I highly recommend this place

I highly recommend this place!
The whole house was incredibly clean and well maintained. We honestly felt a little bit like we were spending the best summer holidays at our grandparents’ countryside home just with a swimming pool and all the comforts.

A huge plus was the air conditioning in every bedroom, as well as the swimming pool and dishwasher. With a family, these little things make such a big difference and make your stay so much more comfortable.

The owners were absolutely lovely, very friendly and always easy to contact. The location is beautiful and peaceful.

If you’re looking for a wonderful place for a family holiday, I can honestly highly recommend it!

The service was excellent

The service was excellent when we recently rented a car from Locauto in Milano. Everything was done really smoothly, there was no waiting and we got a great car for our trip.

Hello,

Hello,

return a vehicle location was hard to find due to lack of correct signs. The rest was just fine.

Dear Fuad,thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us!

We are glad to hear that everything else went smoothly, but we are truly sorry for the difficulty you experienced in finding the return location. While the directional signage throughout the airport area is managed directly by the airport authority, we take your comment very seriously. We will use your feedback to improve the return instructions and guidance provided by our desk staff so our customers can navigate back effortlessly.

We look forward to welcoming you back again soon for a seamless, 5-star experience!

Locauto made everything very easy

Locauto made everything very easy, both in terms of providing the vehicle we needed and arranging the most convenient drop-off location for us. The paperwork was quick, and the car was brand new. The drop off was also quick and very professional. Everything went perfectly.

Very friendly and helpful staff

Very friendly and helpful staff. The process of renting and returning the car went very smoothly and without any complications. The car, a Fiat 600 hybrid, was rented at the Palermo airport after 10 p.m. without prior reservation, which was a pleasant surprise. Returning the car at Catania airport also went smoothly and without any complications. We received an option with full insurance and without having to refuel the car when returning it.

Excellent and hassle-free car rental

We had an excellent experience with Locauto at Bari Airport. The staff were friendly and professional, and both the pick-up and return process were quick and straightforward. The car was clean, well maintained and almost new. Everything was exactly as booked, the rental terms were clear, and there were no unexpected charges. We had no problems at all and would definitely rent from Locauto again.

Worse than the last time

This time, I got an old, high-mileage, underpowered car. During drop-off, I almost missed my flight due to the mess — the staff couldn't find my reservation, and the car had been assigned to another person (some Marco).

Dear Bartosz,thank you for your review.
We are truly sorry for the misunderstanding and the delay you experienced during your vehicle drop-off. We deeply regret any distress this situation caused regarding your flight, as this is certainly not the level of organization we strive to deliver.

We sincerely appreciate your patience while our team worked to resolve the issue. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future to provide you with the seamless, high-quality service you deserve.

I have been a Locauto customer for many…

I have been a Locauto customer for many years, unfortunately, for the first time i’m very disappointed. I ordered a compact class car (Peugeot 308 or similar) and received a class B car (Jeep Avanger) which was too small for 5 adults. Moreover, although the car was new, it was handed over to me with no air in one of the tires, so right after leaving the airport on the highway from Bologna to Faenza I had to pump the tire, and throughout the entire stay i had to pump tire every day.

Dear Tomasz, thank you for sharing your experience at Bologna Airport. We are sorry to hear that the complimentary upgrade did not meet your expectations and your feedback will be addresed to improve our service.
Because the vehicle class you originally reserved was unfortunately unavailable at the time of your arrival, our team provided a Jeep Avenger at no additional cost. Please note that the Jeep Avenger belongs to our higher Class M category, and this substitution was offered as a free upgrade to ensure you could get on the road without further delay.
We appreciate your business and we hope to welcome you back again.
