I rented from this place to tour around Tuscany last month. Denisa, who works at the Sixt office, is super friendly and helpful. The whole process was very professional. They made sure to mark every existing dent on the car in their system, so you don’t have to worry about it.

It's well recommend though the the staff was just persuading me to pay more extra money by enforcing some kind of insurance cover, was very insistent on me buying them which was very disappointing and i never did, which at the end i delivered there car safe back to them.
