Since I became a Hertz Gold Member 10 years ago, this was the worst car rental experience of my life. I reserved an automatic car (only automatic, not 100% electric). After waiting for 45 minutes to collect my car because the Florence Airport Hertz only has 1 employee to do both the inside and outside work, I was handed my keys and was told " by the way, it's a hybrid electric". No one helped us to the car or showed us how to operate it including the fuel. Naturally we simply assumed it was like other hybrids that took both gas and electric. It was not until I tried to fill my tank of gas that it was understood that the car only took electricity. Italy is not a country ready for this type of vehicle, only a home that has an outlet for charging since it takes 5 hours for a "full tank". This was not explained or supported by Hertz -- it was simply one of the moments where I was left to fend for myself without proper information. With only a limited amount of electric kms left, you can imagine the panic of being stranded on the road for my wife and I. We were forced to find a location, figure out the electric charging situation in a place with very few charging stations actually opterating, not using AC in 40 degrees and not charging our mobile phones. It was a complete nightmare I do not wish on anyone. We found ourselves going to 1 place after another desperately trying to locate a working charging station. As we sweat from the heat and stress, we began to panic. This was combined with no working phone number for the Hertz FLR airport location ... how is it possible to not have any phone support whatsoever. We definitely felt doomed in this situation because we were given a car without knowing and a full explanation. The process of searching, driving very slow, and praying to find an outlet took a lot of time. We finally found a source, figured out the downloading app program, and began to fuel .... but it only gave us a few km before being told it would need hours to refill. We could not have waited hours in our best effort to return the car at the time we were suppose to, and not dehydrate from heat exhaustion. We filled to the best our ability, then begran to drive closer to the drop off, but we did not have enough kms of eletric to make it to the Hertz location. We were forced to do this process again for hours searching. We finally found a place, redid the app download process, and filled out electric to return the car. When we arrived, there was only 1 person working. This person was kind, but busy and could not check our situation or how the car was. I needed to explain the situation, but the employee was too busy to fully support me. She simply asked for the keys and said a manager would evaluate when he returned to work. I had no one to explain the situation to of the late return or limited electricity inside because of a lack of employees. I had to leave and handed the keys without a confirmation of charges. This was truly one of the worst experiences ever and we are still very shaken up about it. We want our money back in its entirety for this terrible experience -- if you need any reassurance if you should/should not refund me ... please put yourselves in my wife and my shoes and read this story again ... think about how stressed and bad you would feel... then please issue to refund quickly. Thank you for your time and support,
