There was no mention of this during the booking. It wasn't until I saw the charge on my credit card statement that I found out about an extra fee of around 100 yuan. After 10 days of inquiry, the car rental company claimed it was a special location pickup fee. They couldn't explain what constitutes a special location. I picked up the car at the airport, which I guess is pretty special! It feels unfair, even though the amount isn’t much, it's still frustrating. Seems like I need to understand the rules better next time.

Straightforward and simple. I mentioned to the lady at the counter that we were five adults and one child, and asked her to make sure it was a seven-seater car. She asked about our luggage, and I said two large bags, one small bag, and a stroller. She hesitated for a moment and then said she'd upgrade us to a Land Cruiser for free.

Very easy to find, the stores all have Hertz's yellow signs. The previous blue ones seem to be out of business.

The car key battery was low, and after visiting a tourist spot, the car wouldn't start. I had to call for assistance. Fortunately, it started again during the call, but I was afraid to turn it off halfway through. The next day, I bought a button battery for $15 and fixed it myself.
