault of AE) was that I was charged an additional 17Euro by Hertz after the fact with no explanation... "
" Easy to use and convenient. "
" They delivered the car to our hotel in Florence for a ?20 fee. We were very happy with the service. "
" Booked our car on-line and was very happy with the quote and the simplicity of booking the car. "
" Enjoyed the free upgrade when our reserved car was not available! Hertz representative at Florence Airport was very pleasant and explained to us the nearest gas station to refill our car and avoid the fill charge. Very appreciative of this. "
" Great, no problems at all. "
" They couldn't! have been nicer, they upgraded us to make sure we had the right fit for us. We took it back to a different location and everything was done in minutes. "
" Perfect. It was very easy to check in. The staff were happy and awesome! Very helpful. The car was ready and waiting. We were given excellent instructions on how to exit and return the vehicle. There were no problems at all. "
" I would definitely rent another vehicle from here. The price was comparable, the service excellent, the staff wonderful. Convenient location. "
" On this occasion I was offered an all inclusive insurance package with the rental for a very good price. This relieves all the stress of renting a car and I was not able to get the same deal when renting a car from you in London, England. It should be that all your cars come with this excellent insurance package for a low price! "
" The address for picking up the rental car in Florence was wrong!.....Right street, wrong unit number! Otherwise this rental xperience was great. "
" Better access to returning a rental at Florence airport would be nice, because it is difficult to find. Otherwise excellent experience. "
" Easy to use and very efficient service. "
" Very pleased with the car provided even though it was not the car requested. Returning the car with a full tank was not easy as one may think. Even though the tank was virtually full, Eurocar charged a service fee. Other than that, the pick up and drop off was relatively event free, except for finding the place. Make sure you order a GPS for the car in English, because it is not provided by the rental company and you will be lost without it. "
" Very pleasant and easy to deal with. Everything was as promised. The pick up process was a little slow but then it was really busy. "
" Very easy to deal with even though the pick up process was a little slow. Long line and long wait. "

" They are always busy but they have human touch to dealing with you in a professional and warm attitude And get you on your way Great team "
" Very efficient and met my expectations. "
" Whenever I travel to Europe I always book with Auto Europe as I find they provide me with the best rates. Even though I'm a Hertz Gold Plus member, I still get better rates from Auto Europe than by booking direct with Hertz. For that reason alone I will continue to book through them. "
" I truly enjoyed the vehicle I received in my last two rentals. They were just what I needed and even better than what I expected. And when we came back after a couple of days to add an additional driver, it was completed quickly and efficiently. My only complaint is that even though I'm a Hertz Gold Plus member, the lineup and wait time is still quite lengthy at the Florence airport. "
" everything was fine, the location of the rental car was a bit out of the way "
" Only issue was location, was a ways away from the train station. Everything else was fine "
" I wrote a few emails to ask questions and they were very quick to respond "
" It was easy to get the rental car shuttle to go to the rental car lot "
" The booking was easy. I had to make a modification which I did online and it worked well. The price had even dropped. "
" The wait was not too long, They had the car that we wanted. Everything was in good condition. They asked where we were going and provided direction. "
" Always easy to deal with and have never had any issues! Usually able to find the best price! "
" Service was very good and efficient in Florence and Savona but the rental van I received had many scratches and damages. Very unusual! "
" Nice to show up at an agency counter and not have them question our voucher or rate, it all went very smoothly. "
" The small waiting area was busy with morning pickups - and they did an excellent good job of managing the crowd, including a 'rover' who greeted each new person at the door, made sure they took a number to wait for an agent who would do their paperwork, and then mixed and mingled with customers, offering driving advice and highlighting routes on a local map for each renter - taking full advantage of this waiting time, instead of causing delays at the counter with all such questions. We were very impressed. "
" My experience was a very satisfying one. I will certainly use Europecar again, as recommend to my friends and family, "
" My experience was a very satisfying one. I will certainly use Europecar again, as recommend to my friends and family, "
" i got exactly the car specified or indicated "such as " when I made my reservation. With the GPS integrated and it was essential for my week at Toscany "
" The reservation was sent perfectly to AUTOEUROPE. This is my third booking with AutoEurope in 3 years and am pleased with quality of vehicles and value as well as the full inclusive insurance plan!! One does not want car insurance surprises in Europe!! "
