The Italian capital city of Rome is one of the most visited cities in the world. Its history dates back thousands of years, with much of it still present to be visited today. Rome was once the center of a large empire, and as such can still boast iconic monuments, such as, the Colosseum and the Pantheon. Getting to the city is relatively easy, with Rome Ciampino Airport and Rome Fiumicino Airport being only two of the main entry points for tourists. The following car hire reviews in Rome provide an insight into what our previous customers have thought about the level of service they received from us in Rome.
Auto Europe provides great car hire quotations and an exceptional customer service to ensure your car rental needs in Rome are met. Along with car hire, we also provide luxury car hire, motorhome hire and a transfer service. We have partnered with numerous global car hire suppliers to make sure you receive a great car hire experience – no matter where you are globally. During your visit to Rome, consider hiring a car from either Rome Termini Train Station or Rome Tiburtina Train Station, which are both well located in close proximity to many of the city's man attractions.

The car was in good conditions, I only have to report two minor issues: 1. Screenwash empty - is it normal with car rental companies? For my last 4 or 5 rentals with different companies (never with Leasys) it seems to be the rule! 2. Rear right door (passenger side) does not open from the inside, I did not check if the child lock was engaged, which could be the case. If it's not the case, it should be fixed. "

" Best car rental experience I ever had in Rome and I am a frequent traveler. The car was superb with phone holder on dashboard and charger really nice touch The car interior and exterior both immaculate. My phone battery never ran to empty on me with this car made my visit less stressful as I needed my phone to speak to suppliers/workmen working on my Italian renovation. The staff were very charming and helpful ,they even looked after my luggage as we inspected the car on my return. "

" We have not had any problems before when hiring cars through Auto Europe. "
" The initial counter staff were fine, however when I went to pick up the car, it wasn't ready. They then said we could have an upgraded vehicle but then eventually they said we couldn't have it because it was assigned to another client. After 40 minutes we received a rather battered Opel Meriva. There were numerous dents and scratches on it, which weren't listed on the vehicle condition report. So we then had to wait another 10 minutes for someone to check over the car and adjust the report. We found that the staff were generally very unhelpful. "

" With Goldstar it appears at the moment it can be hit & miss re car hire. However one cannot fault the price and we shall again look at Goldcar. We have our own place in Italy and have hired cars through Auto Europe for 11 years now and Goldcar we always dismissed because it was usually a shuttle service and poor reviews. They are now in terminal and are i believe trying to get better. The price is the attraction at the moment and we shall again look to rent from them via Auto Europe. "
" Car NOT full of fuel on pickup, missing at least €10 worth of petrol. Told the Goldstar rep & he took photo of fuel gauge. No water in windscreen wiper box. 2 bad scratches/ small dents on side of car. We took the car back after 2 weeks full of fuel. The reason was simple, the price we paid for the rental was excellent. Pity about the missing fuel though. PS/ on drop off we picked up another pre booked Goldstar car a 500X again and this car was full of fuel and spotless. Well done on price Goldstar. "

" Because the airline I was flying with kept changing which airport we were flying to/return from I changed my booking with you at least twice and still got it wrong as they changed yet again when I arrived at the airport. Your staff were most courteous efficient as was the quick response and emails. I will always use Auto Europe and have no hesitation in recommending you. Thank you. "
" Frequency of the rent-a-car shuttle bus is better than it has been but still room for improvement. "
" Add the ability to choose the exact car model rather, and update the actual choices available. I did not know that I had reserved an automatic, nor did I know for certain that for my reservation this would be (or could be) an Audi A3. In fact, I was interested in renting an A1, which on your website was not indicated in the car class I chose. However, I was able to make the change at the counter to the A1 manual. So I was very pleased at the outcome, but it would be preferable to know this information beforehand. "
" Compared to other car rental agencies I have used, your check-out and check-in process at your facility was slow, but otherwise efficient. Your staff was friendly and helpful, but additional staff to process multiple clients at the same time would have been helpful. For example, I took us about 30 minutes to check-out of your facility at Rome Termini, and about 20 minutes to check-in at FCO. If we had been running late in getting to the airport, your check-in process would have been unnecessarily very stressful. "
" Service is always excellent - it is why I like using you for my hire vehicles. "
" I have sent an email to Customer Services explaining my experience. "
" Great service as usual many thank. "
" Very professional and fast service!eccellent! "

