I initially thought renting a car in Italy would be complicated. But Hertz made it very simple. When asked if I needed additional insurance, I declined and they didn’t push it further. Driving in Italian cities can be challenging as people drive fast and don’t follow rules. However, I enjoyed driving on Italian highways; everyone drives fast but follows the rules, similar to Northern Europe.

Usually, if there are no similar vehicles available, other companies provide the same or a higher class car. Hertz replaced my Mercedes C-Class with an Audi Q3 and told me they were the same class, which was very unsatisfactory.

The waiting time in line was too long... but the service attitude was great.

Received two charges of 31 euros each four months after returning home. I got a parking ticket in Sorrento, Italy, and paid it in cash on the spot. I suspect someone is stealing money. Be very careful when parking a rental car in Italy, they're desperate for money now.

Consistently excellent: car condition, service attitude, and the staff even helped with luggage. Great!
