Barcelona to The Alps (How/Where/What)?

Hello everyone!

I am traveling to see my friends in Barcelona next month(6th-14th). We are planning to rent a car and drive to the closest Alps location. Not really familiar with the area, so I have no Idea what would be a good(closest to Spain) snowboarding spot. To make it easy, I have a few questions.

1)Where is a good place to snowboard in the western Alps?
2)What is a good place to stay there? or any recommended hotels/motels/hostels in the area.
3)Is there a particular scenic route that we can take there from Barcelona?
4)What car rental place would you recommend to use?
5)Where else to go after a few days on The Alps, not historical sites but more fun and club/good night life type of location that is within a day of driving.

We are poor college students, that are trying to go big with little money(impossible?maybe), so any advise from you on how to do that is really appreciated!!!

Thanks

Renat.
