Very good
Although located in a remote office building, the staff's attitude was good, and both pickup and drop-off went smoothly. The explanations regarding related matters were clear, and there were no attempts to upsell insurance or other extra charges. The onsite provided a Renault CLIO station wagon. At the time of pickup, the car's onboard computer indicated that its mileage had exceeded 190,000 kilometers. The interior was not only outdated but also dirty, with a burn hole from a cigarette on the driver's seat. The top of the gear shift knob was loose and detached, the dashboard coating was peeling, and worse, the tires were severely worn and cracked, which might pose a safety risk. During driving, the air conditioning barely worked, forcing me to open the windows even on highways. Otherwise, the car felt like a sauna inside.

We arrived sound and safe after a long drive :)
Like: The rapidity of the service. And to have come back sound and safe.
Also to gave an insurance from AXA that covers everything. And a very good price.
Dislike: I wanted a Renault clio and got a similar Peugeot 207, an old car which was evaluated lower with another cie. Thankfully, we had a good drive!
It was difficult to find the place. With the sign bravacar, you should have easyrentcars signs
It was unfortunately that we could get from Bravacar the eToll with highways .
Thank you
