Friendly staff. Car never broke down or had any hiccups. That was the extent of the positive parts. It was the most uncomfortable car I’ve ever been in. We were accused of causing over five scratches and paint issues on the car when we dropped it off. Thankfully, we took a video of it when we picked it up to prove that that was not our fault. If we had not taken a video, it would not have mattered that it wasn’t us. We would’ve been charged.

Everyone was great. They called prior to pick up to verify the type of vehicle I needed and to give me their operating hours. The vehicle was clean and we had no issues with it for the trip. I don’t rent cars often, but this location was so very kind and just plain nice. If I ever need to rent a car I will go out of my way to rent from them. Abby was the best.

We wanted a Tahoe, they gave us a 15 passanger dirty van. There was nobs missing or broken, large rips in the seats, crusted buggers all over the passanger side visor, and the driverside 2nd row vents. There was no spare tire. When we asked to change to a smaller vehicle the attendant stated the crack windshield was not ok to rent...when we returned they said he lied and they where rented. The return attendant was rude, and said rudly after hearing our complaint "well what do you want me to do about it". We will stick with Avis from now on.

Cons:

I reserved my car over a month in advance and was called the day before my arrival to Saint Louis airport. They stated they could not pick me up and I had to start a new reservation. The price increased dramatically (from $250 to $550) for the same time period. I called customer service and they could do nothing for me. I was forced to cancel my reservation with them and decided to go to their competitor which was Hertz. I paid $30 less but had somewhat better service.

Worked with a young lady named Heaven out of St Louis airport Budget rental. They had problems getting the transaction to go through so offered an upgrade. Only there 15min or so and left with a very nice vehicle. Always good when a company looks to make customers happy.

The price was very unreasonable. The website price vs at the counter upgrade price was 3x of the original price. Unacceptable. The customer service was great. The counter agent, Heaven, did provide us exceptional customer service and very helpful.

Better checking in procedures as passengers come in. They should be giving a number of something, said that they don't cut lines and people have to stand in line for hours waiting to check out, and the buddies come around holding the spots and checking in causing hazards. And someone is gonna get hurt. Especially located in saint, Louis Missouri. All the violence is that that that was a very bad experience I had. With budget thank you

When we arrived there were two clerks who moved slower than molasses on a January morning. The gentleman at the Budget counter was argumentative and rude. The lady was a bit more with it but disinterested in helping very much. We were in St. Louis because my partner was dying, my son and I needed to get there as soon as possible. We reached out to the online provider, and they were very helpful. I am so glad they were able to assist us in changing the reservation and obtaining the rental vehicle. I will not use Dollar services again.

They were closed when my plane arrived (on time as scheduled at 8:30pm). I never got a car. They were unapologetic that not informing me there would be no airport pickup or way to get the car I reserved left me stranded and scrambling to find a rental car last minute. I will Never do business with Dollar again. I suggest removing this Dollar store from your lists so this does not happen to anyone else.
