I highly recommend not using budget. Not only did we have a terrible experience with a car not being available after reserving at seven months in advanced when I made a complaint, I heard nothing back. They basically took a vacation that was meant to be once in a lifetime it made it extremely stressful. We ended up going with enterprise and they were fantastic. The lack of response from budget shows that they do not care about the people they are servicing.

I reserved a large sedan for a trip cross country. When I arrived my only option was a truck. Obviously not happy with it and the additional fuel cost that I would occur during the trip. I kindly asked for a discount and they wouldn’t offer me one, not even 10%. And was told if they charged me for a truck the cost would be double, so be happy

I would recommend the Hoosick St Troy, NY location. Customer Service was awesome for pickup and drop off.