" amazing value "
" I have used Auto Europe several times' It is a simple system and it works well. We chose a zero excess package but on arrival we told it did not include the glass roof or wheels. "
" I ordered a Clio because we have owned a Clio but we got a Lancia which had awkward blind spots. It was disappointing because there were Clios available but the service was excellent with minimal waiting. "
" Fine "
" Good service at pickup and drop off. Big complaint - the hire car stank of cigarette smoke. Had to have windows open for 8 days. "
" As a regular client of Auto Europe I would like to say how pleased I am with the service. Always great cars in top condition, and always without any problems plus good value for money. "
" Quick efficient service. Good well presented car. "

" better diections to office would be of benefit. waiting for nearly 1hr to pick up car, additional staff required at busy periods "
" Very good webite which shows all of the options including Fuel and on / off site options. Easy to use "
" Very slow at checkin - waited 45 minutes to get the desk and then 15 minutes for a simple checkin. Particularly irritating was at the end of the checkin, all of my details were already in their database from a previous rental. Why not do this first. Once checked in the physical collection and vehicle checkin both for pick up and drop off was very efficient. "
" Have used your company before will recommend to friends and family. . "
" Service was not to standard, car was dirty both inside and out. Had to accept the car as I did not have time to wait. Next time I will check the car hire company is one I know. "
" easy to book "
" good company and friendly staff "
" I have found Auto Europe easy to use and any issues in the past have been swiftly and satisfactorly dealt with. The no-quibble cancellation policy has worked very well on the occasions when I have had to cancel or alter the rental. This, together with the lack of hidden charges, means I now only book through Auto Europe "
" Very good value but it would have been helpful to have been told this was part of Maggiore to save some searching for the correct office. In addition there was an unusual condition (in my experience of renting regularly at this location) to return the car with a clean interior otherwise a valeting charge would be incurred. It is not that this is particularly unreasonable but prior notification is always useful. "
" The service was courteous and professionnal. The car was in perfect order, very clean, not too big for the small roads and not too small for 4 adults. Instructions for collecting the car at one airport in Rome and leaving it at another airport were perfect. Will use AutoEurope again! "
" See above! Will use Maggiore again! "

" Easy to use the booking system. We are always able to rent the type of car that we want. - although that may be down to making our bookings well in advance. Late bookings will always mean less choice - this is down to the customer rather than the hire company. "
" Service and customer interface very good - it all goes smoothly at collection and return. We have used Maggiore 3 times a year for the last 3 or 4 years and will continue to use them. Our only negative point is that the cars recently have had more noticeable damage on them i.e.. scrapes and dents. "

" AutoEurope service great and allowed us to alter booking for a cheaper contract very easily. "
" Car did not have warning triangle or hi-viz jacket which we only realised once into the rental and is not legal. However car itself ws fine (although underpowered for the hills) and checking out and in were very smooth with helpful staff. "
" I have been using Auto Europe for years and they are my go to car hire option. I've never yet been let down. "

" Good value, easy website, helpful staff "

