Avoid Brussels at all costs

Hi all. Just back from Europe, and my Avis Brussels rental is turning out to be a real mistake. Long story short, they are claiming I damaged the car, even though I did not. In addition, they charged my credit card in USD instead of the Euro that I asked for (and that my rental receipt reflects). That little bit of shadiness cost me an extra $100!!!

In retrospect, I should have heeded the warnings that I saw about this station on Tripadvisor, as all of these things have previously been noted by other renters. Instead, I stuck with Avis out of idiotic loyalty. I'm warning all of you so that you don't do the same!

Sadly, this is really souring me on Avis. I've rented internationally from them numerous times without incident, but everyone I dealt with at that Brussels location was really shifty. My blood pressure is rising again just thinking about dealing with them!
