Pros: The staff were super helpful & efficient. Particularly Brian @ Drop Off
Cons: I had tried to get a smaller automatic car but apparently there is only one Golf @ Toulouse. I come several times a year - is it possible to reserve the only one ?
Excellent
Pros: The process was very smooth on both ends. The cars in excellent conditions
Cons: For automatic cars, it would be good to have more choices in terms of car models.
not as advertised
Pros: The car drove nicely and got good gas mileage
Cons: The Hertz rental page I selected on line showed a picture of a small van to accommodate seven adults, but the actual car was a very small station wagon which was extremely cramped and with absolutely zero space for luggage. Extremely misleading.
No surprises
Pros: Got the exact car I booked
Cons: Nothing
Terrible customer service
Cons: My rental was for 150 euros, and then when I went to pick it up, they asked about insurance. I had three options: 1) full coverage for additional 150 euros, 2) partial coverage for 90 euros and 3) accept full responsibilities if there is an accident. I told the lady that 90 euros was quite excessive for two days of rental, and she nodded. She said "because you did not call from an European call centre." I found this to be silly, and filled out a complaint form with the local provincal bureau (Galicia).
When I went to drop off the car, the lady seemed to make a bit of a big deal about my gas being half full. I told the lady that the other lady said that because I had paid 70 euros in advance for gas, I don't have to worry about filling it up. They would refund whatever gas I had left in the tank. The lady in the counter told me to go to gas station to fill up, and I asked why. "because it is cheaper." It made no sense. She was frustrated and gave up, but I insisted on for complete explanation. She waved it off so I got really angry and demanded her to explain. She walked away to office, and a manager came out. He understood and explained that they refund the gas charges if you return the car with a full tank only. That made more sense. They should explain more in details rather than just saying simple things. I was not impressed with their customer service.

A total rip-off ! Will never book again with Kayak
Cons: Very unclear insurance policy.
I had to pay more than double the rental price to get just a basic insurance.
I couldn’t get a clear explanation at pick up of the insurance I got, and it was not possible to modify the contract online to understand the insurance policy or to add an insurance.
Pros: Reliable car, clean and comfortable
Cons: No one showed me any of the car features eg. Petrol.
They also didn't explain where to pick up or drop off the car. In Nimes I drove around for 45min looking for a place to park close to rental. And then when I arrived they told me to take it to the car park. Maybe it would have been much easier and nicer if they had said this before hand.
Got overcharged
Pros: The car was brand new, and the girl at the counter was soooo nice!
Cons: My flight was rescheduled and because dollar was represented by hertz counter they could not adjust the price to match the shorter time I had car. So I over paid for the car, disappointing!

For visitors who don't require much space, a small, compact car is ideal for driving through the streets of Toulouse. But if you're heading to the countryside, a sedan is best as it offers enough space and comfort for longer journeys. In case you're traveling with the whole family, a minivan is recommended.
The speed limit in urban areas across France is typically 50 kilometers per hour (31 miles per hour), but it may be lower in certain residential areas, so look for posted signs. Speed limit in two to three-lane roads is 90 km/h (55 mph), and 110 km/h (68 mph) on four-lane routes. Highways have a speed limit of 130 km/h (80 mph). The limits are lower in wet weather.
The average gas prices in Toulouse are approximately €5.30 (around $6.03) per gallon. You can find lower prices of around €4.92 ($5.60) per gallon, and the higher prices are usually €5.68 ($6.47) per gallon. Avoid filling up your tank on the autoroute (highway), and wait instead until you find the next town as hypermarkets offer cheaper gas prices.
Street parking in the city center is plentiful, but usually time-limited. Meters cost about €1.59 ($1.81) per hour, but it is free on Sundays and also during the first two weeks of August. There are lots of public parking lots downtown, such as the one in Place du Capitole, which aren't time-restricted but are more expensive with hourly rates of €2.20 ($2.50).
