Recommendations for car rental from Athens Airport

Hello, in the Fall I will travel to Greece, flying into Athens and
heading to the Pelopponese by car, for maybe 10 days.
There are several car rental places at the airport: Avis, Budget, Hertz,
National/Alamo and Sixt.
Can anyone recommend one more than the rest? I wouldn't be buying the
high-dollar collision damage waiver.
Thanks,
I can't speak for Athens, but what you might want to consider are
- does the company have an on-airport depot or do you have to wait for
the courtesy bus and even worse, find the depot again when you return
the car. Off-airport depots are a lot cheaper, but driving round at
night in the back streets of some industry park looking for the depot
while the time for your check-in ticks away is no fun.
- do the airline and car rental company have a big fly&drive deal, in
which case you may be standing in line for hours with all the other pax
that booked fly&drive.
