6.8 Okay

Dec 2017

KAYAK

Pros:

Price was excellent considering it was a one way rental. Car was in good condition, and ran well.

Cons:

Representative knew we were coming and was not at the desk when we arrived. She was out smoking and we ended up waiting for more than 10 minutes. I prepaid for a tank of gas and the car was only at 7/8ths.

2.0 Poor

Jun 2016

Cons:

Pick up staff was very rude, wasn't wearing shoes, felt like I was ruining his day to pick up my car. The car was also in bad shape with a flat tire, garbage and a sheering chatter.

Staff at counter needs courtesy training so unfriendly, unhelpful, and short. Questioned my reservation had to show him twice on my phone. But it’s whatever other than that great rate via kayak/Priceline I’ll probably rent at a other office though next time

8.0 Very good

Aug 2022

KAYAK
Everything was great except the car could have been cleaner. You could tell the windows inside the car haven't been wiped down in a long time. And the interior surfaces were not wiped down. It would be nice if budget would tint their cars windows, it is uncomfortable with a car full of kids in the summer.
