The van and the service were very good. We could not have asked for a friendlier more knowledgeable local pick-up contact. Van was great and just what we wanted. Everything was just as expected. Thank you.

The camper was great and we didn't experience any problems, the trip was fantastic in that respect! This also applies to the indiecamper website, which is very clear and well/nicely designed. The big (and only) downside was the local team. The pick-up location is a remote warehouse that can only be reached by taxi. The location feels unsafe and the local team makes no effort to show hospitality. There is hardly any communication and no initiative is shown. This made the check-in feel unsafe and gave us great doubts about the reliability of the camper rental. In the end everything went well, but we had a bad feeling about it.

Fridge would not register the gas setting so we lost some food however we contacted the Support team and they guided us to fix it. And it worked! The bed slats were not stable for two people and had to go under and put the slats back in.

Prices are a bit high for me, but it worth it for such service Good for 3-4 persons, 5 will be not so comfortable. Double decker 2-place beds will be better (like in Ducato)

We were more than happy about the vehicle and how professionally everything was handled by the local pick up team at Malmö Indie Campers - especially Mohammed who was not only super competent about the car and friendly in all regards but also went out of his way to help us with the following things: 1) We paid everything concerning our trip in advance. However there was one major problem concerning the deposit: it was not possible via the online indie campers website to use our credit cards to hold that deposit. we used 3 (!) different credit cards. first it said its not possible because of the swedish currency, which is ridicolous since it is a credit card and we paid with it all over the world. Then the indie campers platform said there are not enough funds provided by the credit cards to cover the deposit (which was 200-500 Euros). All 3 cards and the connected bank accounts had more than enough money on it to cover the deposit! We never experienced any problems concerning deposits or payments with any of our three credit cards before and we've had them for years. Its nerve wrecking and not a good feeling in any way when you try to get those credit cards working. Mohammed did all in his power to help us and we tried and tried...for more than two hours!! Finally it worked....why?...we didnt know...it just did. (we also had support from the indie campers chat but they couldnt find the error either). PLEASE FIX your online platform and how the deposit is handled. There seems to be a major flaw in your computer system. 2) We did book a child seat in advance via the indie campers platform. It is not possible to select an approbiate size concerning the height and weight of the child. Nor is there a check of availability for the timeframe you rent the vehicle. there were no appropriate child seats at the pick up station. so we had to take one that didnt fit at all. this is not only a health risk (!) for our child in case of an accident but would also be a problem if we were stopped by the police (which we werent lucikily) cuz this would lead to a fine. a couple of minor things: kitchen equipment: it would have been nice to have a cullender, a peeler and a kitchen towel. thats all;) Thanks for the great trip and kind regards, Anselm Tröster

On small comment, that it is not next to the airport. We were very happy with the service of Daniel.

Clearer description of the equipement and services maybe: A shower and a tent would have been perfect. As we had previous experiences with California, we thought it was automatic included. But we did not see it in the description. The gas bottle was not full even we had paid for it. But with no discussion we got a refund:-)Waste reservoir could have been empty, battery fully charged and petrol full. We managed this so that it was not really a problem. Maybe a closer location or easier-to-reach location from the airport Nice experiment. Quick and friendly check-in and check out. When you have a question/an issue the team is assertive, pro-active and solution-minded. I will certainly go for indie-campers for my next swedish journey

Our overall experience with Indie Campers was fine/okay due to the offerings. We made the most of what we were given and had a great time on our trip. The humans we interacted with during pickup/drop off were great. The vehicle was as expected. Everything worked but it was definitely well used, for example, the shades were ripped and one drawer was wonky. The fridge didn't open and close well. We would probably rent from Indie Campers again, but plan to bring certain items from home and set our expectations appropriately. But here's the info that future renters need to know: the bedding kits are TERRIBLE. Bring your own bedding if you can. The "fitted" sheet is actually a flat sheet that barely covers the mattress (it does not fold under it at all) so you end up sleeping on the gross mattress at some point during the night. It must have been a twin size flat sheet for a full size mattress. The pillows are lumpy and flat and the pillowcases do not entirely cover them so the pillows hang out the end. Gross. The duvet is bigger than the duvet cover (again, something like a full size duvet trying to squeeze into a twin size duvet cover. The duvet is not meant for two people so you will have gaps and drafts and it can be cold! Next, the kitchen kit is lacking. There is no can opener. The pot selection is poor. For a camper serving up to 5 people (we had 2 adults, 2 teens) the only pot that could service us was the stockpot. The small lid fit neither the tiny saucepan nor the small skillet. The french press is tiny - services ONE person. The "sharp knives were 2 crappy steak knives. We stopped at IKEA on our way out and purchased a large skillet, a fabric dish drying pad (a drying rack would have been helpful, but no room to store it), oven mitts (the stockpot handles get really hot) and a garbage can. Fortunately, I brought from home a collapsible kettle, cloth dish towels, my own chef knife/paring knife/bread knife, collapsible food containers, garbage bags, suction cup hooks (to hang towels to dry from fridge, bathroom mirror, and shower). We tried to purchase a small folding step stool from IKEA but they didn't have any. The tallest of us was 5'7" and we could barely reach the fronts of the kitchen cabinets. They go way back too. It was extremely difficult to use them. Everything was so high - even strapping up the drop down bed was difficult. I wish that Indie Campers didn't make us purchase all these separate kits for use of the camper. Please just make it a part of the overall price. It's frustrating to have to pay extra and then it's of poor quality. We also would have really appreciated some levelers for the camper. Most campsites are not quite level and can make it difficult to cook and sleep. Again, we'd probably rent from Indie Campers again, but would set our expectations and bring our own bedding!
