We arrived 30 min before their closing time, but the entire staff was gone. We called and walked around and could not find anyone to give us our car. We had to go to Alamo to rent a car at 1 AM so we could drive a couple more hours to our destination. When talking with someone on the customer service line, they said there was nothing they could do and suggested we just take an Uber (at our own expense). I will never rent from Budget again.Reviewed 5 Dec 2024

There was no clear information. I was charged something pretty different from what I reserved. The car nearly broke down. The car was almost empty when I left and I had to ask the person checking me out about it. I am never renting from budget and/or this location ever again.Reviewed 3 Dec 2024

Longest line imaginable. Nothing moving. Would have taken over an hour to pick up the car based on the number of people waiting and the time per customer. I just left and didn’t come back.Reviewed 2 Dec 2024
