I rarely rent from Sixt since they came up expensive usually, but I had this great offer and it was not listed as Sixt but rather FLIZZR. The car war new and clean, No issues with picking up the car, very helpful customer service as I had experienced in former encounters with Sixt. Also the customer service representative hinted clearly on all and any pre-conditions (scratches, small dents), which I would have never been able to detect, since the rental place at the Cologne airport is rather a dark parking garage. I was even able to get an automatic for a small additional charge ($5 a day).

The car, an Opel (Vauxhaul or General Motors), was supposed to be an automatic, but felt like a hybrid manual and had a very strange way to shift. Didn't shift smoothly, but I was stagnantly shifting, at least I did not have to shift manually.

Great guys at station

Your staff needs to know if the car they are renting me has a CD player or not. Several times I've been told the car has on e, and it does not. Basically, creates a hassle and wasted time sink to switch out for another rental car that has one. Thx

The woman at the counter in the train station was kind and helpful.

It was not clear where at the Cologne train station we were to drop off the car. We were lucky to find the drop off point so quickly. It would have been helpful to have an address that we could have plugged into our Navi as well as a written description of the drop-off procedure. There is no AVIS personnel at the drop-off point

We change our reservation to frankfurt and it was so bad location for drop off the car. It was in central station in crowded area and parking was so far from their office. the park man couldn't speak English!!

I liked that Kayak could find me a car to hire when all car hire companies in Cologne said none was available, including Budget/Avis. Online hire was easy and the lady in the hire outlet was very nice. Unlimited milage is a must as travelling is not restricted

Drop off super easy

The insurance is way too high and cost more than the car rental itself! Also the car selection is always a mess because there is no standard rule for the car group or at least the front desk won’t really give options just go directly with his pickup option.

Very friendly staff (Kevin Zeitler) at pick-up - Coffee supplied for four and everything explained. Again at drop-off same staff very helpful..

The only disappointment was that quoted rental charge furnished on line did not include any damage cover to car (I would have been liable for up to €26,000). I accept that here is always a basic excess of €1.000/€2,000. Therefore I consider that your quoted rates are misleading.

I was told at the counter that I hired the car without insurance while my contract was saying that it had basic insurance. I was given the three options at the counter: 1- Pay over 700 euros for insurance at the counter 2- dont get the car and lose your car rental payment of nearly 300 USD 3- Take the car and sign a a document that if anything happen to the car i should pay full amount up to 40000 euros.

I ended up paying more than I had banked on. I purchased insurance at the counter, which wasn't an option in the online booking, and turned out to be several times the rental. But the car was clean modern and easy to use, and the staff where helpfully.
