Good value. Car could have been washed, but that’s OK.Reviewed Apr 15 2025

The woman who helped us was rude. We came in 30 minutes early and our type of car wasn’t available. She said she only had a mini van and couldn’t give us the same price on it until our reservation time. We had to pay the upgrade from a sedan to mini van. That was bad enough but she was also just not nice or helpful.Reviewed Mar 3 2025

Budget was great. There was a problem with the car they initially assigned, but they promptly reassigned us a different car. Drop off was super easy and so really appreciate that as the last time I rented from a different company (also through Kayak) the experience was horrible, especially drop off. Based on that last experience I was a little nervous about another rental, but Budget was great! Will definitely use Budget againReviewed Feb 24 2025

I was thrilled to find Budget around the corner from my house. When I arrived the clerk was extremely rushed and rude. When I asked if she was doing okay she said "that that was her being polite." She essentially threw the paperwork at me. The car I reserved was not available and I was put in a very large minivan (that I wasn't super comfortable driving) and when I got to the car the carpet was filthy. I tried to ask for a new car and the clerk just waved me off. She didn't even speak to me or say anything about the car upon drop-off.Reviewed Feb 2 2025

Car had a mechanical problem and had to be exchanged which took a lot of time. Also I have not yet received a receipt yet even though I returned the car two days ago.Reviewed Jan 14 2025

A terrible experience. Had to wait 2+ hours for my car and was charged with tons of hidden fees. I was told that I would get an upgrade. I never did. I hated the experience and it wasn’t safeReviewed Oct 10 2024

We reserved a car for about $270, but when we got there, they changed our car and the total ended up being $555. I understand there’s taxes and fees but the website isn’t transparent about that.Reviewed Aug 19 2024
