Germany-Austria-Switzerland-Germany

The insurance details were not accurately described; it didn't cover everything as claimed. We ended up paying an additional 500 euros at the counter.

There weren't many people at the store, so we were helped immediately. The only issue was that they gave us the keys and told us the parking spot number, so we had to find the car ourselves, which took us a while.

When picking up the car, I was informed that it hadn't been returned yet, so we had to wait around 2 hours.

The Hertz rental counter at Frankfurt Airport is very prominent, and the staff are enthusiastic. They held the Bus for us even though our flight was delayed. The procedures are simple.

When we arrived in Frankfurt, the Mercedes 8-seater we reserved was unavailable, and they insisted on giving us a Ford 7-seater instead. We had eight people, how could we all fit? We went back to negotiate with the lady at the counter. She insisted that only the 7-seater was available. The two cars are of different sizes and not even in the same group. She was clearly lying, saying that the rest were all 9-seaters that required extra payment to upgrade. We argued that this was Hertz's problem and they needed to resolve it. She eventually said she would try to get a car from a nearby location but couldn't guarantee it. She asked us to wait on a nearby sofa, but we insisted on waiting at the counter. In less than a minute, she rummaged around and suddenly found the 8-seater Mercedes right next to the Ford. This is blatant lying. If not for the communication between Zuzuche and Hertz, I would have sent an email to complain. I have Hertz's gold card and this is the kind of deceptive service I get!