" Very pleased with the service "
" Very satisfied "
" as i rent a number of times a year a returning customer bonus would be welcome "
" good service nice helpful people at collection point. At busy arrival times i suggest a further transport bus be added to avoid a 40 min wait for collection at airport for transport to pick up point, "
" easy to book online and response was relatively quick "
" The wait at the airport to pick up the car was horrible, we had to wait for 1.5 hours since there were only 2 agents helping customers. But the car was fine, ran smooth and the return has hazzle free "
" More emphasis on excess insurance cover would be good. It is clear that some of the rental car operators have far higher excess charges and focus on making money through charging high repair costs. Maybe Auto Europe could put some disclaimer advise. (we advise excess cover with this company?) "
" Our car suffered a small knock where someone had reversed into the boot. To have this fixed should cost around 200gbp MAX. Locauto charged 580euro, threatened a 20% increase if we disputed, we curt and rude. They clearly maxed out the charge saying we had to pay to replace every damaged part including a tiny mark etc. Quite simply the damage vs. charge was disproportionate. The manor which is was dealt with by the lady on desk was terrible and it left a bad taste. We will never use them again. I have been hiring cars for 20 years for maybe 3 to 4 weeks per year and have never experience something like this. "
" Good service an good value. But its very strange that we could not get insurance for the car whilst on a short ferry crossing. "
" The car had not been properly cleaned and the cigarette lighter was faulty which meant our SatNav could not charge. But pick up and drop off were very efficient and nobody tried to rip us off (which is a first in Italy!). "
" Booking process was fine. "
" The car and the drop off service at Rome ariport were excellent. However, the pick up service in Rome was awful. I had to queue for over 2.5 hours to check in where there was only one girl on duty on saturday lunchtime. I then had to walk 500 yards with cases to collect car at a separate car park. The process involved completing forms with information you already had such as email address and phone number. This form could have been issued in advance if you needed this information on paper. "
" it would be better if you had a my bookings function so you could see all your bookings (past and current) in one place. Ability to view and see customer reviews of specific companies "
" Two hour wait to collect car, no apology. "
" very good & efficient online booking system. "
" My only comment would be the wait time to go through paperwork, etc.(1 hour 20 mins). perhaps it would be worth having more people on at weekends during peak periods? Otherwise, service was excellent. "
" The rental was fine and we had no problems at all. The car was in a bit of a state but that was the drivers who had rented it before us. "
" They where fine if a little under staffed. "
" Professional pick-up. However, wait times are far too long, as the counter was understaffed. This led to having to wait for 30 mins before we could collect the car. "
" See previous comments. "
" The car had a couple of scratches on it which were not listed on the contract. With only one person being on the desk and with other customers waiting to be attended to it would have been time consuming trying to get these marks noted. We did take photographs of the marks just in case. I suggest a more accurate inspection of the cars before sending out. "
" No problems at the desk. We were offered a choice of cars. "
" Very happy. Was recommended by my father, so I tried it out. I did have to call in the end to be sure the booking was confirmed as had not received email confirmation. But this was then quickly sent through. Good to be able to speak to a real person quickly and without navigating a multitude of menu options. Thanks. "
" Very happy with the car. And the ease of the process. The desk at Rome airport was very busy though. And a ticket queuing system still had me waiting 30mins just to see a representative. Once I saw someone, it was very quick. And as more of a comment on Rome airport. Beware the signage when it comes to navigating the roads leading to the correct car park when returning vehicle. Absolutely appalling! "

" Vehicle was not ready (replacing a rear tail light) but the staff were very helpful and the paperwork was handled very efficiently The vehicle had a high mileage and only 1 hubcap but drove well. Drop off was handled well even though they were very busy Overall a good experience "
" I booked many times and until now Auto Europe, has been always perfect from start to end. "
" Very professional Company, from a smooth short transfer from airport, only 5 minutes away, to a perfect service at the rental desk. A different level in comparison with what I experienced previously with other companies inside the Ciampino Airport, where I was not happy with the service received. This time I made the right choice, FIREFLY is a great professional Company, the car was great, checked at the start and at the end of the rental, for my peace of mind. Employees very kind and polite, I will be very happy to book again with them. "

