With its spectacular location right on the Baltic Sea, the ancient city of Gdansk is home to Poland's largest and most important seaport. Affectionately known as the Royal Route, much of the city's Old Town is very well preserved and dates back to the early 17th century. The main structures (and tourist sites) include the original city gates, imposing Prison Tower and numerous townhouses still intact from that period. Gdansk also boasts the world's largest brick church - St Mary's - which was built in the 14th century and decorated with several masterpieces of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque art. Set on its own island, the city's star-shaped Wisloujscie Fortress stands proud as one of the most unique architectural and historic monuments in Poland. Now managed by the Museum of Gdansk, this impressive tourist attraction was built in the early 14th century and features a watchtower, lighthouse and underground bunkers where a rare collection of historic weapons is now housed. With your car hire in Gdansk you can visit the lovely beach resort of Sopot a short 20-minute drive north of the city and the vast Kashubian Lake District west of Gdansk.

" Dreadful. Never use Flex n go again and will never recommend. "
" Ripped off with price. Had to pay a further £144.67 because the credit card was rejected on top of the £127 paid on original booking. Although there was no problem in accepting the same credit card for the additional price. there was an additional driver added but this only amounted to 35 polish zwolty per day so we have been charged double.

" Auto Europe was straightforward to use "
" A straightforward hire experience, however I was required to clean the car inside and out prior to return which did cause some problems in locating and navigating a Polish car wash. A "new" mark was identified on a rear seat (which we did not use) but no financial penalty has been applied. "

" Good, as always for years. "
" I couldn't get the car as my name was misspelled on the booking (before signing the documents). Happened to me before with google autofill, but never was a problem in any places in the world I travelled before, as it was corrected during the signing of the documents. Forced by circumstance (two elderly persons waiting) I had to get the car, so on top of my first booking I had to pay an extortion of a price, so I effectively paid for it twice and five time the price. There was no other car available either. My Christmas surprise from Kaizen really was a nasty one. "

" Misleading information given on the hire voucher. No directions provided to the Auto Union office, instead the voucher stated that the 'meeting point' was at the terminal exit behind the car hire offices. This strongly implied that Auto Union's location was somewhere off site and that we would be met on arrival and transferred to the location of the car. Our flight landed a little early and I called the Auto Union number and was told that the rep would 'be there in 15 minutes' ,so we duly waited at the meeting point. Nobody came to meet us. We waited, getting more annoyed. Finally we called the auto union number again to ask where the rep was and were told "we don't come to the terminal to meet you, you have to come to us". I pointed out that the voucher said we would be met at the exit of the terminal building. I was told this was a "mistake by Auto Europe". When we got the car, it was clear that it had been in a few minor accidents with large scrapes down the driver side front and rear doors, damage to 2 of the 4 wheel trims, and lots of dents and dings. It had clearly not been cleaned as there were still suction marks on the windscreen from the previous hirer's mobile phone mount. Nevertheless we agreed to take the car because all we wanted to do was to get on our way and enjoy our holiday. Despite giving my email address to both Auto Europe and again to Auto Union, I was not emailed a copy of the terms and conditions as promised. I signed a mobile tablet to say I had received these, but was not permitted to read them before signing the tablet. It later came to light that the rep had mistyped my email address into his system leading to the contract and terms and conditions not reaching me. I was therefore unaware of the requirement to clean the car inside and out before returning it as this stipulation had never been mentioned. On returning the vehicle Auto Union wanted to charge me an additional fee of over 40 euros which they said was stipulated in the T&Cs which they had failed to send to me. I took the car to the car wash myself and it cost me 30 zloty to clean it (about a tenth of the fee auto union felt was reasonable to charge for cleaning). Not only would that have been an extortionate fee, it was in my view wholly unethical since the car had not been cleaned to a satisfactory standard prior to my renting it. All in all it was the worst hire car experience I have had in 30 years of travel and I will not use Auto Union nor Auto Europe again. "

