All good except for the fact that the pick up location was not at the airport that I wasn't expecting and no transportation bus to take us there and back. I had to spend an extra $50 each way to get all 4 of us back and forth so I think that should be made clearer if it was buried in the fine print. I apologize if I missed it but it should be spelled out in BOLD & LARGE PRINT!

We reserved from an off airport site to get a better rate. Took a taxi from the airport to the Enterprise location and they were closed due to covid. We couldn’t reach anyone by phone so went on to our hotel. Finally reached someone later in the day and they said they didn’t have my phone number or they would have contacted me. Funny I provided phone and email when I made the res. They said we could pick up our car at the airport location. Had to take taxi back to the airport. There and back cost $80.

Staff was friendly and efficient.

Car not clean, No shuttle service ($40.00 taxi). Also could not return car to airport without a charge of $150.00. Another taxi back to airport (just $25 this trip). Has anyone from corporate checked the condition of the office?

The drop off at Little Rock was very quick and convenient.

Our registration was for a Ford Focus....instead we ended up w/a much smaller Ford Fiesta. Instead of asking us numerous questions upon arrival, they could have read over our confirmation....it was almost all asked while we registered.

I reserved and paid for a full size car. Hertz oversold their inventory. I was given a Focus, at the same rate! No refund for downgrade. They gave me 1/2 tank of gas as a consolation.

Flew in and found out our car was unavailable. Had a parking lot full, but they were saving them for FEMA..which is fine, a disaster had just taken place. But to have no warning before being stranded at the airport is sad.

The staff member was helpful and friendly.

Waited in line for an hour due to having only one agent on duty. The vehicle was parked a long way from the rental desk, making it difficult for older folks to walk to get to.

The vehicle choice was wonderful. Premium SUV - had an Infinity. Loved the ride. Will continue booking thru kayak.

Every state has different rulings - additional driver in state of Florida was $15 per day. Would have been nice to know ahead of pick up. Oh well.

The van was spacious and suited my need. When I picked up the vehicle the lady at the desk was very polite.

When I picked up the vehicle nobody went with me to inspect the vehicle or to do a walk around to insure there were no issues. When I picked up the van it had NOT been cleaned inside. It appeared that it had NOT been checked to any specific standard other than it had a full tank of gas. All 4 tires were low and not a single one of them had the same pressure. I had to add 4,5,6 and 7 pounds of air respectively. I would have assumed that safety would have been a priority. I know well enough to check those things for myself, but what about people who don't? Very very disappointing

We had to wait in line for 3 hours to get our reserved rental car only to get more awful service and moved to a Tahoe which didn’t fit our family and luggage. Was then told we would get a discount which didn’t happen. Now I get to waste more time on the phone with Avis trying to get this figured out. If you are renting from the Destin/Fort Walton airport location….BEWARE!!

The car wasn’t ready. We had to wait an hour for them to clean it and when we got to the car, it wasn’t even clean—there was sand all over the floor still. Customer service was poor too. No one to greet us at drop off to make sure the rental was good or anything. As a preferred customer, we were not pleased with our experience.

We asked specifically for a car that seated 8 and we got a car that seated 7. There were no cars that seated 8 so someone had to ride illegally and unsafe the entire trip.

The lady that helped at Pickup was not helpful on instructing drop off after hours. The car stunk. And giving people the amount of seating they request is pretty vital.

The rental was not clean and even had ants… We dropped it off early. Additionally, even though we dropped it off the same day the reservation has not been closed out, so we are getting daily pending changes on our credit card (currently on day 4 of this madness).

Long wait, rude staff, disgusting dirty stained upholstery in car and I was over charged after returning a car I drove less than 50 miles. Not sure why, but I will never rent from budget again!

After a canceled flight at the destin airport on Saturday July 2, I was able to rent a car from you all at 10pm to make a 13 hour drive home. After getting to the car I saw the word “tire” was written on the window. Then when I turned in the car it gave a low pressure light. I went back in to ask someone to get a different car and no one was there to help me and all the car kiosks were closed. I couldn’t sleep at the airport so I drove the car to a gas station and put air in it. I didn’t feel comfortable and don’t believe it would have been safe as a single woman traveling alone in the middle of the night to begin a 13 hour drive not knowing what was going on with the tire. I then wasn’t able to make my non refundable $210 hotel reservation I had made outside of town and had to stay in a nearby hotel last minute for $300. I did this hoping that in the morning I could get the tire figured out and potentially exchange the car if needed once they had opened.

The car was given to me filthy. Surfaces were sticky and lots of hair all over sears, some food leftovers under the front seat. The counter person at the budget tricked me into paying for full tank. That was unacceptable.

Multiple flight delays & cancellations conspired to ruin my family's Spring Break vacation. After six hours of delays, our flight from Atlanta to Destin-Ft Walton was cancelled. Our National agent in Destin airport was extremely flexible and courteous which was a relief in all our bad travel experiences with Delta. We ended up renting a car from National in Atlanta and driving the five plus hours to Seaside, FL. One day later but, still had a good time.

No complaints about National this trip.
