car rental
Pros: we were given a much smaller car than we asked for. when we asked them for a car the size we ordered and we were told take it or leave thats all they had. they made no effort to at all to find us another car. we asked for a refund, they told us to go upstairs as they couldn't do it from their office, well, imsure you can guess what happened because nobody seemed to know what they were doing. so no refund and a most horrible start to our vacation. so we ended up paying for a car we didn’t have
.
Cons: poor customer service.
Cons: Tank was not full when we received the car; the agent tried to trick us into upgrading for a good price, only to discover that the charge would have been double that of the car reserved.
Pros: The staff was not helpful at all. They wanted to persuade us to break the deal bought through This website and sing a new agreement which was at the end much more expensive.
Pros: Nice car, but smaller than what was promised
Cons: Drop off was difficult without any help. Cost was much higher than estimated originally
Pros: Their printers were broken and the actual car pickup is several blocks away. They give you a printout with directions and send you across multiple intersections and steep ramps to get to the -1 level. It's probably the worst / sketchiest car rental I've made and I've rented all over the world.
Pros: Friendly staffer at malpensa airport.
Cons: After hours Key drop box at canazei office.
Also, was disappointed to have rented automatic Audi a3 or similar and getting a manual fiat 500.
Cons: I Order bigger car as we have. But I must take because it’s only this car in rent office. Sistem in Office don’t work. I waiting 30min for manually contract. I must rentun car I another place because it’s close office when I rent car...
Unforeseen charges at pickup
Cons: They charged me 60€ additional insurance even though I had previously payed 36€ for 3rd party insurance through Kayak.
Money back
Cons: I didn’t rent the car because Avis employee in Malpensa airport told me they can’t accept my driving license, and I paid 36$ as damage assurance and I sent to you from 4 days to send back because I didn’t take the car , and till now no answer
Cons: Avis did not honor kayaks reservation in malpesa airport milan.
They said the car that kayak held for us does not exist. They wanted to give us a small car . Very disappointed at avis and kayak
Just a mess
Pros: NothIng, cancelled my reservation and payed more at different rental.
Cons: 98 people ahead of me with only 2 counter open. At 4pm, when I got there, there were still people who came on a 11 am flight waiting to be served.
Hertz, eurocar etc has no such issues.
Easy drop-off even in busy city
Pros: Drop off was smooth and easy

Hertz, eurocar etc has no such issues.
Cons: Agent tried to up-sell me to a bigger car because they didn't have the car I reserved. When I just said I wanted the car I reserved and dont want to pat more, she gave me the bigger car anyway. Sleazy
Cons: Very bad service. Waited 1.5 hrs to get car. Then was given a different car than what I had reserved. Then ended up being billed more than what I had agreed.
Pros: Nothing
Cons: When we arrived to the counter, there were 24 customers waiting in line in front of us. We cancelled our reservation and reserved from the agency next to it.
Charged extra costs for damages that I am not responsible
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Extremely long waiting and worst customer service experienced at a rent car. Never will come back.
I have an issue at checkout
Pros: good car
Cons: I have reached out to Customer Service because I was charged for insurance and wasn't properly told that I was agreeing to a cost that was 140% higher than my original estimate. It has been 3 working days and no response.
Rental car returns in Milan at Malpensa
Pros: We rented a huge van for 5 people and 6 bags. It was perfect but BARELY for the streets of Lakes Como and Maggiore. All went well, even with a little scraping damage (virtually unavoidable as evidenced by the locals' cars with their many signs of road rash). Budget was helpful in suggesting I buy the local insurance...DO IT
Cons: Rental car return signage at MXP is unlighted and virtually non-existent. If your rental car has a nav system, set the lot you pick it up in as a waypoint AS SOON AS YOU GET THE CAR. Then, return it to that same waypoint. The nav system defaults to the terminals and then you are relying on just the ill-lit, BAD signage.
Car rental Italian style
Pros: Nothing
Cons: The inner-European flight arrival was 2 hours delayed. Budget told us that they had given the car away and we H.D. to rent a new even smaller car for 400 plus euro more than the original deal.
It was very bad experience
Pros: The car was nice
Cons: When I arrived to the location they upgraded my car to Prestige car but i refused because it was expensive then the manager gave me offer for only 35€ extra per day and gave me additional device for internet for free he said it comes with the car so the total should be 210$ CAD and 105€. Which equals around 250€
And the amount they blocked on my card they said its not the final price and my final price will be cheaper if I return the car full with gas
Upon returning the car the final price was 410€ and when I asked them why they told me because of many extra hiding cost which they never told me about when they gave me the car,
They charged me for the highest insurance package also 39.71€ for the internet device which they told me its for free and also location fees of 53.66€ !!!
And when I tried to explain that to the agent at budget office he was so rude and Told me that what u signed for and after long discussion he gave a discount of 69€ only and asked me to walk away because he is busy and wasted a lot of time with me
My final bill was 341.11€ while it should be 250€ at max
I have been charged 91€ extra and got very bad customer service experience
Cons: Pick up was bad, lots of people was waiting in line.
Only two customer service available.
Order premium car but wasn’t available and ended up with what they have at the moment. Too expensive for car they offered, but have no choice.
Drop off was ok.
Expensive Upsell
Pros: The compact car that I wanted wasn't available. In order to get a car with decent GPS, I had to pick a more expensive vehicle.
Cons: The cost was about double what I had planned to spend. I told the agent that I didn't want to prepay for gas and she put it on the contract anyway. I didn't notice until I left the airport. Pickup at Malpensa was chaotic and slow due to construction.
Cons: We were refused the car as we did not have International Drivers’ licences. Have hired cars in Europe and Italy before and no one has ever requested this. Lost the full amount paid and all our plans nearly ruined - fortunately another car rental company had no such policy and rented us a car - at vast expense!
Feel like i got ripped off
Cons: I eventually paid more than twicw what i ordered. The insurance did not cover for budget. I di not intend to reserve a car fro kayak. It feels like a sales person at the lical budget just tried to get more and more if my money. Maybe he succeeded in the short term, but in the ling term , a client is list.