" I've booked to collect the car from 2355hrs. I've arrived at the collection point at 2350 and waited 20 minutes to be seen as lady behind the counter was dealing with another client. When it was my turn I was told I'll have to pay 150PLN as I was late for collection! When I said I was in time and waiting in a queue, lady sarcastically said that that is applied automatically and she can't do nothing about it! The car i booked wasn't available, and paperwork i was given was showing little dots on a car printout with damages/dents to the car which I couldn't check as it was dark. When ive asked lady what if there is a dent which is not on paperwork and is there now and i cant see it but it can be visible in a broad daylight? She reply i would loose my deposit.....Absolute disgraceful and shocking! You worker had a bad attitude and was very sarcastic. Upon bringing car back there was no spaces to park under the your rental company name and when I went to ask to the rental office at Gdańsk airport it was closed. So needed to park the car in different company parking slot not knowing if that's OK and if I'm not going to be fined for parking in a wrong space or exceeding the time of rental! I've been renting cars all over the world and first time I've experienced such a poor service! Not recommend! "

" I have been renting cars in Europe for 15+ years; Global-Rent-A-Car in Gdansk are definitely the very worst I have ever experienced. I would never recommend this company to anyone. If you hire a car from them, please make sure you take photos and videos of the car's condition. Especially around the bumpers, base of doors and wheels. I'm glad we did, as they tried to claim the existing damages were 'new' from our rental. They charged us for this, and it took a month to get our funds back. The lady at the counter on collection was rude, and tried to up-sell us on every type of extra insurance she could imagine. An awful experience! Please remember, if you're unlucky enough to book a car with this firm - definitely take a lot of photos and videos before you drive the car. "

" Awful "
" The worst experience with a car rental ever!! Avoid at all cost. You're gonna end up paying double. The worst customer service. Due to covid 19 my usual car rental wasn't operating at the time so used Auto Europe for a first time. I booked an automatic Mercedes GLA (or similar class car) that was confirmed as available. When arrived to collect the car was given standard Toyota Avensis that was much cheaper that what I paid for. Was told the Mercedes was never available and they had a similar class car but it broke down. It was 3am and the person serving us was debating for over 1h if to release the car due to my credit card only showing initial of my first name rather than having the full first name printed (UK standard). It was a nightmare!! We then found out that we had to pay extra for the preordered infant car seat that costed half of the entire car hire fee! And it was not even mentioned on the website. We then found out it costed us the same as buying the actual car seat!! The smell inside the car was awful!! we had to drive with the windows down in the middle of the night with 2 kids in the car. 3 days after we returned the car we found out that we were charged £70 for apparently leaving the car dirty which was a nonsense. I wish I used Uber instead that would save me half the money and hassle. "

" I generally have no issue with AutoEurope, but it would help if I knew what car hire company I am renting with, before I make the booking. As I would avoid Global in future. "
" I have been charged for the damage that was already on the vehicle when I hired it, when i asked for the damage report, was told this was being e-mailed to me. The quality of that report is not comparable with other car rental companies. I have worked for a leading car rental company in UK and I thought I understood the process, but this company has their own way of doing things and they are not very open about it until they change you your excess. The rental agreement is missing vital information and again, you get it emailed so unable to read what you are signing. I have additional car hire excess insurance bought separately, I therefore opted for paying the excess deposit. I returned the vehicle during office hours but had to use out of hours facility as office was shut. I then received an email saying that I have been charged for the damage. As far as I was concerned I have returned car in same condition as I hired it. I was then looking at the report, trying to understand what they are charging me for, I could not see the damage on the pictures as the quality of them were so low. On the report there was no description of the damage but just a dot on the area where supposedly it was located. This was not consistent with the overall description of the location of the damage I was charged for. Then the invoice for the charges made absolutely no sense. The charges were totally different to what has actually been charged to my credit card. I have also received images of damage on another vehicle attached to the report. I contacted the company and asked for comprehensive report mentioning all above, it took 30 days for them to resend me the same report but without the images of the different vehicle. I am trying to claim the charges from my other insurance but the information on the damage report is so poor that I'm being asked for additional information. I'm now being also asked to confirm the total excess amount on the hire rental agreement as the agreement is nonexistent. They really need to start working the same way as the rest of the industry. "

" "cheaper and to the point", everything very well described, I really recommend it "
" I should get a car clean - and it was - only outside. The windows in the car were dirty from the inside, something sticky in the back seat, there was no windshield washer fluid. Fortunately, I bought full insurance, because I would probably have to pay for it "

