There is a Europcar location at Hbf. It is not very highly rated (from google reviews). Apparently keys are at the DB desk for prearranged rentals and cars are at a nearby parking garage.
Sixt car rental is by bus from Hbf to Bluecherplatz.

Please do not trust oo ratings. Just the collection of disappointed dummy opinions if it comes to rental car stations.
And the name of the company is Europcar - just for a successful search.

Corrected the spelling. As for negative reviews, yes, people who have a problem post their negative experiences. In fact, I view a few negative reviews as a positive, validating that the reviews are genuine. But a majority of negative reviews mentioning similar problems serves as a warning to go in with eyes wide open.