" EUROCAR was efficient in getting us going downtown Florence. They gave us a BMW216D which I believe was an upgrade. The car was great- and despite having damage from previous renter-the car was great. At drop off had to review previous damage with inspector and we are happy that we took video and photo of prior damage to prove that we did not cause any issues. Other than this- great car for Tuscany roads!! "
" Changed plans 3 times and thought we lost the keyfob. Auto Europe were very acommodating and offered to cover tow and alternate travel...then we found the keyfob! "
" Free upgrade from a Jeep to an automatic BMW was a nice surprise especially in Italy. Will definately rent from Auto Europe next vacation "
" Simple. Fast. All details were explained and nothing was hidden. "
" Fast. Efficient. No details were changed at the last minute. We received the exact car we had requested in the booking. Vehicle was clean and in perfect condition. Pick up process was fast and efficient. Al details explained. Directions given were clear and precise. "
" Booking was simple and easy. "
" Liked the car. Clean and ready to go when we picked it up. No troubles along the way. Would have been nice to have more options to get to the airport in the middle of the night. Had an early flight. "
" Staff were helpful and service was speedy. Car was well suited for what we required. "
" Same as above. "
" Liked the options of rental locations you offered. "
" Long lineup at the Florence Avis office, thank goodness I have a preferred card. Did not like the VW car with a combination manual/automatic transmission. Would have preferred an ordinary manual but it seemed that was only avail as an upgrade (strange for Europe) to a BMW. Return was almost as quick as an airport location. "
" We have rented from Auto Europe before. I am not sure that the Florence location was quite up to our expectations. "
" Both window wiper blades were badly damaged, which was not discovered until it rained part-way through the rental. And the tire pressure warning light went on after a couple of hours of driving. Neither of these things are instant occurrences, and suggest that the maintenance and inspection at this location are lacking. "
" Very quick and professional to deal with. No problems wih the car. A more detailed map of the immediate area would have been nice so I didn't get so hopelessly lost on my way out! "
" Great service I would book again with you. "
" I was dealt with in a courteous and professional manner "
" Everything went perfectly. "
" Everything was fine. "
" Wiper fluid was empty. We returned the car 3 hours after the sched time and were charged 50 Euros for the day, which is 2 x our auto europe rate. Seems excessive. "
" I miss read the return date on the agreement, my fault but I would have liked to have received an email from your company in forming me of my error the next day. "
" Efficient service "
" Very good service. The road map given to show the position of the car rental office could be better (a Google map rather than the hand drawn map) so as to facilitate returning the car. "
" Booking online was easy and fast. "
" Staff were friendly and informative. Exit from lot was fine. Returning car was a challenge due to location of lot. Was using GPS to exact location but still had issues. Finally received some help from gas station up the road and was able to locate. I can't wait until all rentals are located right at the airport grounds if that is the plan. Drop off attendant was very nice. Prompt drop and documentation update. Great service in all. "
" The only problem was finding our way back to return the car, as the signage in Florence was not clearly enough indicated. Otherwise, all was as you explained and no other charges were rendered except for an additional driver fee which was expected. Good price. Brand new car. Will use you again. Thanks "
" Courteous service and a very nice car. Contributed to a very enjoyable vacation. "
" Your service and arrangements have and are still first class. "
" Check in service was good and the vehicle was clean and new. However the location of the FLR rental centre was weird and 1 km off location. They didn't open and no bus transfer was available in the morning as most international flights was very early AM from FLR. I walked back to the airport with my family waiting at the airport where we dropped off the luggage first. They should at least need to provide a better map between the airport and rental centre. Advice customer about a 10 min walk. "
" Great price, flexibility and service "
" Allowed us to choose from a number of vehicles due to my wife"s back injury and need for a particular type of front passenger seat. "
" Final amount of invoice is not very clear when booking is made ie: Drop off charges; taxes etc "
" Always seem to get equivalent car; never the car requested. "
" My wagon was poor. It had 75000 kms n it and poor tires and brakes. I exchanged it for a Ford focus the second week which was much better. "
" Was a wonderful experience, everything was ready and waiting for us in Florence. Excellent service. "
" Easy drop off at Rome airport, no problems, we loved the car it was great. We will definitely use your company in the future for our European travels. "
" difficult to find location to return vehicle.......no maps wewre available when we picked up vehicle.....did not reserve a GPS and could not secure one when we arrived for pick up. (shoupd have some available).....return check in process was cumbersome......hertz should have a shuttle to airport and not rely on taxi service.....vehicle was just fine "
" did not get the car I booked ? "
" The car was not clean, inside and outside. Even glasses were not clean. "
" best price, clean ad recent car "
