There were no designated Avis parking spots at the Barcelona rental location; the car was parked in a regular garage spot. The rental was upgraded without notice, and we only found out upon collecting the car. Because the parking lot was far from the rental office and difficult to find, we didn't bother to go back and exchange it. A silver Opel parked next to our rental shadowed us, and when we stopped at a service area for less than ten minutes, the entire car was emptied. The car lock and windows were undamaged. We reported everything to the police and found witnesses, but it's hard to say if there was any foul play, and we had to bear the loss ourselves. When returning the car, the Avis staff were also very rude. After the incident, contacting the rental customer service provided only official responses. Overall, very unsatisfied and will not use them again.

The procedures were very smooth. They changed the pickup location to one closer to my hotel directly at the pickup site. However, the in-store staff suggested buying full insurance, which was quite expensive. The cost of full insurance for 9 days was the same as 9 days of car rental. Everything else was great. The car was relatively new.

I originally planned to rent a BMW 3 Series, but since it is considered a large car, I needed to have two credit cards. I only had one, so I had to switch to a smaller car. The staff was very friendly, and I ended up renting a Mercedes diesel car. The power was excellent. Thumbs up!

The staff kept trying to upsell their own insurance and fuel packages multiple times after we refused. It was a bit annoying. The English level of the staff in Spain was not very good, making the overall car rental experience less pleasant than in the US and Australia.

Awful length of time waiting to pick up car
