As luck would have it, my last short city break also took me to Budapest. The occasion was my son's graduation. We were there together. That was about eight years ago now. These days, I avoid big cities, and generally short trips as well. Partly, this has to do with the feeling you describe: the fear of wasting time, missing out on something, or ending up not seeing something at all. I've come to appreciate leisure and idleness. Perhaps it's also an age thing. :)
I get why you're wary of short trips. This time I'm tying together some personal events with a visit to the city. Without those extra reasons, I would have for sure allowed myself more time—and gone in a more pleasant season. 😊
