10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Super friendly counter employee at SBA.
Cons:Dodge Charger was a little dirty inside...and had over 24k miles on it
A
7.6 Good
Pros:I like that the car was small, but could handle the California Interstates just fine. What I didn't like was having to hunt for the gas cap release button. Didn't know they still existed.
Cons:When I turned in the car, I saw a budget employee - who I've dealt with before - try to put the fear of God into an elderly gentleman who was renting a car. REALLY tried to sell him on the consequences of not having insurance through Budget. This man is PUSHY; I will not deal with him. In contrast, the two women I dealt with - one for picking up and other for bringing back - were delightful. Another problem: Lack of enough rental car parking spaces, so some returns were parked in front of cars trying to get out.

9.6 Wonderful
Pros:Easy in and out.
A
2.0 Poor
Cons:We reserved a four door sedan. When we arrived at Budget, we were told that we had a Smart Car. There was absolutely NO WAY that we would fit in. Smart Car. We had to pay $20 extra each day to upgrade to a larger vehicle. We paid way more than we would have, if we had just rented directly from car rental.
A
7.6 Good
Pros:ease of drop off and pick up
Cons:Expensive last minute rental and they couldn't offer me a better deal at the counter because I booked through Kayak

10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Friendly and helpful staff, pick up and drop off were easy.
Cons:Car could’ve been a tiny bit cleaner, but I’m just being extra nit-picky at this point.
A
9.6 Wonderful
Pros:The reps at Budget SBA were great! Very helpful and accommodating. We had to change our rental dates a couple times and they made sure we got the best rates without having to ask.
Cons:Car had to be exchanged because of unknown mechanical issue. This was done easily. Budget phone operators were difficult to manage reservations with. Stick with the reps at SBA directly!
C
