Everything was ok, the renter was fine, the car was in good condition. About two weeks after the rental the landlord informed me that the car had scratches on the bumper, when returning the car nothing was noticed, unfortunately two weeks after the return I could not confirm anything, don't know what was going on with the car during this time.
Citroen C4 in Albania
Last year I used this site and everything went well. This year I was not completely satisfied. The car was supposed to arrive at my hotel at 10am. At 9.55am I received a message that the car would be later. I then received a message that I would get another car and could exchange it later. Almost an hour later the car arrived. We had already driven out and waited for an hour. The car turned out to be very old and not at all like the requested lemon. It was a very old Opel Matiz, the gas tank cap was missing, the rear seat belts were almost broken (not very convenient when you have kids with you). The story was that the lemon had been in an accident on delivery by the last renter and needed repairs. I couldn't wait for that as I was going to be traveling and the nearest hotel was 3 hours away. So we agreed to use this car. Every day it had a warning light come on and it didn't shift well, but otherwise it was fine. When we returned, I was allowed to park the car in designated spots. The company apologized. However, they should have called me immediately and honestly explained the situation. They didn't do that until later. Then I would have understood the situation better too.

Ford Fiesta in Albania
I had a couple of unpleasant situations. 1. the car was not a Ford Fiesta, but I got a different car. 2. For a car seat we paid 50 euros, but the seat did not correspond to the necessary age, as the seats we needed were defective, respectively during the rental period we could not use the car seat. 3. We asked to return our car to the airport as we had a 6 month old baby and it was uncomfortable to move around, but they still did not agree even against the payment. 4. Fines were deducted without our consent (fine for returning the car dirty, but the car was still in poor condition when we received it). 5. The deposit amount has not been returned to this day. 6. We recommended takecars.com to 2 friends who also had unpleasant situations with cars other than the requested ones, with cars in which the air conditioning system was not working.
