I didn't realize that Thrifty is a budget rental brand under Hertz. The Marseille train station rental area had signs for many rental companies, but none for Thrifty. After searching for a while, I found it under the Hertz name. The staff in charge of the rentals provided excellent service and gave us an amazing car—a 5-seater with a sunroof, GPS navigation, and a very spacious trunk. I seriously wondered if they gave us the wrong car.

The car rental company and parking lot are right across from the station, very easy to find. The staff kept pushing for additional insurance... because the order used third-party insurance, which had nothing to do with them. The car was relatively new and had an automatic stop-start feature, which I didn't notice at first, causing some inconvenience.

Great service! The car is also in excellent condition!

Everything else was great! I booked a Golf but they gave me a Renault Clio, which was nice! It felt great to drive! However, finding the return route in Rome was really tough. The garage is on the seventh floor of the parking lot with no signs at the entrance. I missed it and had to navigate a lot of one-way streets before finally finding my way back. So frustrating!

Staff at pick-up and return is very helpful. But beware not to pick up between 12.00-14.00. It's their lunch time no one open the door for us. Or maybe it's not a big city so no one operate during lunch time

Booking platform is good but recommend to show why we cannot book on Sunday. This is not first time I travel by rent a car but it's first time I found that they not open on Sunday. So thinking about who rent on Sunday!
