Experience good in Albania
The experience was good. The vehicle was a new car—a top-of-the-line, automatic Opel Grandland that ran perfectly. It made the trip very pleasant, which is saying a lot for a country with such chaotic driving conditions. The seller was very approachable and attentive from the very first contact. I recommend getting comprehensive insurance.

Everything was simple and fast
Everything was simple and fast, the car was also neat, no unnecessary requirements were made. I only have one remark, there was no address or name on the contract, so I had to look for a parking space for a long time, everything is based on WhatsApp, which is not convenient for all customers, especially those who do not speak English. Everything else was great.

Erwinl is offering an old car with 135,000 km on the odometer. It doesn't have navigation, even though it's listed. There's an unpleasant smell inside, and the car indicates it has winter tires, even though it was rented in July.

Highly recommended
I had an absolutely fantastic experience with this car rental company! From the very beginning, the communication and the booking process were smooth and transparent. Upon arrival, the staff was extremely welcoming, professional, and efficient.
WizzAir airline lost our luggage, and the only help we received came from the owner of this car rental agency. He assisted us in recovering our luggage.
I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable, stress-free car rental. I will definitely book with them again!
