The rental offer was correct but I had to cancel and hire again because he didn't ask me about my residence and put a wrong one and it cost me a lot of money to change it. It did not give me the option to put additional drivers.

It's always as it is, they don't have small print, but you have to read the small print of the Renta Car companies (franchises, limited km, coverage, etc.). I have rented through them for several years and everything is ok.
