There was no one at the office in Orvieto to drop off car. Two other customers waited with us for two hours to leave car. Despite calling twice and being told that someone would be there in five minutes no one showed up. All three left keys in a broken lock box at the office.

I have returned the car in FCO airport and reviewed it together with a Hertz representative. He confirmed everything was in order and after signing a tablet said he will send a confirmation email. Weeks later I get a letter on post saying that the car, which I returned in perfect condition has marks on it *many weeks later* and despite reviewing it with a Hertz representative (there were 3 of us in the car as well we all examined the car carefully and between the 4 people seeing it no one saw anything). I didn't know these kind of scams can happen in Europe. Shocking.

Did not except free upgrade coupon. Quote rate was $105 final rate was was $214. Misleading. I’m a gold member with Hertz and was treaded very poorly. Said no upgrade was available and they had about 50-75 cars in the lot.Gave me the free upgrade that Hertz gave me as a reward. Charged me the quoted rate. No signage at drop off on where to park the vehicle.

Nothing was exceptional. Parts is the experience were d fine and other parts were terrible.I booked a Mercedes Benz and was given a FIAT!!! They said it was the same category but there is no universe where those two brands are on the same levels. Total scam. My flight got in two hours late so they apparently gave my car away. I looked on the website and the car I was given was a third of the price of the car I had booked. Very bad, very unimpressed.

Staff was helpful, car was cleanThe check in process was pretty long, I was quoted 30 minutes and it took closer to an hour an half. The car pricing was also never broken down to me and the receipt wasn't itemized so I am not sure what I was paying for. The price was different than the price I paid online so I'm not sure what the extra fees were. The price could have been warranted but I wish the receipt would tell me what I was paying for.

Picking up the car took almost an hour. The thrifty counter was closed and everyone had to pickup their cars at the Hertz counter. There were only two people working the desk and each rental took so long that there was a huge line out the door. It delayed our departure so we missed an appointmentMore people working, faster service

How Did They Make Money?We rented a small SUV (Fiat 500S) from Florence, Italy and dropped off in Rome, Italy. We had the car a week and the charge was 33Euros (about $40) FOR THE WEEK!!! With taxes and fees the total was 126 Euros. The vehicle had a GPS so we didn't have to pay extra for that. It was awesome having the freedom to drive through Tuscany and stop wherever we wanted and sightsee.

4.4 Okay28 Oct 2019
Upon returning the car in good condition, we were hit with 270 euros in unexpected charges, including 150 euros for a collision damage waiver we expressly declined at the outset. The rental itself was only 158 euros so that alone doubled the price. Enterprise said they had no ability to review the charges—they appear to have just licensed their name to a local company. Do not rent from here or expect that the Enterprise name means any kind of quality or accountability.
4.8 Okay21 Apr 2018
Always naaty suprisesCar was great, newish with good features and very clean.Whenever I rent a car I go in ready to have a battle over extra charges. How ever much research I do I know that when I go to pick it up there will be some sort of extra charge. On this occasion there was 2! Deluxe damage waiver cover, to avoid the ludicrously high excess €1800!!! In the event the car gets damaged. Thia cover cost almost as much as the car hire itself, I wasn't offered any options for level of cover, but I'm assuming as this was referred to as deluxe on my receipt there may have been other cheaper options that may have suited my needs, but no one mentioned these to me. Then secondly a €20 charge if I wanted to return the vehicle at 10pm ( as had been stated on my initial hire request that was quoted on - as there was a charge for returning the vehicle outside of normal working hours. I hate hate hate renting Cara, and it is because there are always hidden charges sold to me out of fear. An awfully customer experience, and as soon as a provider offers clear pricing up front with no surprise charges they will get my custom every time! Based on my previous experience with enterprise I don't expect any response to this feedback. Your adverts in the UK state, UK car hire with US customer expeeience. Well you live up to that in some respects; the US are masters of the extra hidden charges!!

1.9 Horrible20 Aug 2021
Hello. We had a very unpleasant experience returning this rental car in Naples, Italy. The information you sent us regarding the dropoff location was inaccurate, and the complete lack of signage made it impossible to find the dropoff location. As we were travelling internationally, neither of our US-based phones were able to access data, and we were relying on downloaded Google maps. The info on our reservation email says: Drop-off August 16, 2021 3:00 PM Presso Star Hotel Terminus - NP5 Pickup:Pizza Garibaldi 92 Napoli, 80142 IT (39) 081 284041 Latitude: 40.851826, Longitude: 14.271444 "Presso Star Hotel Terminus - NP5" sends us nowhere, and the Avis pin on the map is also inaccurate (see the first image. this is the taxi turnaround for the train station). "Pickup:Pizza Garibaldi 92" took us to the alley on the backside of a hotel. The coordinates point to the pedestrian-only plaza on the North side of the same hotel. When I finally parked illegally to run into the station and call the number over public wifi, the agent gave me an address that lead us to the entrance of an underground parking lot a couple of blocks North. Not only was this incredibly frustrating, but driving around for hours looking caused us to miss our train. I would like for Kayak to refund us the cost of rebooking that train, which came to 126.80 Euros-which included a substantial upcharge due to the last-minute booking.

I was expecting to rent an Audi A3 manual convertible or equivalent, but when I arrived at the pickup, the only car available was a Fiat automatic convertible.

1.9 Horrible1 Sep 2021
A horrible service! I rented a car for 1 day The gear of the car was very bad and dangerous! The car was in a dangerous condition!!! I drove back to the station and asked for a refund because it was too late for my trip They made me cancel my reservation and kept the money!!!! Not recommend at all!!! Do not rent a car there

The staff was friendly even though inaccurate, the car was fine.They force you to buy crazy high insurance, are not accurate in their pricing and or car selection. None of it made any sense to me or others around me. My bills was tripled by the time I left the counter!
2.0 Mediocre2 Sep 2019
Staff did not want to rent me a car because I did not have an "International Driver's Licence". I have rented cars in over 25 countries in 3 continents without needing that. I went across the street to Europcar and immediately rented a car with my home license.Common sense.

