10.0 Wonderful
Nov 2019
Pros:
Easy check in and easy drip off6.0 Okay
Apr 2016
Cons:
Car was fine...not having free unltd mileage is totally bogus, and then acting like I'm a jerk for asking is worse. No one at the office, dude was late, then he was rude (and he was a lot later than the time it says I picked up the car). Returned car to a different location. Same dude. He refused to come check out the car to, to note the mileage, to tell me if there would be addition charges because "as you can see there are other people waiting." And then just started helping someone else. I fully expect to have enormous charges that I didn't expect. Not renting from Budget again.One location in Alice Springs

2.0 Poor
Nov 2018
Cons:
Poor service, so many hidden fees. A complete scam. And to make it worse the car broke down and their ‘supposed’ roadside service would not come unless they were paid an extortionist sum. You are warned, this is NOT a company worth doing business with.One location in Alice Springs
