Okay renting experience but staff at counter tried to push me into upgrading everything possible. I ended up with insurance I didn't need in exchange for a free upgrade to a nicer car model, so not the worst outcome.

 

Moreover, I just found out that other car rentals (e.g. avis) do not charge you for a second driver, so I will rent with them next time.
