Pros:
No staff at the counter when we arrived, a card said to use the kiosk and no kiosk to be seen. When we brought the car back there was no staff around and this was at 4:30 PM.Cons:
Get anybody to be at your place of business or close down. And by the way we noticed that there was a big plug in the right rear tire. That is very dangerous in my opinion, and no spare along with no staff.2,0 Poor
Maks, Apr 2021
Pros:
Staff was friendly getting the rental and something happened to their computer. Claimed my reservation was flagged and they wouldn’t be able to rent to me for the night.Cons:
I rent from sixt regularly. There was no code or reason for the reservation being flagged. The agent couldn’t explain why.6,0 Okay

Pros:
No issues with staff friendlinessCons:
They didn’t do the walk around the vehicle when I took it out and since I was in a hurry with lots of luggage, I forgot to do it. They just handed me the keys at the desk and pointed where the car is. But they walked around when I brought it back and claimed that a pebble off the street has chipped the paint off the hood.2,0 Poor
Blake, Dec 2020
Pros:
I was told online when I booked my reservation that my rental was $186 and when I arrived they tried to charge me over $360. I walked away.Ace Rent-a-Car
