I was greeted with a smile. The check in took only a few minutes. The vehicle was clean and in good condition. The agent made excellent notes of a few minor body damage. It was nice to know the damage was noticed and that I would not be charged for it. I will definitely rent from Budget again.Reviewed 2024 Sept 02

Several additional fees added on top of quoted price which was the equivalent of an extra 35%. Very disappointing and dishonest to have a cost quoted on kayak as the “total cost” to then have it cost so much more.Reviewed 2024 Aug 29

The location on Somerset street Ottawa is my absolute worst experience with car rental. Vehicle had so many KM and was starting to fall apart. Vehicle was dirty even though they said it was clean. Back seatbelt didn’t work. Weird brake noises. Was charged $750 credit card hold.Reviewed 2023 Aug 07
