Europe car staff was rude and untruthful. Car had damage on every body panel. When you refuse extra insurance they force you to sign a contract promising to pay nearly double the MSRP if the car if it is damaged. (Fiat 500 MSRP 17k insisted I sign to pay 30k USD)

Poor|Sept 2022
The car assigned was missing a hubcap and had body damage from a previous rental. No after hours drop off instructions provided for destination, and dark desolate Eurocar drop off location in Grenoble. Due to miscreants loitering in the dark in the area, decided not to risk my life, and left tand incurred an add’l days rental to return following day.

Okay|May 2022
The car was clean and spacious, but hard to find. Located in a remote parking lot and space. It was hard to navigate the distance w luggage. The car was different from what was promised: expected a hybrid car w GPS. It was neither. Contactless renting has its advantages. At the same time you need internet service every time you open and lock the car. We travelled to Lyon from a different continent and so this was an issue.

It appeared my vehicle had been upgraded as I was given an automatic hybrid car which was lovely to drive & economic on fuel!
