Exceptional rental experience. Website easy to use, employee contacted me prior to pick-up to offer free upgrade to larger vehicle (I needed SUV for moving purposes). Marius (Amstel Bus Park location) handed me the keys in less than 5 minutes and another employee personally walked me to the vehicle & oriented me to all features. Returning car after-hours was extremely easy and received an electronic acknowledgement that vehicle/keys had been returned after I placed keys in rental return after-hours box. Received a follow-up call from Marius to ensure that all had gone well. I have NEVER had a rental car company contact me after a rental. Wow...what a pleasant surprise. Fantastic business model!! Very impressed and will rent from Sixt in future!

Always enjoyed good service here by friendly people. I prefer this one over the desk at Central Station which is more aimed at quick service to tourists.
We had a challenge here lately with am upgrade we got, but after a short call everything was arranged to my satisfaction: thanks!
