|Sep 2023Wonderful experience! Budget/Avis agents at the Geneva Airport (French sector) were very helpful and friendly, answered all my questions with patience and knowledge. The vehicle was above expectations (Renault Captur), comfortable, spacious, clean, efficient, equipped with GPS and a lot of automatic features that made driving worry-free and much easier. Price was reasonable, compared to other companies' comparable rentals. The return process at the Budget/Avis station (French sector) was simple and fast. I am totally satisfied with this rental and highly recommend Budget for the excellent price/quality ratio of their rental services.

|Jul 2023We had booked a car for 5 people and 5 items of luggage and had been assured it would be an Opel Mokka or similar which would have been a sufficient size. Unfortunately when we arrived we were given a Skoda Fabia which was in a lower size category to what we had booked. No alternative was offered and we had to remove the luggage shelf and lower shelf in the boot to fit in our luggage. Our 3 children also had to squash into the back seat for the duration of the holiday. Not very satisfactory.

|Oct 2023this was the second time this summer I rented a car from AVIS. The first time they did not have the car I requested and had go to a different location in the town. the second time they brought a car out and again not the one I had requested, and the car was so filthy outside and when I opened the car door the inside has not been vacuumed and paper and plastic bottles were still in there. they the offered me another car that was again dirty on the outside. Not happy with Avis.

|Sep 2023I did not realize when I rented the car that there were two parts of the airport… The Swiss and the French side. So first I went to the Swiss side and she said oh no, your car is at the French side. I went down there and he was very clear that I must not return the car according to the Maps that I had, but I was to use a Q code. It was the most aggravating, horrible, frustrating, and challenging return I have ever made in my whole life! I didn’t know how to get there. I tried several times, I went and scoped it out initially, and it was just absolutely awful. Trying to return the car. I have no idea why you have two separate rental areas in one airport.! Otherwise once I got there, it was quite easy and renting was just great.

|Jul 2023Two main things: 1. Even though the site clearly says that the pick up is on the French side, nowhere it explains the implications of it. 2. I was renting a car in Geneva - Switzerland- but the car did not have the authorization to drive in highways of the country where the city is. What makes it worse is the fact that when asked where to buy, no one said that it could be purchased at the airport. So I now have a risk of being fined because I had to drive in Switzerland to buy what is needed.
