Couldn’t have been easier, their right in Baggage claim, so there were a couple people in line when I got there, so I grabbed my baggage first, when I was done the had no customers. We gave our credentials, picked the car we were offered (happened to be the make and model we reserved) and the told us where to go to get it, and we were off! Car had minor other damage than the made me aware of, but they had explained what to do, so I took pics, sent them in, and there was no issue when I returned the vehicle at the end of the trip.

The employees were great and the check in process was a breeze. I just wish I had known a two door convertible was a potential outcome when I choose to get whatever car they had on hand for a discount.

Only one agent at the airport, extreme long wait time to pick up the car. Took about 1 hour, only 5 group ahead of us. Also our car tire leaked, at drop off time, since there is no agent, we couldn’t pass on that info, so next customer will suffer the same car problem

Pros:

Our flight was delayed coming into Durango, CO late at night and I was worried Budget would close and we’d be left stranded without a rental on our wedding weekend! Thankfully, Budget stayed open late until our flight landed and pick-up was a breeze. So appreciative of Budget accommodating our change in plans!

There was no agent at the counter at the agreed time of 10am. This delay cost me close to one hour.

They could have actually had the car I rented. I had to cancel the rental upon arrival for pickup because they did not actually have the car I rented and agreed to pay for.

Cons:

They would not let me adjust the name on my car rental, causing me to cancel. They then said there were not any cars available, even though I had cancelled my reservation with them in that moment causing me to completely lose my car rental.

Windshield was cracked and car needed an alignment. The car kept tugging to the left side. Avis drop off was a mess. I waited 40 minutes only to be told to leave the keys in the car and did not get a proper check out. Now I’m getting overcharged 200 dollars by Avis. Now I have to deal with this headache

Had to wait 15 minutes for someone to show up at counter. Did the check in etc okay. Was told we had to wait 25 minutes for car to get an oil change… After 1/2 hour I questioned when car was going to be ready and was told it was getting cleaned now. Walked over to hertz got a much nicer car for $200 cheaper. Told the ultra woke hippie wannabe at Enterprise we wanted to cancel… he replied “fine… cancelled… buh-bye” Other enterprise customers watched this and cancelled. Hertz had a good day renting cars for a Monday afternoon.

The selection was not what was advertised for that location. I got a much smaller car that had maintenance lights and service needed messages on the dash. I worried the whole trip that the darn thing was going to die. the counter help was good.
