We rented an SUV from this location and dropped it off at Lisbon Airport. It was a bit difficult for the Bolt driver to find the location but after a bit of searching we made it there. The rental agent was friendly and efficient and encouraged me to take photos of any minor scuffs and scratches that they did not consider damage, just in case. The car was in great condition and I appreciate that they did not try to upsell us (that happened to us at Sixt Las Vegas and was a big waste of time). Drop off was efficient and easy as well. I was nervous about renting from Sixt after reading the reviews here but came back to leave a good review since we had such a positive experience. Recommended!

Use Sixt everywhere I go because they have solid cars normally quite new. It was no exception this time. Got a car with about 7k km that was a pleasure to drive. Checkout was effortless and the lady on duty was very patient to show us the different cars available.

I rented a car for a week of holidays around Porto with Sixt. First it is really more advantageous to go through this agency rather than the one within the airport and it is a 5min walk from the airport, very easy to do you should not be afraid. Then I refused the insurances offered and did not feel at any moment the people here would try to charge me for something more that I didn’t need. The check out process was simple. I would recommend this agency that seems to be pretty fair.
