Please read all of this review it might help you when you return your car, We arrived to pick our car up we chose a cheap car a fiat 500. We were told we had a convertible which was nice (I guess all the regular 500s were out) it was actually a really nice hybrid convertible. We were asked about excess insurance but we had already taken it out privately for €12 (thanks Martin Lewis) he just said ok, no hard sell etc which was nice. We paid the €500 deposit and off we went This is the text we got from Hertz about returning the car ; RETURNS: Follow signs for parking P5 / rental cars - Make sure to enter in the specific parking for car rentals located next to public parking. Entrance free (no ticket needed). Use key box for return only if returning during out of opening hours. In all other case keys must be returned directly to Hertz staff. So we went to P5 and right next to the public car park there is a hire car park with hertz on the sign, so we left it there. We took the keys back and a rather unfriendly lady said she would check the car so we told her where it was and she said it was wrong. We explained we even phoned and they told us not to return it to the same place we got it from but apparently that's where you're supposed to leave it. How confusing I could say the language barrier didn't help but the text was in English. Anyway I went and got it and she looked it over and told me to open it, I explained she had the keys by now so she handed me them I opened it and she took them back and got in! Everything was ok and at the end of the day as some other reviews they never claimed any damage etc. TO RETURN THE CAR, the entrance is directly in front of the petrol station next to the car parks in fact you have to pretty much cut in front of the pumps to get to the barrier.

Our costs include purchasing, storing and managing our own fuel supplies, or refilling the tank off site, plus manpower and administration costs.
