About Budget Car Rental

Budget Car Rental offers a mixed experience for customers. While some customers found the staff, particularly Cindy, to be friendly, efficient, and accommodating, others encountered issues with the condition of the vehicles and felt the owner was not the most customer-centric. Despite these challenges, the staff was able to resolve issues and provide alternate vehicles to minimize disruptions to customers' plans.
