1. there are not much time to drive in Barcelona in 3days. public transportation looks better for traveler. 2. inferior surface of front bumper scar which was charged 180 euros for me There is an unfair aspect of charging for scratches on the lower part of the vehicle. When the vehicle was first delivered, a 360-degree video was taken, but the lower structure of the vehicle bumper was not taken. When I was charged for the lower scratch of the front bumper, I felt a lot of unfairness.Reviewed 22 Feb 2024

Budget also provides vans with sufficient capacity for nine people if you're traveling as a group.

If possible, Budget will provide you with a comparable vehicle type. Generally, you may have to select from what is available in the fleet regardless of the car model chosen when making the reservation.
