The airport where we picked up the car was tiny so it’s not a surprise we had to wait to be helped. The paperwork took a long time. I had reserved a car for about $70 for the day but was told I’d be charged about $160 if I didn’t bring it back with a full tank. There were no employees around when I returned it at 5:30pm so I don’t know what I was charged. As the rental was in Spain, it’s not easy for me to call and find out. Returning the car was very confusing and not well marked. Another group said the parking was full and suggested I leave the car at the side of the airport roundabout, which fortunately I did not do. The car itself was clean and had a full tank, just the rental process was very confusing. I’m decently fluent in Spanish so that wasn’t the issue.
Fast , easy going , and very professional . Got a very good deal .

Even with reservation, process to pick up takes a long time. So even though not many people in line, took 30 minutes to get to counter. Drop off though was very easy.

Had to cancel. I needed to change my reservation and no one answered the phone for 3 days. There was no way to change the reservation on-line. So I cancelled and went with a different company

There are few signs to indicate where the car rental desks are located in the bus station but the overall experience was smooth and problem-free.
The office was closed even though i had a confirmation they will wait for me. it was a storm day and i had to walk with all my luggage for 30 blocks and finally took a taxi to Bilbao for 200 EUR, nobody even replied to me neither on the phone or email.

The car was fine but we had to turn it in over a week earlier and we were assured at the drop off that we would be refunded. It has been over 2 weeks and we sent them an e-mail and have not received a reply or our refund

The person who helped us during pickup was quite rude and aggressive in offering insurance. She had a visible attitude and was not courteous when managing the rental.

Smooth at check-in, knowledgeable representative, got a very nice ride. The price was hefty since the dropoff was at a different location. Understandable, I was fine with that. Dropoff: bitter. Sat 2:30pm and the Santander (Cantabria, Spain) airport rental return lot was unattended, which was a total surprise for me. Walked inside the airport to the rental office and it was closed... Dropped-in the car key with a note, hoping they'll send me a final bill without any surprise...
