I was completely satisfied with the car rental, despite the fact that the local guys spoke almost no English - they were very cordial and friendly, communication with them left only positive emotions and memories. All the conditions of the original agreement were fulfilled, no pitfalls were found, which I am very happy about.

Ford Fiesta in Albania
the car was fine and worked perfectly, thank you the guy to whom we had to give the car back did not reply the early morning when we had to take the plane so we were actually afraid to miss the plane so please try to tell him this, also because at last we just left the keys inside so he could have told us theday before and everything would have gone perfectly thank you
Volkswagen Golf 6 in Albania
Old car with many miles and check engine light on. Door not working and windows that would barely roll down. After a few days of rental the car would not accelerate anymore and no assistance was provided and the owners never answered calls and messages. Upon delivery of the car we were charged 5€ for washing and another 15€ because according to them the fuel level was not the same as it was when the car was delivered to us. High rental price. Embarrassing. Highly not recommended.
