GRANADA CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Missed the return time and went back the next morning. They didn't charge extra and were very polite.

Car was fine. Insurance situation was very dodgy. I was given very different prices for insurance each time I rented.

Satisfied

The store wasn't open at the agreed time, waited outside for a long time.

Average

Large car rental company, reliable. However, the cross-border fee is different from what is shown on the platform.

Mostly satisfied

I had noticed that one of the plastic part for A/C air redirect was broken. I'd checked the outside thoroughly but didn't do the inside. And it looked fine until I touched it to change the direction. I swear that it wasn't me but what they said was that they hadn't heard about it before so I was responsible for it. Come on. If you guys had done the inspection with a minor effort, this wouldn't have happened in the first place. Shame that I'd had a great time until that moment and it completely ruined the entire experience with Alamo. Alamo would absolutely be my last choice for rentals.

The model was switched to a Renault wagon, which was smaller but priced the same, plus an additional 21% tax. There was only one automatic car available on-site, no choice given. Either you accept it, or you have no car. Unlike our previous self-driving trips in France and New Zealand where there were upgrade options. So what's the point of booking in advance? It seems the same as not booking at all! We didn't get the model we reserved. Under normal circumstances, a free upgrade should be given, but they just shrugged and said there were no cars available, take it or leave it. We had no choice but to accept it!

The company is understaffed. They don't answer calls, saying they are too busy.

This car had a lot of wear and tear with at least 8 ine items describing them. There was a a persistent whine at when cruising on the motorway, and a disturbing vibration when overtaking on the motorway. The car's warning light for low oil popped up on my drive in to return the car and was alarming.

Acceptable

Terrible experience! Do not rent a car here. There are many traps in car rentals in Spain, so be warned! The rental company targets Chinese customers and pushes various additional services on you. If you don't accept, they will start to trick you! First, they insisted that I use my own chip card, and using my wife's card would cost an additional 200 euros for an additional driver fee. After repeatedly complaining to the rental agency and sitting in their office to protest, they finally accepted my card, proving it was always possible to process. Moreover, when picking up the vehicle, it felt like they just handed me a car and left. The car had only half a tank of fuel and numerous scratches, and they only responded that they had records when I raised these issues. When returning the car, there were indeed problems—they charged me for a full tank of fuel costing over 40 euros. Due to the pre-existing scratches, they almost tried to scam me for damages, but after repeated explanations, they let it go as the scratch was short. Lastly, I left my car charger in the vehicle; when I went back to retrieve it, they claimed not to have seen it. My wife later remembered seeing an employee take it but didn't react at the time! Throughout the entire ordeal, the car rental platform provided almost no support. Customer service was slow and unhelpful! I hope future customers see this review and take precautions. Don't fall into their trap and cause yourself trouble!

The service at Granada and Madrid airports was good, and there weren't many people.

The front desk staff is good and answers all questions, but efficiency is too slow. Make sure to allocate enough time for pick-up and drop-off.

All good I wanted to add a driver for 5 days in the middle of my 3 week hire. They would not let me do this it had to be until the end of the hire.

Europcar provided us with a car that was due for an oil change. We rented the car from February 17th in Granada, Spain, and returned it on February 28th at Madrid Airport, totaling eleven days. On the sixth day, the 23rd, a red warning light appeared, indicating the need for an oil change. I contacted the rental platform to ask if it was necessary and what the consequences would be if we didn't change it. They suggested visiting a local branch of their company for assistance to avoid safety risks. In Porto, we found their rental point below the British company. I requested a car exchange, but they claimed they didn't have the same model. The staff took us to a repair shop and asked me to pay the full cost upfront, 76 Euros, with a promise of reimbursement at the Madrid drop-off point. It took three hours to change the oil, ruining our afternoon plans. At the Madrid Airport drop-off, they refused to reimburse the oil change cost, telling me to contact the rental platform. Europcar failed to check the car thoroughly before handing it over and was unhelpful in resolving the issue, showing no willingness to admit their mistake or apologize sincerely. How can we trust such a rental company?

The wait time was too long.

The car didn't have an environmental sticker, so we couldn't drive into Madrid, but they required drop-off in the city.

Almost everything was doing right, but it was really difficult to find a parking lot in Seville train station. The easyrentcars app described the office of the branch, not the parking lot.
