Round trip from Madrid to Barcelona

No waiting in line

The procedures were simple and straightforward, no unnecessary talk, just got the paperwork and drove off.

Arranged a change in return location through the hotel front desk by calling the rental company. Overall, satisfied. The rented car was brand new with only 9km on the odometer.

I booked an automatic Touran but when I got to the airport, they said they didn't have any! They gave me an automatic Golf instead, but the price remained the same.

When we arrived at the airport to pick up the car, they required us to present two international credit cards for the driver as a guarantee. Avis explained that it was because we rented a high-end car, an Audi A4. I felt it was unnecessary. After some negotiation, they gave us a smaller Infiniti mini wagon. Although Avis said it was a downgrade, the car we got was brand new. Amazing!