Pros: Very efficient.
Cons: Choice of car
Cons: Huge, hour long wait to get the car. No seating in waiting area. Terribly difficult walk to the car rental lot.
Pros: It was an drop off
Pros: Upgrade and price
Cons: Had to wait over an hour for pickup
Not open
Pros: Nothing
Cons: Although I was able to make a reservation online, the place was not open when I went to pick up the car. After waiting an hour for the place to open, I went to a different Hertz only to find out that it was a holiday and only certain locations were open. I was very frustrated by the fact that I was allowed to make an online reservation despite Hertz knowing they would be closed that day. No one ever tried to contact me and give me the heads up. Very frustrating experience, would not recommend
Terrible service
Pros: Location
Cons: Horrible wait times to pickup car even with reservation. No information on wait times or why the wait was so long. Nothing done to address the wait or the people waiting in 39 degree Celsius weather because there was no room inside. Attendant told us there was gas near the drop-off which was completely wrong.
Ready to wait 4 hours for your car? This is your chance.
Pros: Attendants were polite.
Cons: Had to wait 4 hours for a reserved, pre-paid car. Attendants say this is normal during peak months (summer and again in winter).
Not what I booked
Cons: Long time to wait for the pickup / registration desk.
Car was smaller than what I booked.
Very good service and nice car
Pros: Opportunity to get a prestige car for a reasonable upgrade
Cons: Nothing
Pros: Didn't rent in Ferno??
Sneaky Extra Charges
Pros: Nice car
Cons: I had to wait an hour for my already short rental because I wasn't directly a Hertz customer, then I wasn't informed anywhere that they charge commission for the pre-paid gas so a €70 rental cost me €115, and another €100 rental after that cost me €177. Didn't find out until the second time because I wasn't even given a proper check out service at the end of the first. Disgusting, will never use them again.
Parfait!
Pros: Brand new car! Super smooth transmission.

