| - We had a terrific experience using Sixt Rent A Car. Jamie and I needed to rent a car for our trip out to Arizona for our wedding, and had wanted to "upgrade" to something nicer than just a budget compact sedan. Jamie did the research, found Sixt, and after seeing their prices, we were absolutely flabbergasted!
Check-in at the Sixt desk was a small wait; they only had one representative on staff at the time. Although he wasn't the epitome of professionalism, he was polite and helpful. Our original reservation would have landed us in a Volvo, but we had wanted something a tad bit nicer. He suggested an upgrade that they had available in-house.
We rented a C-class gorgeous black Mercedes Benz for a little more than what we would have paid for a budget compact sedan elsewhere. The interior was thoroughly cleaned, and featured the latest in technology and style. The exterior, however, had been rained on and was not washed since, a bit of a disappointment. When we received the keys, we did have to ask where the car was located [I guess they assume you understand how the store the cars] and also ask how to start the car [yes, seriously. It had a key fob, but a push-button start. Hint: press down the brake as you press start.]. In that regard, service reps could really use a refresher: I don't know where I'm going and I don't know what I'm doing.
The winner here, in the end, was us. We got an amazing deal ($33/day for a full week's rental, not including extra driver charge) on a smokin' hot car that was way nicer than anything we'd ever driven. All of the payment went through fine, no smoke and mirrors on charges (though you will have to pay to have an extra driver listed, worth it for us). Check out Sixt next time you need a rental car!
