Check-in process was very long and price paid at the counter was double what I was expecting. Very unpleasant and I was never emailed a receipt like I was promised. The car wasn't even wiped down (maybe only vacuumed). Not impressed and will be reaching out to support to resolve this matter.Reviewed Jul 26 2025

I showed up after reserving my car and was told there was only a smaller car available. I was told the cost would remain the same despite the car being a small SUV. I cancelled my reservation and immediately went to Avis who gave me a larger SUV at a less price than I even paid originally. I will NEVER be using Budget again.Reviewed Aug 10 2024

The car was excellent and in excellent condition, but there were a lot of hidden fees that the company kept silent about. When choosing a car, the price on the website was $68 for two days, with hidden fees they charged $412 for two days. This is not pleasant, the company must inform customers about hidden fees. I will never go to Budget again because I feel cheated.Reviewed May 30 2024
