pickup staff was very slow moving as a line built up. Once I had registered for the prepaid car, I went to the retrieval area where I waited 20 minutes before a car was provided, and that only thanks to the Asian woman (I don't know her name) who was getting people to their cars. Drop off, on the other hand, took < 1 minute.Reviewed 23 Oct 2026

I went to rent the car and the person told me that for some reason I have been black listed and cannot rent the car. I told them that Budget just gave me a car on rent two weeks ago, payment was taken from my credit card without any issue. They still refused to rent one. I went to Enterprise which is next door, got the SUV and went home.Reviewed 23 Oct 2026

The drop off was fine in Detroit. The shuttle from the airport to the Budget office was greatly delayed so there were many of us waiting for quite a long time. The pick up was the worst experience ever for renting a car. There were over 50 people in line and the line continued outside in the rain and cold. I was more in the front of the line, which took an hour to get service. The employees were doing their best but the problem was there were no cars. They had to wait until a car came in, got cleaned before it was ready. I didn't get the car that I had reserved but got another car of higher value for the same price. I was saying yes to the option because the wait was cutting into my trip. I can only imagine the others with families having to wait and wait. I probably won't go through Budget-Avis ever again.Reviewed 22 Oct 2026

I did not receive the vehicle I booked for an upgrade. Instead of a GMC Terrain I got a Ford Bronco sport which was in my opinion, less comfortable and smaller . The windshield also had a wind whistle that I listened to for 11 days. I was not impressed.Reviewed 21 Oct 2026

Too few staff to check in- waited over an hour in line with many others. One bench and the “Free Water” cooler was full of trash. Got my estimate which was costly then became ludicrously high. Not going to use this company again. Staff were fine. Car fine. Return signage needs drastic improvementReviewed 21 Oct 2026