" Vehicle hired totally inadequate. High mileage, poor condition and dirty interior. Rear flat tyre after one hour's drive and no useable spare (also flat) including no wheel nut spanner. Therefore, even if the spare wheel was usable, there was no means of changing it. Disappointing response from Firefly when we returned a replacement car supplied by Hertz. Only a verbal apology despite all the inconvenience i.e. having to follow a breakdown truck to Cassino to collect another car which meant our journey was delayed by several hours. No offer of refund or recompense for the inconvenience caused by the inadequate condition of the original vehicle, not even for the extra fuel left in the car when we return it. Would not use nor recommend again "
" Easy to use website, no hassle, competitive, use branded hire car company and and brand new car supplied. Great value. "
" Very professional, no hassle, straight forwards and no queues! 4 staff on the desk, so slick service. Return of car was simple, quick and efficient. "
" Very helpful with the booking - and a good price. "
" It was hard to find Bus stop 10 at Rome Airport. More detailed information about exactly where to find the minibus would be helpful (NOT in the Bus Station, but near to the fountain outside the terminal would help) Also a map to help us back onto the main road when we left Firefly. Finding Firefly to return the car was brilliant - thank you. "
" Was great to deal with "
" Pickup and dropoff were great "
" Autoeurope rep error in ordering car from wrong Rome airport quickly corrected "
" Cheap and cheerful though off airport transfer on collection day involved difficulty in locating pick up bus stop, long wait for transport and long queue at office. Drop off very efficient indeed "
" Very pleased, almost new car, friendly efficient desk staff Will defintely use again "
" Auto europe shows the car provider before you book. Very helpful staff "
" on site provider. recommended "
" I've used Auto Europe around 20 times for car hire in Italy, always successfully. This time I was concerned that because our flight arrived after 22:00 there might be a problem getting the car. Auto Europe customer service were quick and efficient in checking that all would be well. "
" Inexpensive, but no problems. Importantly, they have a 'return full of fuel' policy, unlike many companies who use the rip-off 'return empty ' policy - something that in practice no-one wants to risk. "
" the instructions for collecting the car were misleading and also the insurance cover was not clearly explained. "
" good simple service easy access from airport short transfer time. "
" Please make your pickup instructions precise. Tired travellers with children don't want to be hanging around outside the airport hours after their arrival. "
" Pickup instructions were terrible and inaccurate. A transfer driver from another company told us roughly where to wait for the mini bus to take us to the Firefly office and our car. It took several telephone calls and over 1.5 hrs to reach our car. The minibus driver apparently missed us a couple of times but we are pretty conspicuous so he could have approached us to check who we were. After that it was great. Very helpful instructions, guidance and service "
" Very good service and very helpful on freephone number when booking. "
" I was kept waiting, I believe unnecessarily by the lady behind the booking desk while she took a call. I am sure it was of personal nature. However, when finished she waved a hand at me with no smile or any greeting and demanded my license, credit card and voucher code in a very rude manner. She barely exchanged another word and sent us on our way with a general wave in the general direction of the garage. The only other curt comment was for me to keep my coffee away from the counter as it could spill on the computer over a metre away! My wife and friends were equally bemused. Whilst we got the car we hoped for thanks to Auto Europe, it was clean but damaged with significant scrapes and dents to both sides. "
" Flexibility of the car hire rather than using airport shuttle transfer gave us the ability to visit Ostia. I have used AutoEurope previously and would use them again as they provide very good value for money. "
" Smooth hire and return of nice Smart car. The CDW additional cover was paid to AutoEurope in advance, then Thrifty insisted on a further E800 bond in case of damage or legal charges. "
" Everything worked fine thanks "
