Hidden fees ended paying $2600 instead of $600Reviewed 9 Apr 2024

The staff was very helpful. They were super great with telling me how to use the car. I have only driven in the US so I'd never driven on the left, and he was very helpful with giving me info. One thing is the building says Hertz and I thought we went to the wrong location, I didn’t know it was Dollar as well, however that is minor.Reviewed 15 Nov 2023

The pick-up was super quick but actually too quck where the attendant didn't walk us around the vehicle to show us noted damage or vehicle features, especially when the cars operate on the opposite side from North America. It wasn't that they were busy, seemed like he wanted to get back to the boys for a smoke. The car was clean and we had no issues. Dropoff was quick and easily accessibleReviewed 8 Nov 2023

Cons:Ordered a minivan in advance. When arrived they had none. Forced into a 900eu upgrade to the largest vehicle, a BMW X5 which barely fit 4 adults, one child seat and our luggage. We were cramped for 2 weeks of driving. Tried unsuccessfully to swap cars for a minivan in Belfast.Reviewed 14 Apr 2019
