Audi A4 Avant in Albania
We rented another car that had problems upon arrival, so it was replaced with a very old BMW. The car had a lot of lights on, the side tray inside was broken, and the USB power cable didn't work. Not to mention a car that only drove in first gear uphill and started shaking when it exceeded 110 km per hour.
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.
Ford Fiesta in Albania
Everything went great! The car is new, it feels good on the serpentine, the green card was issued. The registration was quick, as well as the return
Audi A3 in Albania
The car was not in a very good state. It smelled like ciagrettes really bad. The rear windshield wiper was missing. Engine lights were on nonstop. One lady broke our windshield and we were supposed to pay for damages even though we were not at fault.

It was an amazing experience to rent a car from Aldi car rental. Everything was perfect. He (car rental owner) was very kind and everything went smooth. We are very satisfied. 10/10 service and car.
Volkswagen Golf 5 in Albania
just to let you know we are very desapointed with the car. First of all we asked for a golf 5 and we had a Touran which is more bigger and not modern. We did not have diesel inside when we get it and had to fill full,this is not really helpfull. Climatisation do not work well and we cannot charge our phone and no GPS inside. You must precise it before we book car. Moreover, we have a lot of signal light as oil to contrôle, airbag failure..we are not safe at all with this car. We also left with half a tank of gas, even though we had started with a car that barely had any gas!
Audi A3 in Albania
The car was nice but the air conditioning didn't work well and it was less comfortable than the Golf, I ordered the Golf. All in all it was good Except for the air conditioning
Opel Corsa in Albania
We rented this car for 3 days and had a great time. The car is clean with no mechanical problems.
Volkswagen Golf 5 in Albania
Your website worked well. But my impressions of renting a Golf 5 car were negative. First, at the specified point where the car was supposed to be, it was not there. When we started to call and write to the guys who were supposed to give us the car, they said to wait for them. They were half an hour late. Then we noticed that there was no child seat in the car, which we ordered ahead of time, and then we waited for half an hour until they brought it. In total they delayed us for an hour. Secondly, we ordered an automatic transmission, but we were given a car with a manual transmission. Thirdly, the car from the first minute of the lease had no low beam and we had to drive at night with high beam headlights. It was very unpleasant, all oncoming cars included us also high beam, than blinded me as a driver, and I blinded them with my high beam. The air conditioner in the car worked, but at the fourth speed of the fan it worked very loudly. Yes, that it was impossible to have a conversation in the interior of the car. The battery was very bad and several times the car could not be started. Until it had been standing for a few minutes. Well on top of that after three or four days of rental the gearbox started to work worse and worse and in the last few days it almost didn't work anymore. We thought that we would not be able to get to the place where we were obliged to give the car, but once we did.

Everything went well, thank you very much ☺️
Toyota Auris in Albania
We had a Golf 5 2.0 diesel and not a Toyota. The car was very strong and good. We were very satisfied and will recommend you to our friends if they are going to Albania. Thank you once again for the nice and good service.
Baic Senova D50 in Albania
It's been great
Ford Fiesta in Albania
We had a good experience. The communication went very well via whatsapp. Fast response time even in the evening. They have a great drop-off and pick-up service. We used different locations. Everything was possible, even if it was a three hour drive form there office. Unfortunately our car broke down after a week. The customer service responded quickly and immediately sent a new car while we went for lunch. Thing like this can happen. More important is how it is solved. They solved it nicely. In short, I recommend this company because of the good service, car and decent prices.
