Pros: You couldn’t pay me to drive a Suzuki Swift back home...until Inhired this car. Great customer service and this car was LEGEND.
Cons: Honestly, the insurance cost more than I expected, but might as well make sure I have $0 liability Incase of a catastrophe. Everything else was top, 100%, LEGIT, LEGEND. Insurance wasn’t even that expensive so maybe I’m being a drama queen, haha!
Pros: Airport Brisbane Location great, staff even better. All option given, no issues. Drop off at Capalaba no issues nor delays, excellent! Value for money really good if you book through AirNZ.
Pros: Immaculate presentation, hybrid was amazingly economical
Cons: Price was very expensive

Pros: Horrible service. This isn't worth my time, as this site doesn't give me ample space to explain the horrendous predicament caused by this business.
Pros: Dis not rent car in Ascot
Cons: Car was filthy inside.
Drop of at BNE airport was terrible. Had to go into the airport to get trolley for luggage. Had to then go to level 2 to drop off the keys. Should have trolleys and someone on site to drop off.
More than happy
Pros: The service from start to finish.
Cons: Nothing
Good value, and service
Pros: Friendly counter staff
Good car,
fuel efficient, clean, reliable
Good customer service
Pros: Nice car overall. Kathryn that checked us into our rental was great and helpful!
Cons: One way drop of fee and other fees exceed rental. Disingenuous at best
Cons: Service level = 0!
no staff on site - have to find the counter - no final close-out.
Cons: I was unable to use the service but the website wouldn't let me cancel my reservation. I would got to the screen, Are you sure you want to cancel your reservation, and it would not let me choose yes. Since I was abroad, I couldn't call. Will never use this again!

Great and cheap rental vehicle, service was decent enough too.
Pros: Vehicle, price, service was ok.
Cons: I had done my application online, but the Budget office at the Brisbane airport had NO WORKING INTERNET CONNECTION, so I was unable to show them what I had purchased on my laptop. Yep, that's right. I had to purchase a MORE EXPENSIVE deal there, and then had to drive downtown the next day to the Budget office and get it straightened out, and I'm still not sure that it was done properly.
Pros: All very simple and easy. Good price
Pros: Car was spotless. Would be nice to have a new model to have a connection with android auto. Kiosk was friendly. Couldnt have asked for a nicer person to help me with. Offered advice when i needed some.
Cons: Just would prefer a new model car to link with android auto
Pros: Great car, excellent service, easy pick up and drop off.
Cons: Compared to other car rentals in Australia, this was very expensive.
Drop off excellent
Pros: Agent met us in the drop-off area with a cart for luggage and the receipt ready.

Great experience for the price - good value.
Pros: The staff were very friendly and helpful.
We decided we wanted to extend another day and called a few hours before we were due to return and Alpha were happy to add another day on at the same price - no excessive charge which was great.
No complaints about the car either, great condition and very economical which helped with the overall expense of hiring a car!
Cons: The pick up / shuttle service is a little clunky and adds time on to the overall exchange but it’s worth it for the cheaper price you get for shopping a little further a field.
Value for money and friendly staffs!
Pros: Staffs are very friendly. Very patience in explaining all important things to tourist like me. Pickup and drop-off are hassle free especially the drop-off. No problem with car throughout the whole rental.

Direct conscise friendly and a nice guy.
Cons: All good.
Great car hire company
Pros: Cheap pricing, good cars and excellent service
Cons: A little difficult to find the address
Pros: Good price, fast checkout and shuttle to airport.
Cons: GPS didn’t work very well, and on arrival at the airport there was no shuttle waiting for us. Needed to borrow and cell phone to call for a pickup. As oversea travellers there should be a shuttle already waiting, as they had our flight details.
Get what you pay for
Pros: Easy pick up and drop off at airport
Cons: Exterior of car was dirty and tires needed air, had to demand a new car after we looked at the car and saw the wheels bowing out from lack of air. Terrible customer service, dodgy insurance eg claims you have rediculous excess to pay even if you aren’t in fault of any damage to the car, even if it’s fault of another driver.
Pros: Car was very clean and comfortable
Cons: Hidden extras in costs, our total ended up being double what we had originally planned. Two to four weeks to return the $200 bond, am currently trying to find out why so long.

Pros: The original lady i spoke to at Hendra was excellent. However had to make several calls to get advice on repairs to puncture i had recieved. Phone Brisbane office which then transfers you to Hendra where you have to wait lengthy waits at both places. Very frustrating.
Cons: The actual cost was more than i expected in fact double because of insurance costs. Plus i had half a day getting a puncture repaired as tyre dealers didn't have the unusual size that Hyudai have put on there latest cars.
Pros: Half an hour to be served at tge counter
Shit service
Pros: Nothing it wa shit
Cons: Everything - it was shit
Mandy at Reception
Pros: She went above and beyond the call of duty and got google maps activated and working on my phone.
Website suggested the car hire desk was in the ter
Pros: Staff were friendly and efficient.
Cons: The website and car rental voucher suggested that I would collect the car in the terminal, but instead I had to get a shuttle to East Coast's office which was not within the airport grounds.

Brisbane streets are generally rather wide and provide ample room for all the drivers on the road, so you don’t need to sacrifice space when choosing your rental car. Depending on your personal needs, an intermediate sedan will likely provide enough comfort and power to accommodate all of your driving demands.
Built-up areas such as residential or commercial roads have a speed limit of 50 km/h (31 mph) unless otherwise indicated. On most highways, you will be able to increase your speed to 100 km/h (62 mph), while certain larger highways will have a limit of 110 km/h (68 mph).
The average price of one liter of gas in Brisbane is approximately $1.46 AUD, which translates to approximately $4.28 USD per gallon. This is more than what you can expect to pay in the United States.
If you are heading into the city and looking for cheap, short-term parking, consider a shopping center where you will often receive free parking for the first two hours. There are plenty of available spaces in parking lots in the CBD area; most notably, the Brisbane City Council offers $5 all-day parking on weekends at both King George Square and Wickham Terrace.