Didn't find out until the second time because I wasn't even given a proper check out service at the end of the first. Disgusting, will never use them again.
Pros: They gave us an upgrade.
Cons: Dollar shares employees with Hertz at the Linante airport. Directions to the rental spaces to get the car were terrible. Never saw a green bridge to cross over! Most importantly,the car's rear bumper was literally duck taped onto the car! The employee at the lot was nowhere to be found. Went back to the rental desk. The clerk came out to look for herself and then said that no one had checked the car that had been returned in the morning. Really? No one checked by 2pm? They had no other car supposedly. Fortunately, my husband is a Hertz Gold member and she provided a Hertz car and an upgrade. The whole process took 90 minutes. Terrible experience.
Off to a terribly slow start but Good overall.
Pros: The price was great, the car (Fiat 500) was perfect for a road trip in Italy and it was a great drive.
Cons: It's terribly complicated to pick up a car at Malpensa airport in Milan. It seemed like every car rental desk had everyone waiting 2 hours to be served. I think Hertz is particularly worse because they only have one desk with a handful or less of agents serving Hertz, Dollar & Thrifty rentals. First, it's not easy to see the signs that Dollar rentals can be picked up at Hertz. I lost a 1/2 hour just trying to figure out where to go to get my Dollar rental. Second, the wait was 2 hours...really 2 full hours on the morning I arrived.
It does not help that Kayak's instructions say that Dollar is "outside of the airport" which is not true. It's with all the other car rentals right in Terminal 1.
Did not exist in airport.
Cons: Dollar did not exist in this airport.
Pros: car was new
Cons: car was not clean
Cons: I had horrible service!! Our flight was delayed due to bad weather I was suppose to pick up at 9:30pm but didn't arrive till 11:30 pm. When I got there the lady said it's been cancelled and now we had to pay double the price because we didn't arrive on it. I thought we had 6 hours? Then ahe said it's cause office has been closed it's a new day. So I didn't get my rental!!!! So upset
Everything worked fine
Pros: It was delivered a car better than the one booked for the same price.
Slow check out
Pros: Easy to find the car and get out of the airport once I had my contract
Cons: Waited over an hour to get to an agent to check in and get my car. Way to few agents for the number of people renting cars. Completely unacceptable
Advertised price is NOT what you pay!
Cons: It would be more honest to include items like VAT and "other fees" that are charged by rental companies so consumer could make more accurate price comparisons. We paid almost twice the advertised price advertised on Kayak. Not happy customers.
They gave me a fricking BMW!
Pros: Seriously, that was a hell of an upgrade. Super clean and basically a new car. My wife and I were pretty stunned.
FYI - Dollar / Hertz / Thrify are all the same company.
Cons: Offices are tricky to find. Better signage or maybe a map handed out at the desk would be good.
It was terrible -- WAY WAY OVERCROWDED. Dollar is
Pros: Nothing
Cons: The wait was about 90 MINUTES! I am not joking....so I left after 30 minutes and rented from National.
Good but over priced.
Pros: Good but overpriced.
Cons: Fuel Tank was not full, There were many damages reported at the time of pickup, which they did not disclose. So I had to spend another 20 minutes to let them know and get it vouched before I start my journey. Also there was no clarity in small levies charged over and above the contract value.
Great Company
Pros: Easy access from the airport, car was clean and as discussed, the staff was helpful with our needs

Pros: Nice vehicle.
Cons: This was a bait and switch scam. I traveled with my family of 5. I chose to pick up my car at 5pm in the reservation and the other family chose noon as typically the time of day doesn’t need to be exact. When we arrived they told me I was too early and my car wasn’t there. Had to pay DOUBLE!!
Pros: The pick up was a horrible experience, I waited for 3.5 hours to for a car pick up. The drop off was three blocks away from where the address, I had to hire a cab to follow so I could make the drop off before the store closing.
Cons: Hiring courteous staff would be step one, having a plan for when the computer system is down is step two.
Pros: Not much.
Cons: We were waiting for two hours to get our car because “they didn’t have cars and we needed to wait for someone to return one.” We had boat rental reservations in Lake Como that we had to cancel since we couldn’t get there in time. I expect a little wait, but not two hours.
Pros: Costumer service representatives were nice
Cons: I was charged a 98€ fee for not having a full tank of gas even though I filled it up. They wouldn’t allow us to leave our car at other Thrifty locations
Pros: the price
Cons: 4 hours delay & wait inside the office of thrifty / Hertz to get the car
Everything was great EXCEPT the poor pickup system
Pros: Everything except pickup
Cons: Waiting in the Hertz line for almost an hour at the Malpensa airport
Pros: Nice vehicle.

Disappointed
Pros: Headline price
Cons: Check in took forever
Oil needed changed
No screen wash
Dirty car
High cost of insurance
Hard to find drop off
Credit card madness
Cons: They would not accept a debit card or American Express and therefore refused my family a vehicle even though we had paid using one of the cars. Holidayautos then refused a refund; terrible customer service. I have hired cars in many places without problems but Italy has been the only place to have such bizarre rules

If you intend to drive in the heart of Milan, definitely opt for a compact car like a Fiat 500 to effortlessly fit through the narrow lanes. A minivan or SUV are good choices if the car is parked outside the city, as they provide more space for families and good tire traction for the country roads.
In residential areas, 50 kph (31 mph) is permitted, while 90 kph (56 mph) is the limit on rural roads. Highways allow up to 130 kph (80 mph), but check the posted signs and always adhere to the written speed limit, as the police are pretty strict with street regulations in Italy.
The average price for petrol in Milan is around €1.64 per liter (which is $1.84 per ¼ gallon). Petrolstations alongside the autostrada (freeway) tend to be more expensive.
Parking in Milan requires a great deal of patience and time, so it is advisable to park in a parking lot or a P+R and walk into the city or take public transport. Curbside parking is an option and indicated with a blue line, but it is metered, so make sure to put your ticket in your windshield. A parking lot in the outskirts of the city would be Lampugnano, from which you can take the metro to the city center.
