About one of the worst experiences, I’ve had renting a car. The car was not available. They were over 40 people they are waiting. To get their cars, even though budget had said that they were open 24 hours there was one person workingReviewed 17 Mar 2024

This Budget rental is ran very well and has some good workers. I rented twice because my flight home was cancelled and both experiences were about the same except with different people. The lines were just a little long, that would be my only complaint.Reviewed 5 Mar 2024

Had a one hour long line to get to the counter! They sent me to a parking spot that didn’t have a car! Then sent me to another spot that had a big truck that was uncomfortable to drive and used a lot of gas!! I reserved a economy class carReviewed 19 Jan 2024

Liked the car. At pickup the car assigned to us had a soaked back seat and was also assigned to another family. Attendant found us another vehicle right away.Reviewed 14 Jan 2024

It was great however I must admit that I always rent for five weeks and when the rental is over a month they have to make it two separate transactions. There are always issues with my total rate that was booked and offered and the end cost when they separate it out to two transactions. I always have to end up calling and disputing the cost. I just wish budget would treat a rental over one month as one transaction. Certainly in this day and age they can figure that one out. Always disappoints.Reviewed 11 Dec 2023
