They wouldn’t except my card so I could not rent from them and now I’m out $32 bucks on the insurance I paid for up front. Straight BS

Drop off was good. Truck was good. Pick up was bad. Korean lady was rude during pick up and took almost an hour to get our truck. Wasted time.

2.0 Poor
I am currently working on getting money back. I picked up and dropped off car to and when agreed upon. Unfortunately they show the car dropped off at a different location. To make matters worse, they show a different vehicle than what I used. I hope they are able to resolve this.

2.0 Poor
The car had not been cleaned from its previous use. There was dirt and dog hair everywhere and trash left inside.
C
2.0 Poor
The staff was incredibly rude and as though you were disrupting their day by picking up your rental. It was very awkward, and just overall awful to deal with these people.
A
4.0 Mediocre
People working at budget were very rude. Vehicle was very dirty, and we found tons of things from the previous people who rented it. Drinks, food, socks etc
