Cons:
We passed a Hertz lot off the freeway, spent a good 15mins trying to get to it only to find out that it wasn't the proper drop-off location. The paper work didn't have an exact address for drop off.5.2 Fair

The line to pick up was a joke... After getting off the plane the last thing you want to do is stand idly in a queue, and to make matters worse all the other car rental places were queue-free10.0 Wonderful

Sep. 2019
Pros:
The staff was quick, clear, friendly, patient and overall highly efficient.Cons:
The car I requested was unavailable and the car we did receive was not nearly as comfortable or as efficient when it came to fuel economy. I bought an insurance policy through Allianz and it didn't show up in the system which made our pick up a bit more difficult. No fault of the Sixt representativ10.0 Wonderful

Pros:
The return of the car was very smooth and the female employee who took care of us was very kind and expedient. The pick up was quick once we had keys and the car was in good condition.Cons:
The women at the counter were not helpful and the service was poor. They did not know the terms and conditions of the company (i.e. what coverage is included in a specific fare) and they didn’t have them handy so we could read them ourselves. After asking several times for them, they realized they were framed in small print on the wall right next to them. The car report was missing several damages so we had to take photos upon picking it up. There also seems to be a glitch on the website as I could not access the terms and conditions for the Avis office in Faro in English, even if that was an option on your menu. This would all have been ok had the Avis staff been more professional and experienced.8.4 Very good

Cons:
Car inspection before and after all done in darkness. We ended up paying for tyre damage which we didn’t do. When they inspected vehicle st the end of the hire they ignored all the dents and bashes shown at pick up but went straight to one of the tyres and pointed out where it had been kerbed!!!!3 locations in Faro

Aug. 2018
Pros:
Friendly, professional and efficient pick up. New car that worked well and was clean.Cons:
The drop off was a bit of a mess. I was sent to one office, then another where there was a queue but initially told I should go back to the first office before being told to join the second office with the long queue ... hope you’re still following. After that I’d to wait a further ten minutes before they realised that most of us in the queue were dropping off so they gave us priority as we had flights to catch. Other than that everything went well.10.0 Wonderful
May 2017
Pros:
Staff were quick and friendly. Although the wait in line was a little long. Car itself was in very good condition. Hyundai i30. Only issue I had with it was the parcel shelf in the back had been broken by a previous user and it made noises whilst driving so I had to remove it5 locations in Faro