" Thrifty were efficient at check-in and return, but the car (a Nissan Micra) was a rather beaten-up tired offering. It had done 91000km, the carpet was worn through, outside almost every panel had damage and although it went along the motorway OK it sounded pretty "ropey" and I wondered somethimes if it would get me back to Rome. "
" I like Auto Europe because i get so much choice & good quotes. "
" Professional & accommodating service is excellent.. "
" Fantastic very help full and time to explain things "
" Nice staff and have time to help. And very professions with a smile "
" Excellent - very easy to make the reservation "
" Excellent - clean new model BMW that was a pleasure to drive "
" Relatively easy booking process. "
" helpful staff, relatively easy pick up process and great car. Easy drop off with no dramas. "
" very easy to book "
" well satisfied they were very helpfull will give them top marks "
" we have used auto europe , they are really good at obtaining good deals. "
" we arrived late on the saturday night,and our check in went very smoothly.Andrea.Lorenzeti, booked us in and explained the insurance requirements to us.he was very professional with us, nothing was to much trouble to explain.He then showed us our car which was an upgrade we were not expecting, and marked out all the blemishes with the car.HE made sure before we left we were comfortable with everything.on returning the car , once again this was professionally done. No nasty shocks.we would recommend this unit to our friends.this was unlike our nightmare at firefly bergamo , it cost us over 200 , and the staff were qute rude.what a relief to have someone like andrea on your staff. "
" Easy booking. No problems. "
" We were very satisfied by the quality of the vehicle and by the service that we received at the rental office in Italy but we found the Firefly rental office at Ciampino airport very difficult to find. There are a number of different shuttle buses that go to different rental offices at different locations and it was not at all clear which bus we were meant to go on. The bus that we needed to get was not labeled with 'firefly' at all and neither was the bus stop so it left us very uncertain (& stressed!) late at night as to how to get to the rental office to pick up the car. The bus stop and the bus need to have a 'firefly' sign to reassure customers that they are in the right place. Other than that; great. "
" The price was very competitive and the booking was easy to do. "
" The service was bad & the instructions given were not adhered to by them. At Fiumicino airport the instructions were to go to bus stop 10 which I did but the shuttle bus did not arrive. I had to make several calls to them from my mobile before they responded & they then told me there were two bus stop 10s & the one I needed was on the upper floor. This should have been made clear in the instructions. After several calls to them they did eventually send a shuttle but it was almost 2 hours later than the agreed pick up time. I/we, weren't the only ones who had to wait a long time for the shuttle to arrive. They gave me a map to find my way to return the vehicle but it was illegible. I would use Auto Europe again but definitely not Firefly. "
" GPS is becoming a low cost option from many vehicle manufacturers. It would be an excellent product differentiator to include GPS as a no cost or very low cost option. As you renew your fleet, suggest GPS becomes your standard "
" Car ran great. Could have been cleaned before we picked up, but wasn't a big deal. Inside glass should be cleaned, as it had a film that obscured night vision. I'll most certainly rent from Auto Europe again. "
" Auto Europe are very helpful when I changed my booking from one car booking to three for the same period. "
" They do not have a great customer services in Rome Italy not very professional compared to England. The cars are not always that nice wheel hubs missing, things broken inside not nice to drive around in car that looks like that for your holiday especially as it is very expensive to hire in Italy. "
" Perfect "
" Perfect "
" Easy to book,terms and conditions clear and easy to understand in a complex market, no issues at all. Completely trouble free! "
" Prompt and courteous service at the desk. Clear terms and conditions. No hard sell for extra insurance. A delight! "
" Why is car hire so paper intensive & time-consuming at the point of pick-up? It takes far, far longer to hire a car than to book a flight or a holiday. "
