Had to wait 20 min for a Bidget shuttle while 7 (yes seven) shuttles for Alamo, Enterprise and almost every other rental car passed by. When we got to the rental car building the line to rent wrapped clear around the building. Serious 75 yard long line. It was unbelievable, the longest I’ve ever seen for a rental co. And it moved at a snails pace. Hours. Absolutely ridiculous and unacceptableReviewed May 3 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 Apr 6 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 Mar 26 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 Mar 4 2024
