KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Arnold

  • Car rentals in Arnold provide the freedom and flexibility to explore at your pace. With Arnold car rentals, you can access places in and around Arnold that are not accessible by public transportation such as the Arnold Arboretum, the Missouri Botanical Garden, Forest Park, Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site, Six Flags St. Louis, and the St. Louis Zoo. With a rental car, you enjoy convenience and savings as a rental car is cheaper than public transport when traveling as a group.
  • There is one major airport in Arnold: St. Louis Lambert International Airport (STL). Car rentals in Arnold are located in Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. There is an airport shuttle that runs between the terminals and the rental car offices. The shuttle is free and runs every 15 minutes. The rental car offices are open every day of the week. You should book your rental car in advance, especially during peak travel times. Have your driver's license, credit card, and reservation number ready when you pick up your car.

  • When driving in Arnold, be cautious of jaywalkers and pedestrians unexpectedly entering the road without using crosswalks.

Exercise patience and heightened awareness at intersections and areas with heavy foot traffic. Adhering to traffic rules and staying vigilant will ensure the safety of both drivers and pedestrians in Arnold.

Adapting your travel times and exercising caution during these periods enhances safety and minimizes potential difficulties.

I was never able to get my car. I’m hoping I don’t get charged for a car I never picked up. Even though the pick up was supposed to be at the airport, my car was not there. I had to make a whole different reservation.

We were told they weren’t going to have our van. If we hadn’t stopped by the location a couple weeks before, we wouldn’t have found out until the day we were supposed to leave on our trip.

1. Vehicle showed Oil Maintenance Required but I was told it was safe to drive. Not true as I had to exchange the vehicle in the middle of my trip. 2. Had a query about a Toll charge, was told it was a vehicle I had not rented. Then was told that a charge would need to be processed to update the list of vehicles I had driven. 3. Replacement vehicle had Expired Registration

You need to be clearer in you app whether the rental location is at the airport or not. When I rented the car I had know way of quickly knowing that that place I reserved the car was not the airport rental but a second location 40 minutes away.

1.5 hour wait to reach counter. Then it was not the correct pickup location. Canceled reservation and Ubered. This is my last time using a car rental company.

I was expecting a Ford Edge, recieved a Ford Explorer. While upgrades are nice, the difference in gas milage was significant. We drove from St Louis to Yellowstone National Park and back. Also the car was not ready at our scheduled time so we had to wait for the car to be cleaned, about 20 min. While not Budgets fault, I did not like the dail shift control or the information screen in the explorer. The drop-off was quick easy and hassle free, but we were not given a receipt. As an experienced traveler, I knew that the receipt would be e-mailed to me, but my wife was upset that I could not tell her how much the car rental had cost at drop off.

Cons:

Have me an upgrade due to the high volume of business they have been experiencing. That was awesome, but they also we're turning vehicles around so quickly and focusing on sanitizing them that they did not have time to wash the exterior. Did not matter to me, it was just the only silly little thing I can say that wasn't flawless.

The Enterprise Airport office in St Louis saved the day! And I am grateful. Listened carefully, got me the car I needed (though it was "smoky" for my drive across Missouri, and overall I was satisfied. Keep the smokers away from your cars!!

Enterprise did not explain the drop off process. Since we were dropping off at 3am, their location was closed. I called their corporate location and they explained to me they their drop off location was at The Parking Spot, and that I needed to drop off the vehicle on the third floor and leave keys in drop box on first floor. There were absolutely zero signs signaling that this was a drop off location for a enterprise, and even on the third floor had zero indication that this is where Enterprise drop offs should be parked. Absolutely terrible customer service and I am lucky I did not miss my flight.

My husband and I traveled via Uber to Enterprise for a car we had reserved online. We never got the car because: We couldn't use a debit card(neither mine nor my husband's even though the cards are from the same bank); I don't drive but my husband has a valid license; when I called a utility company to text me a photo copy of my latest 'paid' gas bill; enterprise rejected it because his name wasn't on it; he does not have utility bills in his name. I offered to pay cash to no avail. Finally when we had exhausted our options, we were stranded and it was too late to try another rental agency so we caught another taxi home. Enterprise discriminates! I am seeking other horror stories about Enterprise too post.
