I rented through Costco. When I went to pick up my car, the service person said I was on the "do not rent to" list. I believe it had to do with a claim I filed last year that was resolved (or so I thought). The service person gave me a number to call and I got a voice mail twice which wasn't helpful - they never did call me back. The service person then made a few calls and finally agreed to rent to my husband. The service person was very helpful. It would have been nice to have known about this situation before showing up at the Budget counter.

Kayak did not make it clear the opening hours of this location, which caused real issues when flight to Boston arrived late. Budget worked things out for us but wish Kayak information was clearer.

The Budget Rental on 270 Atlantic avenue in Boston does not provide an airport courtesy ride. Customers using this facility must be prepared to ride a cab or Uber to this location. The rental had less than half tank of gas. Most rental companies I have used normally provide a full tank of gas and the vehicle is returned with a full tank.

The receptionist was friendly. Good experience. The only enhancement would be an explanation of where to return the car ( a sign would be helpful as the return area is inside a fence area).

Cons:

I had scheduled a pickup at 11:00pm and thought I had confirmed that there would be someone there at that time. However, on my confirmation document, the time was 12:00 pm and I am not sure how that happened. Long story short, when we arrived at the location, there was no one there and when I phoned, the agent told us that pickup had been scheduled for 12:00 noon. They gave away our reserved vehicle to someone else. Due to high demand for vehicles during that time period, we did not get a vehicle for our vacation. The Enterprise agent said that there was nothing they could do because the reservation had been made with a third party.

Pros:

Loved the rate and that I could add two days to my rental easily.

Cons:

Not likely your fault but I wish I had been able (or aware of the possibility) to drop the car at the Albany Rennselear Train Depot where there was an Enterprise Car Rental desk in the station, rather than at the Airport. The problem is that Albany has not gotten its act together (for questionable reasons) to create a logical- and affordable way to get from the Airport to the Amtrak Train station in Rennselear without paying a steep taxi fare or wasting in excess of one hour by bus, when it is about fifteen minutes drive.

Cons:

After waiting in line at the Avis counter at the BOS airport, the Avis associate indicated that my pick up location was the location downtown not the airport. I had indicated on my Kayak search that I wanted BOS airport but I suppose I didn't look at the details to see that it was the location on Atlantic Ave. Not a huge deal but did have to get an Uber (or could have ridden the blue line) to get to the downtown location. Upon picking up the car on the 7th floor of the parking garage there was 1 woman working who we had to yell out for because nobody seemed to be around. She came from behind another vehicle and was on a personal phone call and had to tell the person on the phone that she'd "call you back because I have a customer". Not a huge deal I suppose but not the greatest of customer service that the person on the counter downstairs should have called up to the 7th floor to indicate we were coming. The car on the other hand smelled like marijuana inside. Not completely reeking of it but definitely could tell someone had smoked in it somewhat recently. I indicated this to the woman upstairs who said that she would note it and credit my account however nothing has come through indicating any credit. We were in a hurry because of the location mix up so didn't have time to potentially swap cars and the woman did not offer that up any way.
