Staff was friendly and helpful, the pickup was not a long wait, the car was in great condition. The only disappointing thing was that the price I reserved the car online for was quite a bit cheaper than what I ended up paying when I got there, due to additional fees. I prepaid a full tank of gas but I never used that much gas. I would have assumed my payment would have been adjusted based on how much gas it took to refill the tank when I returned.

Manager’s Special was a Subaru Impreza that wouldn’t even make it over the spikes to get out of the rental garage without bottoming out. Side view mirrors had something on them that wouldn’t come off which made driving dangerous. The car was as loud as our plane flying in. I won’t knock the tech in the Subaru as that’s not under their control, but it was horrible as well. I’ve never had a car this bad before, I’ll certainly make sure to specify if I ever rent from Dollar again, which maybe unlikely at this point.

My main critique with the rental experience was due to the booking over a third party. When I committed to renting the car, it showed a "Total" cost of $103 for the 2 day rental. Which I thought was a reasonable price. When I recieved the email confirmation of the rental, it showed a total of $213. This was quite surprising to me, and I immediately tried to contact someone to find out the reason for the increase. And had no luck. It was not possible to answer the email, it was a no reply message. Then at the pickup, with insurance and taxes, I ended up paying $382. Almost 4 times as much as originaly promised as "total cost." I was shocked and disappointed by this increase and dishonesty. I will certainly not be using any third party platforms for car rentals in the future. Respectfully, Brenda Gerner

$57 rate for any car they wanted to give me sounded pretty good with undisclosed fees taxes and extra charges including charging me for 20 gallons of gas when I actually used 10 bill for three days came to $525

The tyres on our Mustang were so worn as to be unsafe. We discovered this when we had a puncture. We replaced all 4 tyres and Budget reimbursed us. But the car should never have been rented out with such tyres.

My only annoyance was a "change oil required" message on the dashboard. As it turned out the car had been recently serviced but the computer not reset. Unfortunately, we couldn't find this out over the phone so had to waste half a day of our holiday going to the nearest Budget location. Otherwise, we were very happy with the car. Message to Budget: make sure the car's computer is reset after servicing!

The best part of my car rental experience was dropping off the dirty vehicle budget gave me. The worst part of my experience.... 1. The budget counter had 5 associates working, and I still had to wait over 15 minutes in line. When I rent from Enterprise, I wait less than a minute and I'm out on the road. 2. The sales rep helping me with my rental was trying to upsell me every optional package. I politely told him I'm in a rush as my wife had an appointment, and I need to get going asap. And yet, he INSISTED on explaining to me every optional package after I told him I'm in a time crunch. Awful customer service. 3. The car was DIRTY. There was dirt on the dashboard, nothing was vacuumed. There was trash in the seat pockets behind driver and passenger seats that was left over from previous customers. Budget should be ashamed of themselves for allowing dirty vehicles to get rented. 4. I should have received a discount on my rental given how dirty the inside of the car was. Just awful.

When I arrived they couldn’t find my confirmation number and had zero cars to rent so I had to go to another rental place and had to pay $600 for what they had! It was an expense I wasn’t prepared for to say the least. And the people at the enterprise counter were very rude and not helpful at all. I’ll never go through enterprise ever again.

The staff were very friendly and more than happy to work with you. Being from out of state there were some difficulties but they were instrumental in making them easy to deal and smooth.

When I was looking through the car there were fries and pringles under the seat. I do think a little more transparency about fees and processes would have been nice, however, the fault is on both sides as I did not explicitly say I was from out of state when they called to confirm.

Everything went smoothly, the car was what we asked for and in good condition. Returning the car was super easy with very clear instructions. Picking up the car was also fine but the person ringing us up tried very very hard to upsell. I work in sales so I get it but it was almost uncomfortable. Not a huge deal, just prepare to say no a lot if you aren’t looking to upgrade your rental.

This is a terrible experience. Upon arrival to the rental station the employee found our booking started typing and presented us with multiple insurance options, which we all declined, since we use our Amex for car rentals that has a nice insurance and travel package with it. After declining every extra cost, he presented us with the rental agreement that was 160 dollars more than the quote we signed up and booked via kayak. We asked him why there is a discrepancy and showed him our original booking and rate. He looked at it and told us that he doesn't know and he doesn't care, since this is the rate that he can offer us and all these online sites are always lying about prices and offers !!!!! I told him that I have rented through other online sites multiple times and never had a discrepancy, which is when he told me that this is the best offer he has and we should either take it or go somewhere else. At this point we had no choice but to rent a car that kept going up and up upon adding a second river. From the original quote of 680 bucks we ended up having to sign a contract for 995 dollars. Horrible experience. never again/

I booked this car rental for pick up at the SeaTac airport. Once I arrived, there was no rental waiting for me even though I prepaid for it. Turns out, this website booked it for the hertz in NORTHERN SEATTLE. And since my flight was delayed, I had a half an hour to get to northern seattle to pick up the car I paid for before they closed. Not to mention I had my 4 kids and husband with me. We were then stuck between a rock and a hard place, so we had to rent another car. Once trying to get a refund because of the mess up, I was told since it was after the scheduled pickup I couldn’t cancel or get my money back. We will NEVER use this website ever again. Especially for car rentals. $1000 f up.

Rental location in downtown Seattle was convenient. My rental cay was late model, had nice features and amenities, and was delivered in clean-enough condition. The car was delivered with a supposed full tank of gas but the actual fuel level was lower. Once I noticed and pointed out, the staff corrected the contract to reflect correct fuel level.

Primary issue - Location not at the airport which caused a large amount of wasted time and required paying for transportation to/from the airport. Secondary issue - The location is understaffed and very slow, no Gold member board, and the contract was not ready for me on arrival.

I booked the car at Seattle Seatac airport. After arriving at airport Hertz counter found out the booking is for Hertz north Seattle. I had to take an Uber to get there which was 40 min ride. At that location they did not have any cars and I had to wait 2 hours to get a very dirty car. Needed to return it to the same place and take an Uber back to the airport. Tried to contact Kayak but was not able to connect by phone. Need a refund for all these trouble. Will follow-up with an email to Kayak executive manangement.

Rented a car with a different drop off than pickup. Went to pick it up, then was told we had to return it to the same place, as the airport hertz didn’t take minivans. Are you kidding me. First of all the reservation should not have been made with a return to the airport if that was not allowed. Talk about bait & switch. Secondly there were minivans in the hertz parking area so I don’t even believe that. Thirdly hertz prices have gotten out of control. There’s a lot of other rental car agencies and we went elsewhere 3 times on this trip even though we’re gold members.

Staff was nice.

The cars weren’t spotless, but that wasn’t a problem for me. We did get have to exchange cars due to a tire issue. We called ahead and discussed it with E-Z Rent-a-Car. They said they made a note on our profile and there would be no problem coming back and exchanging the car. When we got there, they didn’t seem to know what we were talking about and we spend a little longer than necessary due to some confusion about the exchange. Worked out in the end.

Car smelled terribly of smoke, super long wait at pickup while the only staff st the desk was chatting with the only customer in front of me, stating “I’m taking my time to see if a car comes in for you”. I had already reserved and paid online, to “save time” the website said.
