Ford Fusion in Albania

The car was very old and without power steering. I hired a car to pick it up at the airport and return it there but when I handed it over I was instructed to leave it somewhere else, logically I left it at the airport and sent the guy the location where I left it parked.

Volkswagen Golf 5 in Albania

The car I rented is not the car I received. When you met your coworker to pick up the car, it was the wrong car. I waited with her for 1 hour until another car arrived to replace her. This new car wasn't that car either, but I didn't want to wait any longer for another car to arrive since I had already wasted time waiting. They gave me a VW Sharan car. The rear tires were very bald and the air intake filter kept falling off while driving. Your colleague with whom I dealt was informed of the problems. Luckily, the car didn't break down and my wife and I were able to continue our vacation.

Opel Corsa in Albania

There were no problems at first, but when we moved to another city, the problems started. We got a car that we had an accident on because the tire on the car was 15 years old and burst during a trip to Saranda. The tires were installed incorrectly because the tires were installed in pairs and they were not. Each tire was different. There was no emergency stop sign when the tire was replaced, which is a basic feature of the car. We had to pay 200 e for having old tires, no triangle and the resulting accident, and it was impossible to appeal despite police intervention. We would have been happy if it wasn't for the fact that we paid money for insurance that didn't really work. Contact with you or the landlord was good, but the experience with the rental company itself was not good.

Nissan Micra in Albania

They met us in accordance with the arrangements at the airport, drove us to the office without any problems, processed the documents. They also helped us with refueling the car and there were no problems with returning the car at the appointed place and returning the deposit Now about the car itself, although I realize that this is probably the cheapest offer on the market and I have no claims, but in general. The car is burning a bunch of errors, the bumper was not fixed properly (fixed it myself when it began to sail strongly in the road and make an unpleasant sound). At one of the parking lots the ulems from the battery came off, the car stopped starting. There was a problem with the hood closing. And probably the most important thing - the car can be normally traveled on normal roads. We drove from Vlora to Saranda on a road that goes uphill - the car just wouldn't go. The speed uphill is 5-10 km per hour. It was a little bit exciting. But then again, as it stands, so it goes)

Hyundai i10 in Albania

All perfect. Not only did he upgrade the category of the rented car, but he came to pick us up at the hotel and on the day of the return he accompanied us to the airport. The car in perfect condition. The unbeatable quality-price ratio. I would repeat without hesitation. Totally recommended.
