The staff was frustrated but friendly. The car type I reserved wasn't available, so they offered me something smaller, but for the same price. The car I ended up with was dirty, smelled bad, was dented and seemed a bit mechanically wonky. It functioned for the rental period. Drop off was a problem. There was nobody at the location (during business hours). Several people were waiting outside the doors. Thirty plus minutes later an employee reappeared. He processed the drop off. While I waited for my ride, I heard him making several phone calls to people, explaining he didn't have the cars available they had reserved. He was friendly, but frustrated. This location is understaffed and their inventory system doesn't seem to be connected to reality. I will not use this location again.Reviewed 8 Aug 2026

I requested a specific car that you rent all the time, 1 week prior to my rental and was told that wasn't what I rented and what I needed was more money so I did that. I was then told the specific car I was requesting still could not be guaranteed. It is listed as a mid size suv, mazda cx50 or comparable. So I found something else with a different co. and saved $100! I will rent with them vs Budget anytime. Lady was rude on the phone. You lost my business and everyone I know! Shame on you for not being CUSTOMER FRIENDLY and inconveniencing me, the CUSTOMER!Reviewed 10 Jan 2026

Rented a car from the downtown location, but they called before pick up to notify that they had no cars to rent. Referred us to the airport location. The agent at the airport was very friendly and helpful and the rest of the rental process was very easy. The cost was reasonable and the car was clean.Reviewed 21 Jul 2025
