" Easy, efficient, good deals. "
" Everything was handled professionally but the office was closed for drop-off even though the time of drop-off was 7:15 am on a weekday when I expected the office to be open. The drawback is an extra 58 euro fee. A bit of a rip-off. "

" Nice counter staff in both locations. "
" The rental car return was very confusing because there was no direction as to where to go. Multiple rent car people had to do as we did and back up on a one way street and then make an illegal u-turn to pull into the parking lot. A simple sign in multiple languages would have helped immensely. "

" Great customer service and great rates!! A question...do I get Enterprise credit? "
" Tricky getting in and out of airport rental spot.. Staff were not clear. "
" Rental Experience with BUCHBINDER in Vienna, Austria for me was more than satisfactory. Rental company representative Mrs. Spanikova at the Vienna International Airport Desk in Terminal was not only very kind and professional but also very helpful. She did explain very clearly all additional fees on top of the Base rate. She gave us a good recommendation about Child Safety Seat for our 5 years old grandson and by her selected seat was working just write for his height and weight. She explained in details where and how to return car and provided a very helpful map of the rental car return parking lot location. All the additional charges on top of the Base Rate were in accordance with original car rental agreement and voucher. "
" AutoEurope is always my first choice when seeking to rent a vehicle in Europe. "
" This was the very first time in over 40 years of renting cars in over 42 different countries, that I have been accused of not filling the tank and being told that I lied. I filled the car up only 4km from the airport. I was charged 15 euros for refueling and 15 euros for 9 liters of diesel. The car would travel over 100km on that amount of fuel. I resent the accusation that I tried to cheat Enterprise out of 15 euros of diesel after having spent almost 1,000 euros over two different rental periods in less than 28 days. Our month-long, European vacation cost over 10,000 euros yet they believe that I tried to save 15 euros by lying about filling up the car! I am appalled at the accusations and the charges placed upon my credit card. "
" The person at the desk, Thomas, was awesome. Extremely helpful. We did not have the same experience when we called to report a chiming alarm that kept going off; it said ab reset. We were told that we would have roadside service for problems. The lady who answered the phone first told us it was probably a radio issue, based on her Google research, and we could bring the vehicle in to check. Not what we wanted to do with our limited sightseeing time. And our quick research suggested it was an antilock brake alarm issue, which we did not want to experience in an emergency while driving the autobahn for the first time. Not quite the helpful experience we expected. "
" Good experience overall. I believe insurance agreements should be better articulated, particularly in lieu of the regularity renters use credit card insurance. The relationship between the credit card company through the broker and then on through to the car rental company was murky in its description. "
" Good service. Accurate rental. Easy to converse with in English. "
" Good car good price. "
" Very good car. Definitely unclear between Auto Europe and Buchbinder what the rules and issues are relating to the collision damage waiver aand using credit card to cover same Should be better organized . "
" Booking experience was simple and without surprises regarding prices. Only thing that is upsetting is having to fill all the data again in paper locally, after having done it in the internet ! "
" Good experience overall. Positive: 1- Pick up is a little more time consuming but drop off is very fast and the personal are helpful. 2- I delivered the car dirt on the outside but no problems were raised. 3- Pick up and deliver are easy to find in the airport To improve: 1- It's strange signing the paper agreeing that the vehicle is ok without seeing the vehicle. 2- We should have a gas pump in the airport and only them people should be asked to fill the tank, because as soon as I made the first 15Km, already the "full tank" drop 1 tick... 3- Upsetting is having the credit card pre-charged with extra 1.000 (to much), when I use the internet with a virtual credit card exactly because I don't like to give the physical card to anyone "
" Was helped out of a very mixed up booking, but agent at auto europe worked it out. Took about 2hrs. But he got it done, the six of us where relived.must mention the the euro-car agent was great called auto europe in the states to work it out. "
" Very,helpful and kind "
" Agent was a little inexperienced "
" Everything was in place. "
" They did a great job. "
" Picking up the car in Vienna took a long time. Nearly one hour to pick up. Returning the car in Salzburg was quick and effortless. We were having trouble buying a bus ticket to the train station and the agent came out of his office to help us (it was broken) "
" Long wait in Vienna to pick up the car "
" The selection and booking of the car was very smooth. And a 4 day rental (with fuel) was cheaper than having a cab pick me up and return me to the airport. The only inconsistency was the mention of the 'highway' decal for Austria which the customer still has to pay, but on pick-up that was included. The usual question about adding a CDW insurance was put, but my declining it did not raise any eyebrows. Great job! "
" Paperwork, car reception and return were very smooth. Friendly staff, good (if sluggish, but that is my fault) car. My data were already in their system, which sped up the process. Thanks! "
" Great service and team "
" worked out great, will use you again "
" It was made very clear what I was (and was not) paying for. "
" In the end I was satisfied, but they did not make it clear what, if any additional costs, there would be. "
