Opel Corsa in Albania

Everything went smoothly, with a few issues. We received a different car ( Dacia). The Opel was in for service. When we returned the car, we discovered we had to pay extra for gas we didn't use. This was partly our fault. It was night, and I didn't check how full the tank was before picking it up. The staff who picked up the car didn't seem very friendly, which is more than I could say about the guy who gave it to us.

Chevrolet Captiva in Albania

The site itself is convenient, but does not contain complete information about the condition of the rented car. It starts for 10-15 minutes (either the battery is old or the spark plugs need to be cleaned). Hollowed steering rack. I have no complaints about the site. I was very disappointed with the condition of the car, and had trouble.

Mercedes-Benz Vito in Albania

We rented a Mercedes Vito for 4 days. The car was not serviced and had problems with the brakes. Since I booked and paid for the car a month before, I would have liked the service to be timely so that the trip would be pleasant. Otherwise, the rental went very smoothly.

Unfortunately, I was not happy with the process from start to finish. The owner of the vehicle was very unpleasant and the vehicle had mechanical issues.

Audi A6 in Albania

at the appointed time of receipt the car was being repaired. Later the car drove well, but some details interfered - faulty contact of the seat belt on the driver's seat, sometimes the complete shutdown of the car did not work, the window lifter on the back seat did not work.

Peugeot 208 in Albania

We had booked a Peugeot 208, an automatic car (it wouldn't have been out of place, especially in Albania^^), but we ended up with a manual Citroën C4. Everything went very smoothly, from pick-up at the airport to drop-off at the airport. Regon is a very nice person, very correct. I recommend using Regon to rent a car. Thank you Regon and good luck
