Everything went well and the pick-up/return process was quick, easy and honest

Take a ticket and join a long queue, then charge extras left right and centre. A rip off.

The sign at Bordeaux Airport for ACE car rentals was a tiny A4 piece of paper with no other directions. Wait time at the desk was 10minutes yet took over 3hrs to get all the cars for my party! Was given 3 different cars, the children seats I had pre booked weren't available and as a result was pulled over by the police which was a horrific experience for my 18month old daughter. We were asked for a 1,400 Euro deposit each for each car which was news to us. Having finally paid everything and gotten our cars after multiple changes and a police stop (they wanted to make us get taxis for the kids) we were on our way. 2 out 3 cars we didn't fill up on return and were fined 50 euros per car atop the petrol cost. 1 car was filled up but apparently 4 euros short of a full tank and an additional 50 euro charge was placed on our card a week later (having agreed at the drop off the tank was full). Bottom line is this was the worst experience of my life and thing ACE and all their staff should be ashamed of themselves.

Le retrait de la voiture a été horriblement long (plus d’une heure à faire la queue et au guichet). Le tarif paye sur internet était le plus compétitif mais une fois l’option super assurance et pas besoin d’etat Des lieux de retrait et de retour le tarif est nettement moins compétitif du fait de l’attente.

Not use again simply because on picking car up, we were told that we were not covered for anything on car unless we paid €188 for their insurance. I had paid extra when booking the car for initially for coverage. They told me at counter it doesn’t count and we would be charged for anything wrong on return of car. We opted not to take it but puts an amount of anxiety on you during by whole holiday.

I didn't know that ACE was part of the Goldcar group, which I had experienced before and didn't want to experience again the booking site Easyrentcars did not show that I thought that ACE was a totally different car rental company, but then it works the same as Goldcar, a low cost company which I personnally will not recommend or use again for my needs
