Much better than expected!
Pros: We had reserved a car through Thrifty many months before and had worried about adequate luggage space as our daughters were joining us for the second week of our trip to Switzerland. Had also researched the waiver/insurance situation for an overseas rental and had some anxiety about it. Both agents were very helpful, flexible and patient while we made the decision ax to model. She offered us a selection which suited us well. She also accepted our coverage on our Cap One VISA, which I had researched thoroughly beforehand.
Cons: It was clear that any unrecorded scratched on the car would be a liability for us, so we were careful to use the flashlight on our phones and go over the car carefully when we were in the checkout process. It is very important that you take the time to do this AND Mark die anything you see and take it BACK into the desk fir them to record. I know you are in a hurry to get moving, but this is ESSENTIAL. And research your particular credit card coverage carefully; if it isn’t complete, you may be in a tough situation and might do better paying the waiver. Ask what deductible your coverage is; you want ZERO.

Cons: The person at the counter told me that if I returned the car a day early, I would only be charged for the days I rented the car. I returned the car a day early and they still charged me Euro 270 which was the two day rental charge - which by itself is a price gouging, exorbitant rate

Great customer service! Wonderful car
Pros: The representatives who checked us in and out were extremely friendly and polite. Because we had to wait a little extra time they upgraded us to a Mercedes. Drove the country in style! When we needed to extend the rental for a few days they gave us no hassle at all.

Good vehicle, great service
Pros: Service quality was good. Swift check-in and checkout. Car was clean and well-featured. Comfortable ride - we drove 500+ miles over 7 days and had no issues whatsoever.
Cons: WIsh someone had walked us through the features of the car, so we didn't have to look in dark corners for a USB socket or a car charger port.

Pros: Nice car with plenty of room for luggage.
Cons: We oversee the fuel level in the between the car and the inspection sheet. After we left the airport we only realize there's a difference, only half tank in the car and was mark full tank on the inspection sheet. When we returned the car the inspector insist that we top up as per the level mark on the sheet :-(( and do not want to listen to our protest. I agreed that it my fault but i feel that the rental company must also made sure the the records are done correctly.

When I returned the car there were only 2 people t
Pros: I really liked the people who booked us in and got the car for us.
Cons: When I returned the car there were only 2 people to assist and 1 would not leave the office. We could not find a space to park the car and had to circle their lot 3 times. When I explained I was next to the only service rep he said there were 3 ahead of us. I said we need to catch our plane and we left the car in space 111. He said they would take care of it and send our receipt--- no receipt has come. I want a receipt

Smooth and easy experience all the way
Pros: Staff were very helpful at Zurich airport, they were also flexible to accomodate us with the change in our flight time and pickup-drop off time. the car was pretty new and very clean and in good shape.
Cons: The Mini Cooper had the most uncomfortable seat of all the cars I have driven! I’m 180cm tall with an average body, although the drive be is fun but I don’t recommend this car for any drive longer than one hour, well this is not Hertz problem, I should complain to the car designers!!

Pros: got an upgraded size of the car as the requested size was not available, it was new and spacious and clean. Droppoing it of was a breaze, just handed the keys back and the papers and off to my flight. The location of the rental at the Zuirich airoport was great. Staff was really friendly.
Cons: Small comment that it was not very clear what to do when I came back to return the car. I parked it and then saw a Herz person working with someone else, so I waited a couple of minutes. It turned out I could just give him the keys and go, but that was not clear coming in, so it would be useful if that was said to me when I was picking up the car.

good rental
Pros: OVerall, we liked the car rather well. The GPS helped most of the time and the Hybid helped gas prices quite a bit
Cons: I would like some form of owners manual. There were several things about the car we never could figure out, like the Orange emergency alarm that would go off for reasons we never could figure out.

Pros: We liked our vehicle once we finally got what we thought we were getting. They did work with us on switching vehicles but we're not very happy about it.
Cons: The photo showed on line was iof a large van, not a minivan. We were paying about $1,500, which is a lot money for a rental vehicle. There were six adults and seven pieces of luggage. We traveled with the same group a couple of years ago and knew we needed a larger vehicle. However, when we got to Avis, they tried to send us with a minivan. We went back to the counter and they reassigned us vehicles four different times! It was a painful and lengthy process. In the end, we finally got an in between size vehicle, which worked out fine. It's just too bad they didn't give us what was pictured initially. We end up spending the first two hours of our vacation trying to get our rental vehicle straightened out, which was rather irritating for all of us!