" The desk was understaffed: we waited for one hour and ten minutes, while the two men on duty typed out all of the details that could so easily be done online: passport number, driving licence number, home address, credit card details etc etc etc. When we finally reached the front of the queue, we were told that "we were lucky, the wait had been THREE HOURS that afternoon!". The car did not have a full tank of fuel: at least 5 litres/one gallon down on full (I know from filling the tank up that the needle goes past "Full" when it is fully topped up, this wasn't anywhere near): I took a photograph of the gauge if anyone is interested. Scratches were indicated in incorrect positions, but this didn't lead to any issues. "
" Good service, ticked all my boxes "
" Excellent, very good service, quick and easy at both ends. "
" Car had many scratches and dents, plus one wheel trim missing. It was high mileage, and " sounded rough". The steering was clunky, but it got us around OK, and was cheap. Transfers were fine, could have been more precise about pick up point at airport. Generally satisfied because of price. "
" As above "
" Appeared to be the cheapest around and all dealt with very efficently. "
" Directions to where to be collected at Airport could have been clearer - otherwise all very efficent. "
" Auto europe is doing a good job. "
" I had to wait a long time in the queue at the AVIS office inside terminal building in Rome for my turn. The chap at the 2nd office wasn't friendly at all. They need more training in hospitality. Again long wait for the driver to bring the car from somewhere outside. "
" Air Con did not work. Check before rental. Upgraded to better car "
" Good deal, on airport pick up from Maggiore "
" New car, pick up and drop off easy (immediate check and sign off of rental) "
" Good service. I had to cancel a booking earlier in the year which did not incur any cost. This was one of the reasons I returned to auto-Europe. "
" Overall Thrifty was OK. My only criticism was the poor hand back process. It took a while to get my car checked and other people were allowed to jump queue. "
" Reserving the car online was relatively simple and your forms were easy to navigate. Overall, no problem here but we will never use Hertz in Rome again. "
" Absolutely absurd. After flying for over 8 hrs and then forced to wait in line for over 2 hrs to get to the Hertz desk was inexcusable. Then, the mini-van we reserved 2 months prior was not available. With 5 in our group with luggage, we were barely able to fit into the SUV we were forced to take. We had carry on luggage between our legs and on our laps, which was most unpleasant for our 4 hour trip to Tuscany. Will NEVER use Hertz in Rome again. "
" Easy to book but see comments below. "
" We were kept waiting at the airport for an hour waiting to be collected by the Firefly minibus, and even then I think only as a result of my three mobile phone telephone calls to the office. It transpired that the office girl was working alone and was the same person that came out and picked us up. We were taken to a dirty lock up to collect the car and we were told that the lock up was being closed down and the vehicle was to be returned to the new premises. The car was a Doblo 1.6 with 60k mileage and was like driving a minibus, nothing like the Ford Fusion I was expecting. I was also filthy inside and out. When I asked if there was a change of vehicle available I was told that this was the only one. However, vehicle return went well. "
" Excellent. A good site, wide choice of vehicle types - always finds a good car provider in Italy. "
" Excellent. Great, quick service from the airport to the cars. Friendly, helpful office staff and good, competitive prices for well maintained cars. Very easy place to find on return - signs to Ostia and look for the water tower. Have used them three times in 2013 for business trips to Lazio area and will use them again. "
" Pleased with overall service. Would use the company again. "
" Good and swift service, both at check out and check in. Would use the company again. "
" Excellent as always "
" When returning this car on April 19, a Locauto representative identified a small 5-6cm superficial scratch on the front bumper. In order to see this scratch, I had to bend down on my hands and knees to see it. I was horrified to discover that Locauto charged me 332,36 for this. The reason I am so angry is because the scratch is so low and difficult to see. I am angry because I was asked to inspect a car for damage and defects before my rental but I have never been asked to go on my hands and knees to look for damage. I am angry because thediagram of the car (used to mark any defects with an X)makes no provision to mark any defects which are so low or under the car. I am so angry of my treatment by Locauto. "

