The car I hired was fine until the left front tyre started leaking. I had to fill it with air in Philadelphia, Baltimore and Richmond. When I got to Charlottesville, I took it to the Budget location at the airport. They did swap the car but: 1. The vehicle was of a lower standard than that I had originally booked 2. The staff did not care 3. When I went back to the counter to report damage to the car they had just given me, I was told they don't check for damage so as not to concern myself with any damage. Why I was not given like for like was not explained. There appeared to be lots of Budget vehicles in the lot that were comparable to the one I dropped off, even if a different make. I find this odd for a car rental company to downgrade especially when there is a mechanical issue with the car being swapped. At the very least I should have been upgraded!Reviewed 20 Jul 2024

Staff person was unfriendly probably due to being overwhelmed. Had to serve 4 customers at once, became confused and it took 90 minutes to complete the checkout.Reviewed 16 Jul 2024

Took nearly 3 hours from the time I arrived at Budget to driving off in the car. Just standing in the initial line took over an hour. Then had to wait for the car to be ready. Got the car, loaded it, realized the center console was totally dead. Had to unload and get a new car that wasn't cleaned.Reviewed 26 Jun 2024

Line was about 20 people long and each person that went to the counter took 10 mins. We waited 40 mins and the line barely moved. I went to Hertz and walked up, got a rental, and left - all within 5 mins.Reviewed 26 Jun 2024
