I had to replace the first vehicle because of roaches but budget took great care of meReviewed 10 Apr 2024

It was good. Budget helped me about the drop off and it was easy to solve some issues. However, the cleanness of the car was really poor. We found stuff and belongs to earlier renters under the seats.Reviewed 6 Apr 2024

Even though I got better car than expected, due to change of the flight time, I went 5 hours later to pick up and they charged me for late pickup. Finally, they returned money after complaining.Reviewed 26 Mar 2024

Great customer service experience. Busy line up at pick up. Found medication/vitamins rolling around the back which wasn’t ok since I had young kids in the back. Noticed the tires were also balding, and it was set up in Spanish when I got it. All in all, service was pleasant, car was a great fit. Some things could be worked on.Reviewed 4 Mar 2024

After 30 mn waiting and the same queue of 25 people in front of me, i was forced to loose my reservation and get a cab in order not to miss my business meeting. Never seen such an inefficient organization in my whole life. Total disaster.Reviewed 13 Jan 2024

The vehicle itself was making funny noises in the engine. Also, the price I booked at, it charged me $80 more. I need to reach out to sort why this happened.Reviewed 10 Jan 2024