" Rental clerk in Vienna was a bit rude with her comments. "
" The process was easy, simple, and the rate was competitive. The only disadvantage I had is in not being able to specify rental companies to avoid, such as Enterprise - see comments below. "
" I rented a family car and as it turns out it was a diesel car. I was not told about it, and when refueling at night I could not see the label. Moreover, as it turns out, in Europe they don't have a different size nozzles for fueling, and I ended up putting regular gasoline in the car causing an expensive damage no cover by the insurance. In addition, once I got stuck in the road, the process of getting the car hauled away and getting a replacement car was lengthy, not well communicated, and as it turns out also quite expensive. I am very disappointed with my experience with Enterprise, and I don't plan on renting more cars from them in the future. "
" Excellent company .. We'll organized and highly trained staff .. "
" Easy & quick .. "
" I was very satisfied despite of all obstacles I had with flight being delayed for 6hours. Enterprise was one of the couple offices opened on Christmas day evening. So I had no problem to pick up my reserved car from airport even 6hrs later after my reservation expired . "
" I have to be cautious about the total costs. When you add the local charges, things don't looks so economical. "
" The desk attendants were very helpful. "
" I am a loyal AutoEurope client and will continue to be as I do think you offer excellent service and good value. My only comment and reason why I didn't mark totally Satisfied with this reservation is that I never know what my final charge will be at time of booking as there always seem to be extra airport taxes or misc taxes that are not clearly outlined at time of booking and are added on when picking up the car. In this particular case, I thought I had indicated I was traveling to Hungary and when I confirmed this wih the agent at time of picking up the car they said that was another 40 euro charge to drive out of Austria. I understand this, but just wish these charges were disclosed to us at time of booking with AutoEurope. "
" I found the Buchbinder personal a bit cold but that is Austria and this is typically my experience when booking with them. They offer great value and I'm not renting the car for friendly personel but hence the reason for neutral rating - with the car I was satisfiec. "
" Easy and fast "
" Just because the price, the customer service is disappointing. "
" THe agent in Vienna was very helpful. The car was clean/ran well. "
" The agent was good. "
" all necessary documentation available, made pick up and drop off a breeze "
" friendly and efficient front office staff, excellent location for pick up and drop off "
" Used the car to travel from city to city only "
" A good and thrustworthy company "
" Nice car good service need to smile more! "
" very nice company, love the included insurance options for the right price. "
" very friendly "
" The booking at Auto Europe is quite convenient, selection of cars is good "
" Perfect location, good service, convenient procedure of Pick up and Drop off "
" The car rental counter location in the airport needs better markings. We had trouble locating it. Once we got there everything was perfect. "
" I liked your service. Every time I rent a car, I don't know, what kind of insurance is really necessary. As you know, an extra- insurance increases the rental price by an impor- tant amount. Could this be better explained? "
" the service was good and fast; the car was new and very good. "
" Price was the initial attraction. Subsequent phone contacts were pleasant and productive. My questions were answered and personnel were responsive to my needs. "
" I have been a WIZARD card holder for decades and generally seek out AVIS anyway. My experience locally in Vienna was positive. "
" Quick, easy and good prices "
" Good cars, easy check in when returning the car. Check out, when picking up vehicle could be made faster, if anything should be improved. "
" Still the best. "
" They now recognize me as a repeat customer. "
" The company uses all paper copies. If you don't have a paper receipt from AutoEurope they can't process the reservation. The car I requested was not available. The car I got was larger and was in a bad shape. Given that it is winter in Europe and the use of windshield washers is constant, the ones in the car did not work under freezing temps. Also, the company did not provide a brush for snow. Finally, the onboard computer was showing a fault with the car. I rent from Sixt and I never had issues with their service or cars. I will stay away from this company for now. "
" As usual, very easy to make reservations over the internet. "
" They ran out of cars because of a car wreck, but found us a good replacement car for our rental. It seems that they should have more cars available. A walk-in customer right after us was turned down for lack of a car. "
" Great service, "
" Good service at the counter, Car was very good. no complaints at all. "
" Our experience with Auto Europe was very positive. The car was ready when we went to pick it up, there were not surprises or hidden charges. The only negative was that the dash board connector for the gps was not working. "
" Car was handed over in a damaged and not representative condition. Coming to Vienna from Nairobi with little time I felt like being taken hostage. My family and I looked like car rowdies- reflecting badly on our image! "
" very pleasant, I had never rented from Buchbinder before, but I was given a brand-new car, slightly larger than I had reserved but better suited for my needs, at a very reasonable price. "
" The best agency for car rental in Europe. "
" Every ting went according to our original plan. We got the car requested at booking, the car was new, with a low mileage. There were no hidden fees. "
" appreciate ease of use and great rates ! "
" Very courteous good experience "
" Thanks "
