Overall experience was good. No complicated procedures. To pick up the car, you only need a passport, credit card, and a driving license. Successfully picked up the car with a UK driver's license that I've had for just over a year, without an IDP. A 500 EUR credit card pre-authorization was returned the day after returning the car. The staff inspected the car carefully when returning it, so make sure to take a video around the car before renting to avoid any disputes. Got a Golf, which was a bit small but suitable for four people. The car only had a type-C port, so remember to bring an adapter.
Our group of 8 rented two cars in Venice. When booking, we selected the option to allow cross-border travel to Slovenia, Croatia, Montenegro, and Bosnia & Herzegovina. The customer service of the rental platform had informed us that this rental company permits cross-border travel and even sent us an email reminder about the policy. At the time of pickup, we clearly informed the staff about the countries we planned to visit and inquired about any cross-border fees. The staff did not charge any additional fees and handed over the cars to us. However, when we tried to enter Bosnia & Herzegovina from Montenegro, we were denied entry due to missing vehicle documentation from the rental company. We attempted entry at two different border checkpoints, both with the same result, which seriously disrupted our itinerary. Abandoning our Bosnia & Herzegovina trip would have cost us three nights of hotel bookings as well as incurred additional expenses for three more nights in Croatia. We had no choice but to spend an entire day driving back to Dubrovnik, Croatia, and rent two new cars for €400 to re-enter Bosnia & Herzegovina. Our originally planned circular road trip was interrupted, and we drove over 10 extra hours. After contacting the platform to request assistance, we received no response from the rental company. We are extremely disappointed with their service. If you're planning to travel to non-EU countries, avoid this rental company at all costs!

If we had abandoned our plans for Bosnia and Herzegovina, we would have lost the cost of three nights of hotels there and incurred additional costs for three more nights in Croatia. As a result, we were forced to spend an entire day driving back to Dubrovnik, Croatia, to rent two new cars for €400 and then re-enter Bosnia and Herzegovina. This disrupted our originally planned road trip, adding over 10 hours of extra driving. After contacting the platform to address this issue with the rental company, the platform actively helped with communication, but the rental company's efficiency was extremely poor. We were very disappointed with their service. If you plan to travel across borders to non-EU countries, I strongly recommend avoiding this rental company!
The counter staff in Venice were very busy when we went to pick up our vehicle but they worked quickly to look after everybody as fast as possible.
The only thing I thought could be improved would be signage directing people to the proper area to fill out the appropriate forms.

Everything at Easyrentcars worked flawlessly.
We had no issues during the entire rental process.
I did contact their customer service right after I booked to confirm we should expect no additional charges when picking up the vehicle. They promptly replied to me query and correctly told us what to expect.
I clarified prior to booking the car to make sure that I can drive the car into Bosnia and I even clarified again when I picked up the car. Everyone said there won't be any issues, but I was not able to enter Bosnia when I came to the boarder. It's in the law that a original green card is needed to enter Bosnia. Alamo just gave me a copy and said it will be good enough. I had to leave the car and get a taxi to Bosnia and rent another car. I do want a refund on the car.
Easy to locate the checkout counter and actual vehicle. The back seats were a bit dirty, the car was great and we didn’t have any issues.
