It was a bit of a hassle at first since the train was delayed and the St Pancras location was going to be closed already.
Despite that, the customer service was very helpful to help me rebook for the same day so I could still get to my hotel in Manchester.
After the rebooking I’ve had one of the best experiences I’ve ever had when picking up a vehicle. The guy was friendly and very helpful. We had a couple of laughs and it was a very enjoyable experience overall.
He helped us very well to finalize the rental and we were able to at last get on our way to Manchester.
The car itself was also very nice. We had to fill up the adblue but that mentioned before we chose which car to drive. So it was our decision that we had to fill it up, but it was no trouble and the refunded the cost after giving the receipt.
I’ll definitely rent again at Sixt
