The service attitude was terrible. They gave us an old Italian car with a bad smell.

The car rental process at Munich Airport is indeed very busy. Europcar, SIXT, AVIS, and Hertz counters all have long lines. Europcar had five out of seven desks open, which was less than other companies who had all their counters open. However, a positive aspect was their numbered ticket system, so you don't have to stand in line after taking a number; you can browse nearby shops. This time, I waited nearly 40 minutes to get the car. I noticed that foreigners finished their process in just a few minutes; it took me less than ten minutes, but the groups of Chinese people in front of me took significantly longer, especially one group that took over half an hour.

The rental cost did not match the amount shown at drop-off, being about 30 euros higher. The actual charge was significantly higher than shown at drop-off, around 40 euros more, which was very disappointing.

Detailed explanations

They rented me a SEAT manual FR model. No queues, just inspection, check the contract, sign and drive away. That simple. However, I couldn't understand all the detailed contract terms. There were two minor issues, and it took a while to communicate with the staff since language was the biggest barrier on this trip. But the staff was very patient and thorough in explaining it to me. I managed to understand most of it, so I signed and drove away.
