The line at the pickup counter was very very long. There were plenty of agents at the counter but it still took almost an hour to get checked in. The agents were also very nice and helpful, but the whole process just took so long. On that point alone, I'll look for a different rental company in the future.Reviewed 22 Mar 2026

unfortunately our flight was delayed and the initial pickup reservation did not allow us to check in via the application. when we arrived at the counter the personnel were dealing with a large number of passengers who also arrived late. It took over 2 hours to get through the check-out line. I can't understand what was taking the people so long to check out. There were 3 attendants working. We arrived just before 2 am and didn't get through the checkout line until after 4am. Big kudos to the personnel who stayed and worked overtime. Just not a great start to the vacation.Reviewed 18 Mar 2026

We did not get the car we had reserved or anything close to it. After standing in line for over an hour to get it, I wasn't about to get back in line to fight it. We had reserved a Mid Suv. Description said Toyota Class Intermediate SUV or similar. We got a 4 door low to ground Kia. Never rented from Budget before and very disappointed. Worst car experience I have had by far.Reviewed 18 Mar 2026

They threw a rate change at us at pick up, but did not verbally say so. Yes, we signed the agreement in front of us, but no one said that there was an increase for the weekend. Ended up being an extra thousand dollars on top of the original booking for just three days.Reviewed 16 Mar 2026
