The car pickup location is extremely hard to find, very hidden and far away. I have rented cars nearly ten times abroad, and this is the first time I encountered a rental company that requires extra attention to the car's interior cleanliness. If they find any trash, water stains, or sand on the seats, they will fine you 80 euros (and even suggest you pay ten euros to wash the car outside before returning it), which adds unnecessary inconvenience to travel. One female staff member had inconsistent car inspection standards, so make sure to take extra photos. The other male staff members were okay. The car was not rented with a full tank, making it difficult to control how much fuel to refill, which is very inconvenient. The rental company tries to scare you by saying local traffic accidents are common to sell insurance and pointed out that off-road scenarios are not covered by insurance. However, many beaches in Crete involve off-road driving; are we supposed to walk there to avoid dehydration!? I suggest avoiding this rental company.
We had already paid the rental fee and full insurance in advance. At pickup, one attendant asked us to pay a 730-euro deposit with a credit card or give him 30 euros in cash. We chose to pay the 730-euro deposit with a credit card. The attendant then said the card didn't go through. Another attendant came and demanded an additional 45 euros for windshield insurance before giving us the car. We offered 30 euros, but the original attendant denied asking for money. We were forced to buy the 45-euro windshield insurance. When we asked to cancel the reservation, they said no refunds. This way, we ended up paying more and the rental cost increased by 70%. Surprisingly, the same credit card went through immediately for the 45-euro charge, showing the issue with the deposit was fake.
I had to provide a credit card for pickup; my EU Master Debit Card was declined, and I had to pay an extra 30 euros to get the car.
