Good value and
Good value and everything was as expected, additional driver charge seemed expensive to me so didn't bother.

Had a nightmare
Had a nightmare with Avis when we arrived. Basically, the car we booked was not available, they tried to fob me off with a cheaper car (Suzuki Swift) which was not big enough. After the manager got involved they finally found a car miraculously in the yard that was acceptable. Bigger than we booked so assume they didn't want to upgrade. Unecessary stress at the start of our holiday.