" OK "
" Despite the booking for a Premium category car having been confirmed by Global over 2 months prior, I was downgraded without a refund at pick-up. This was supposedly due to the only Premium category car at Gdansk Airport having been crashed a week earlier, which means that Global made no arrangements whatsoever to arrange an alternative Premium category (or higher) vehicle despite a week's notice, and neither did they inform me nor AutoEurope, as they knew I would in that instance have cancelled the booking and used a different rental car provider. It now goes without saying that I will not be using Global again and I will be advising others against the company. "

" Everything was fine apart of informing us about of lack of satellite navigation system(GPS).We struggled to get everywhere using Google map on our mobile phones.On the way back we found that there was navigation system in that car.it would be far easier for us if we had proper information about that at the beginning.We were surprised that the car without satnav was given to us.

" ON ASKING FOR A REFUND THEY REFUSED. ON INSISTING ON A CAR THEY FINALLY FOUND AN OLD SEAT IBIZA. NOT THE VW TIGUAN WE HAD PAID FOR. TRIED PHONING AUTO EUROPE TO COMPLAIN BUT IMPOSSIBLE TO GET THROUGH. PHONES JUST RANG UNANSWERED. TERRIBLE SERVICE. "
" OUR FLIGHT WAS DELAYED AND DEPITE GLOBAL GDANSK HAVING OUR FLIGHT DETAILS, THEY CLOSED THE OFFICE LEAVING US STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. WE HAVE TO TAKE A TAXI TO A HOTEL. ON OUR RETURN IN THE MORNING THEY SAID THEY NOW HAD NO CAR AVAILABLE. "

" The YourRent staff were pleasant but clearly inexperienced. The delay was not such a problem because we were able to have lunch. "
" I had to wait nearly two hours from the appointed collection time because there was no car available. The car eventually provided was larger (Avensis estate) than I had ordered. Although this turned out not to cause me any problems, I would have preferred a car of the size I had requested. "

" All good, except: it would have been good to email the final rental agreement to me rather than auto europe. also I struggled to work out how to start & lock the car. A bit of help there would have been apreciated. The car was excellent though. "

" The booking was with Global Rent A Car (reviews for Global were good and assumed our booking would be with you) and we had to wait nearly 45 mins for the person to arrive with the car. Rang many times and the number was unavailable. Eventually after 30 mins the person answered the phone and said he was running late. The car condition was good and handover process was fine once he eventually turned up. We arrived back at the agreed time and again were kept waiting for over 30 mins before someone turned up. We signed the documents that the vehicle was in a good condition and fueled up. We were told our holding deposit would be refunded. This was on the 18th June. We only got our deposit back today (5th July) after many complaining phone calls and emails. The company were very unhelpful and said that there may need to be charges for damages (despite that the vehicle was checked and signed for!). Reading reviews for Global Rent A Car most reviews were 1 star over the last 6 months for the same reasons with other people being scammed out of their deposits for damages despite the vehicle being signed off as fine at the point of drop off.

" ABSOLUTELY SHOCKING!!! "
" Please ALL BE AWARE of this car rental. There are not based in the terminal like the autoeurope advertise! I rent a car from 2 pm and as the plane was slightly delayed I was left on the airport with 2 children and luggage waiting for somebody to come and pick us up. The car I paid for in full for 12 days!!! was given to another customer and I was left with very little option but to PAID EXTRA and get upgrade which I DID NOT NEED/WANT! The car broke down after 3 days of driving and I understand that this can happen at any time its only a machine. The Assistance service that ''looked after me'' ws shocking!they left us waiting outside on a side of road for 4 Hrs!! and sent a driver with the courtesy car to a different town!!! The courtesy car was issued to me till the end of my rental(as I was told)only to find out 2 days later that if I dont return this car within 1 hrs I will be charged for the whole time . The global car rental from GDANSK mostly did not answer my phonecalls and seemed oblivious to a fact that this is the assistance service that they use. The whole experience cost me money and precious time not mentioning the stress and nerves. Please think twice if you want to use this rental company; often cheaper id dearer! "
