I ended up paying more than I had banked on. I purchased insurance at the counter, which wasn't an option in the online booking, and turned out to be several times the rental. But the car was clean modern and easy to use, and the staff where helpfully.

Sixt confirmed my reservation and took my payment. But when I arrived to pick up my car, they said no cars were available. They have not yet refunded my money. Avoid Sixt!
