Cons: When I book a car I should get it and not be canceled without any notification
Pros: Nice enough car.
Cons: No one would answer the phone at the rental office. Also, the staff were no help at all on driving directions to our destination. They actually sent us in the wrong direction and wasted an hour of our time.
Pros: The agents at the Budapest airport pick-up location were very friendly.
Cons: The van I reserved was not available and I had to settle for a smaller SUV. The initial reservation I submitted for an SUV was roughly 550 Euro, after changing my reservation to a Van the quote changed to roughly 750 Euro. What I received was a Jeep Renegade that I ended up paying over 920 Euro! Also, when I returned the vehicle to the Belgrade airport it took me over an hour because that station was not expecting a one way rental from Budapest even though it was booked that way. I almost my flight because it took such a long time to return the vehicle. They would also not give me a receipt for my booking.

Like many European cities, Budapest has many pre-automobile era roads and lanes that are ill suited for larger vehicles. Thus, if you plan to fully explore the city, then you are better off renting a smaller vehicle such as a compact or a sedan. Smaller vehicles are especially recommended if you will be parking in the downtown areas.
For the most part, drivers can expect speed limits of 50 km/h (31 mph) throughout Budapest and in towns and cities across Hungary. On smaller highways and open roads, the speed limit bumps up to 90 to 110 km/h (56 to 68 mph) and on the fastest highways it goes all the way up to 130 km/h (81 mph).
The average price of gas in Budapest is about 365 HOF ($1.29) per liter of gas. In gallons that comes out to about 1381.53 HOF ($4.87), which isn’t bad at all for Europe.
In general, streetside parking is not too difficult to find in Budapest, particularly in the outer districts of the city. However, in the more historical parts of town, streetside parking can become scarce and, if spots are available, they tend to be limited in size. Private parking garages and lots are available and are a great option for drivers visiting the central areas of the city.