It took ~25 min for them to bring up the car from the garage. This was the only negative of the whole experience.
10.0 Excellent22 Jun 2019
It was all good, staff was greatThis is a very, very challenging location for getting in and out in a rental car. Not anybody's fault but the airport rental location is better
6.8 Good28 Aug 2016
Renters Beware!Without a GPS returning the vehicle nearly impossible at he Florence airport. No address on the return documents. Had to follow a return bus from the airport to the car return location.Documents are only in Italian. Not a clear understanding f what you are signing. Sixth in US has no affiliation with the company in Italy. It is a separate franchise. Hint: pic up full coverage on the rental vehiclle, or count the scratches and photography the body before leaving the lot. Make sure someone there signs off on any damage before you leave the lot if you don't get full coverage. $20 Euro a day for full coverage. A rip off..

Nothing, had to cancel due to complications with system.Your system is flawed if you have to adjust reservation. It doesn't work and no o e answers the phone to call for fixes.
5.6 Okay26 Aug 2018
Pick Up/Drop Off Needs ImprovementThe car itself was in good condition.The line to check in was ridiculously long, the longest I have ever seen. It took 45 minutes to reach the counter. The line was as long when we returned the car. My father had a separate contract and wanted to pay cash, but couldn’t wait in such a long line. The counter outside to pick up the car was overwhelmed and we had to wait 30 minutes for one of our cars to be ready. There was no area to sit or get out of the sun.
3.6 Mediocre3 Jul 2018
A nightmareThat we actually found the rental car return lot.I would strongly suggest no one return a car to Florence as their location is difficult to find, signage is absent, and it was stressful navigating our way because car rental is not right at airport. Check-in is at a mobile home-like setting.
2.0 Mediocre29 May 2018
A nightmareNothingWe got to the desk and they couldn’t find our reservations even though we had our reservation number. I called your 800 number and they said there’s nothing they could do. We were at the airport rental car counters for over 4 hrs. We had to make new reservations on line and wait to get the car. The rental car counters in Florence are full of people and it takes hours to get things done.
8.4 Excellent3 Apr 2018
They had an automaticLiked that I can get automatic. Very confusing about fuel surcharge. Said I didn’t want it for 95 euros but it was on my receipt so I didn’t fill it up. At drop off I was told that was just shown but would have not charged so I got stuck paying that and a 36 Euro additional service charge.
2.0 Mediocre6 Sep 2017
Some issuesThe person at the counter was pleasant. The cars were fine.We were informed at the counter that we would be charged identical prices for the two cars that were rented. However this was NOT what happened. The second car ended up costing more than twice what we were told the price would be. We also should have been informed about ZTL restrictions

Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) & Theft Protection Waiver
Collision damage waiver and theft protection are insurance options that cover renters from paying high penalty fees if the car is stolen or returned damaged. Some Florence car providers already include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) and Theft Protection Waiver into the rental price but not all of them. We recommend always be aware of your coverage when renting a car in in Florence.

Deductible
Keep in mind that car hire excess insurances often have a deductible clause, which is the amount you’ll have to pay if something happens during the time of your rental. If you want to avoid unwanted surprises, you should consider adding a no-deductible option to your Florence car rental.
Top tips for renting a car in Florence
- Florence is great as a homebase for travelers looking to visit Tuscany, especially with a hire car, as there are a plethora of day trip options available. For instance, travelers could drive to the neighboring cities of Cortona, Chianti, or Siena. Chianti is particularly great for travelers looking to drive across the Tuscan countryside to enjoy some of Italy’s most famous wine country.
- Need to pick up a hire car before you start your journey in Italy? If you flight lands at Florence Airport, you will find the majority of the hire car companies just outside, adjacent to the airport’s main terminal. There are a number of hire car counters in the airport’s lobby as well.
- One of the particular traits of Italian cities is the Limited Traffic Zones (ZTLs in Italian). These zones are not open for normal traffic and are, for the most part, only accessible to residents who live and work there. Drivers should keep this in mind when deciding upon hotels and travel itineraries in the city.
- Morning rush hour typically lasts from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. in Florence, and travelers are highly advised to avoid it if possible. There is also an evening rush hour that goes from 4:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. and largely affects drivers leaving the downtown area. Other areas to avoid during rush hour include the streets surrounding the Giardino della Fortezza, as this area in particular is plagued with traffic.

Coupes, sedans and compacts are absolutely recommended for would-be renters visiting Florence. Larger vehicles such as SUVs or even vans will not find the smaller streets in Florence comfortable or inviting. Streetside parking with a larger vehicle would be a struggle.
Florence’s speed limits are set to the same standards as most cities in Italy, with metropolitan areas featuring speed limits of 50 km/h (31 mph) and rural roads around 90 km/h (56 mph). Minor highways tend to have speed limits of 110 km/h (68 mph), whereas larger highways usually post speed limits of 130 km/h (80 mph).
Florence, while having plenty to offer, does not offer cheap gas. Average prices in the city are much higher than the prices seen in the U.S., though they are right in line with the prices typically seen in Europe. Florence’s average petrol prices sit at around €1.63 ($1.86) per liter of gas. In terms of gallons, that comes out to an average cost of €6.17 ($7.02) per gallon of gas.
Parking can be extremely tough to come by in Florence, and drivers are highly advised to stick to private parking garages and lots. Streetside parking is scarce and competition for the few available spots is fierce. It will likely be much easier to park outside of the city center and then take public transport in.
