Decent rental experience. Booked through the app, conditions are clearly stated and the price was okay-ish. I was given a brand new Peugeot 3008, that still required some setup for the infotainment system. Only complaint is that they have only two desk, and no fast lane for people who already went through the online check-in procedure, ultimately making you waste a lot of time despite going through the paperwork in advance, just to give you the keys.
