Centauro rent a car

It is not at the airport. It takes you more than 45min to get there with the shuttle (+walking). They try to charge you fees in combination (fuel fee) with a booking via
! Deductible 3400 $!!!

I rented a car online from Centaurorentacar in Malaga Spain for May 23, 2014. The pick up at the airport was disorganised and it took me 30 minutes to get to their rental centre which is quite aways away from the airport.
Only 2 customer service agents checking people in. The woman who helped me was not very nice. I had a copy of my emailed confirmation with me. Everything was fine until I was told I was being charged 99 Euros for fuel. WHAT??? There was nothing in anything that was sent me or on the website about this. I was under the impression that if I returned the car full I would not be charged. So why the 99 Euros upfront? They have lots of undisclosed fees making your great price rental, not so great.
She insisted that I was sent a copy of the general conditions. I was not. The only place they are is in a separate pdf file on the website. Not even in a place easy to find. I asked for a printed copy of them, she refused. The contract conditions on the back of the receipt are in such fine print that you can’t even read them. So what else didn’t they tell me? I asked for it in writing that I would be refunded the 99 Euros if I returned it full and she refused. Finally she mad a notation on my receipt of something, but it wasn’t clear at all. I then noted on their copy about the refund. We’ll see what they do. What a bunch of crooks!
It is not very convenient to use an agency so far from the airport and with such slow bus service. Allow LOTS of time if you book with them, and be prepared for extra charges and rude customer service people.
The car was clean, ran well and was comfortable, but not the great deal I thought it would be. I couldn’t figure out some things and there was no manual in the glovebox. No one was willing to expelling any of the car features which should be done when you are renting to foreigners. Cars are very different in Spain than in the US.
I would not recommend Centaurorentacar.

Centauro rent a car is a Holiday Autos partner in Spain. Their prices were very competitive so I booked a Focus type car for one week from Malaga Airport. Their office is a couple of miles from the airport and is serviced by a regular shuttle bus. In view of the price paid I expected a fairly ordinary vehicle. On arrival I was upgraded to a virtually new Peugeot 308 HDI Station wagon, which was powerful but economical, roomy and well equipped. The Centauro staff were helpful and multi-​lingual. Unfortunately, I misunderstood their conditions which were to pay in advance for a full tank of diesel and return it empty. I returned it with a full tank. An email to their customer services produced a refund to my credit card for the fuel costs in 2 days. So I would certainly not hesitate to use Centauro again. And next time I will try to listen more carefully!
