The Girona budget office insisted that we have no insurance even a basic one, at that time I could't reach my reservation details and checked, so they took nearlı 150euros for car insurance which is more than 2 days rental price. At that time we couldn't be sure about the conditions. So I had to pay twice the money, I won't reserve with kayak/budget again.

Pick up was extremely difficult. I waiting at the counter while the person helping me tried to figure out my rental. Finally his colleague helped after more than 30 minutes standing there.

The insurance pitch is tireless and frightening. Renting a car with automatic transmission in Spain is twice as expensive and it's necessary because corners are tight and Spain is mountainous with lots of curves. Drop off was on a Sunday and the office was closed. There was a key drop with a note to leave them. OK, but don't come back to me with a small scratch or dent or... I'd have preferred someone signing off that all was good.
Pick up location difficult to find due to construction in San Sebastian.

Awful. Placed a booking for a car and the price was 52$ . When I collected the car I was told to pay 69.99 for insurance. So in my mind this is 69.99 plus 52$ which is around 46€ . So 46 + 69.99 is 115.99 I got charged 142€. But of a difference in price. Not at all impressed. Just feel like I’ve been ripped off.

Terrible. No information about pickup or drop off and have since been charged double of what the hold was on my credit card.

Poor|Apr 2023
The worst car rental experience ever. Despite following the instructions (bringing a driving license and a Mastercard), we were not able to collect the car because the card didn’t work with their system. The staff were extremely rude and we were given no explanation and no car. Still trying to get a refund. Would avoid!
