Driving here is not for the faint of heart, but if you are confident behind the wheel, you shouldn't have too many issues. Drivers in Romania are very aggressive, and while this attribute can create frightening moments, it also makes drivers very predictable. You will need to learn to match this aggression, and learn when and when not to be courteous to fellow drivers. Less optimal are questionable designs on some of the intersections, resulting in issues such as poorly visible traffic lights, unprotected left turn lanes, and general confusion of where you're actually supposed to drive. In short, it's actually quite easy for a competent driver to get used to Romanian roads and enjoy the predictability and above average competence of Romanian drivers. Just be aware that if you find that you are nervous or otherwise unconfident driver, you should instead consider the rather robust public transportation system.

Driving in Rumanía is aggressive but nobody horns you

Scam. The guy was very agressive and rude. Threatening. We had to cancel and he put us in a bad situation. Rented from hertz for a bit more money but so much better service. Stay away from this place!

I didn’t even get the car, the rental company was trying to get me to pay more money for a made up thing, basically asking for bribes to give the car to me. I kept saying no and they kept lowering the price of the bribe money, until i just walked out and never got the car. Very eastern block experience

Pros:

the staff I dealt with was ok, the policy and the manager are terrible

Cons:

I booked medium size, the manager called and offered a Dacia, which was out of the question, ad on Kayak says opel astra or similar. They offered a 20 euro full insurance over the phone, when I got there it was for 35 euro. You can pick up in town, their office is in a school, weird. Worst of all they charged me an extra 17 euro for me dropping off the car Sunday as "surcharge for dropping out of regular office hours".

Shame on Kayak that is dealing with fraud companies like Nextcar. I’m disputing the payment because the company doesn’t exist in Bucharest. We went all the way to the office and there’s no furniture, no people, just an empty office and people from next door telling us that the police has been many time here looking for someone from Nextcar. This is a scam!

They take you to some spot away from the airport, ask you to sign a bunch of documents. Claim they are taking a deposit then when you get a chance to actually read the documents you find out they never took a deposit but rather charged you more than 10 times ( $1700 for a $180 booking) more for non-refundable LIABILITY insurance. They even have the nerve to try to talk you into comprehensive, at that price ($170/day for $20k car), it should include a driver as well. I tried to cancel when I took a look at the contract, but they refused to refund my money and puffed his chest like he wanted to fight me.

They asked for my credit card to add it to the file until I sent the proof of insurance. I dropped the car off a day earlier and I’m still waiting for them to refund my $2,348.52. On top of this they processed it as a charge not just authorizing my credit card and had to pay $70.45 internațional fees. When I returned the car they said they will refund the money in 48 hours and this didn’t happened yet since 6/25. Very unprofessional. I have to open a fraudulent charge investigation now. Please advise and help me recover my money! Thank you!

The agent was not at the airport on the day of pickup. He told me the reason was that he had called me a day before and I had not answered, which is not true as I have the call logs and haven't received any call/sms/email. Then proceeded to tell me that most of people don't read T&C and that I had to pay 500 EUR insurance for 4 days if I wanted the car, on top of other fees. I am pretty sure something like this would stand out in the invoice, not hidden and nothing to do with T&C because this company would then have much bigger problems than scam sales. I raised a dispute for service not provided, scam offer change. Never again.