" Excellent website, great range of options and locations to pick-up and drop-off. Very good, competitive prices in comparison with similar companies. Have used Auto Europe several times and have never been disappointed with their service, their price or with the car provided. "
" Helpful efficient service from the friendly staff at Fiumicino, most of whom seem to speak excellent English - an excellent operation in all respects. Used Firefly in January (when it was Hertz) and again in April. Trouble-free, excellent cars. Close to Fiumicino airport and very easy to find on return at end of trip. Will definitely use you again. "
" very friendly and helpful i' will use you againhappy to use you "
" happy to use you again "
" I was disappointed at time of booking to find a different approach to the booking; when I received the cheapest quote with Advantage, I understand, disadvantages started arriving as I proceeded with the booking, e.g. off-site collection, additional fuel full/full, empty/empty alternatives, daily surcharge if we were given a diesel engined car (in fact we were given an unleaded vehicle. This was very much in contrast to the last contract we had with you - Advantage rental agreement 90365825-4Pisa Airport 1-11 to 10-11-12.Could not complete comments below as characters used up. Advantage surely cannot have it both ways,either the car is full at the start or they should go and fill it to be in line with their side of the contract!!!Overandout "
" Car had faulty fuel gauge from the start. I was told car was full of petrol, lady actually marked the sheet 7/8 full and she said it was ok to bring it back 7/8 full (My thoughts at time were that this is not an easy task - surely the most feasible way is to fill up just before returning the car; there are usually plenty of filling stations close by eager for us to fill up!. However, when I started up the car, it registered just over half but the lady assured me the car was full, although she had 'allowed us the 7/8ths'. When in Tuscany, I reckon it had used up more than it should have from a 'full tank'...gauge seemed ok after that. This is unfair as, if I had returned the car half empty, I would have been charged to fill + a penalty! "
" Do not change the zero excess polices. In Italy, they are a must. I like website and I am pleased with selection of cars. "
" In the last 6 months I have rented from Auto Europe/Thrifty 3 times. In the next few months I have already booked another car and planning to book even more. Although I am satisfied with the rentals, I get a vibe that the service has very slightly deteriorated. First time I used the company, I was given a free upgrade - not too sure if it was part of the deal or just a nice gesture. Now it feels like here the cars are slowly getting worst and older. First time it was a brand new Citroen DS4, then a good Ypsilon and last still very decent Fiat 500 but with 60000 Km on the clock, squicky breaks and service light flashing on the dashboard. "
" We have used your service previously - and no doubt will again - simply because it was very easy to conclude all matters. However the insurance options are too confusing - surely everything can be done before you arrive at the airport - as a customer we simply want to get on our way - but insurance options appear to be a diversion tactic. However when we compared a car hire for July - you were simply not competetive - therfore have you considered some form of "customer loyalty" to ensure repeat bookings are with you rather than someone else. Regards Mr & Mrs Arnone "
" So easy to deal with - it was a pleasure - to see such professional people. We pointed out there was minor damage not shown on the document - and LOCAUTO came out immediately inspected the damage - agreed - took a photo and gave us a copy - in under 2-3 mins. "
" Please make clear pick up is off site at Rome Fiumicino airport, where appropriate. "
" Car not very clean inside and smelt of cigarette smoke, otherwise fine. "
" Excellent service - all worked well - actually got the make and model of car requested "
" Very very good - quick pick up and drop off Would use again "
" No suggestions to make. Everything was excellent about this car hire operation. "
" No suggestions or comments. I've used Advantage Roma before and it is an excellent operation in all respects. They take you from the terminal to your car and it is very easy to find on the way back. The staff all have excellent skills in other languages. "
" Great deal thank you very much but I found unfair to be charged for the full fuel thank at 2 euro a litre instead of the real price in motorway beetwen 1.7-1.8 euro. Kind regards Antonio "
" Great deal thank you very much but I found unfair to be charged for the full fuel thank at 2 euro a litre instead of the real price in motorway beetwen 1.7-1.8 euro. Kind regards Antonio "
" Please make clear when car choice is first made that the pick up point is away from the main terminal - e.g. Rome Fiumicino "
" Only one man covering Avis and Budget desks together at airport in Rome. "
" Excellent Service from Auto Europe. Used for over 10 years and always good. "
" Long delay at Rome Airport due to lots of clients and only two staff at Budget/Avis desk. However the staff on duty were efficient and very good and polite and tried their best to help as soon as the queues disappeared. "
