Vehicle was upgraded as The original was not available. The cost for 5 days was a gouge in my opinion. Had my flight arrived on Friday or earlier on Saturday I would have gone off site and saved almost Half my money.

I am a single person traveler and they stuck me in a minivan. She asked if I wanted to buy a full tank of gas without telling me she was giving me a hybrid. The check in process was very long. One staff member for a lot of people. I was lucky enough to be 4th in line but it still took 40 minutes to get on the road. Some of the questions were just bizarre. I’ve never been asked where I work before. The drop off staff was very efficient. That process took less than 5 minutes. There were also more attendants for drop off.

After arriving at the Route 501 location in MB, I was informed they did not have the car we reserved and was told to proceed to MBI Airport to exchange the vehicle. I arrived and had to wait about an hour to exchange the vehicle after management spoke to the Route 501 location. I was then assigned a bigger vehicle, which I loved, but the battery was dead. Back to the office to get another vehicle of the same make amd model, but was delayed another 45 minutes. That car had extremely dirty windows, but was otherwise clean. Was a bit disappointed about the overall experience, but understood it wasn't the office personel's fault at the airport.

The registration people were nice, but they had a new computer system and it took about 45 minutes to get our documents.

They didn't have the vehicle I had requested and upgraded me to a truck, which was enormous to park and had no place to lock our luggage. The truck smelled like someone had smoked in it.

Oh my gosh I loved the car we rented! The only thing I would change is there were 2 slots with the same number and we didn’t know. So we got to the first one. We had a team member come over and inspect a few spots on the car so we wouldn’t be charged for them. After getting my 93 year old grandmother and all our luggage loaded, we couldn’t figure out why the car refused to start. We checked with another team member to be told we were in the wrong one and ours was across the road in the second spot. The team member said not to worry and he went and switched everything to the van we were in and got us the right keys for that vehicle. He saved the day! The car was perfect and we will definitely use you again for our trip next year!

The car was in great shape, the people working there were very helpful and the price of the rental was reasonable. My only suggestion is to offer a shuttle to take you from the airport to the car rental lot (which is about a 10 minute cab ride). Thank you!

Be careful when booking in Myrtle Beach. We thought we were scheduling pickup/dropoff at the airport but unintentionally selected Myrtle Beach Coastal Strand Mall. The guy at the AVIS counter was great in helping us out despite our mistake. Still, we had to wait in line over three hours to reach the Avis Counter. They had a line out the doors of the rental office but only one person working the counter on a Sunday afternoon. It was an excessive wait due to poor staffing. A second worker joined the front desk after we had been in line for a bout 2.5 hours and helped speed things up. Aside from the pickup, it would have been nice for the dropoff directions to be made more explicitly clear. We eventually had to just walk to the counter (in spite of the huge line on a Saturday morning) and tell them we were returning keys. A drop box or parking lot attendant (like other rental agencies use) would have made things much easier.

Use this service at your own risk. They canceled my reservation without informing me. I tried to schedule another car and was told no other 12 passenger vans would be available during my vacation stay. My only option with them was to rent multiple 5 passenger vehicles...I declined. We ubered and saved ourselves lots of money. Not only are you unreliable but you're staff is unprofessional, untrained, and condescending. You're the worst!

I had a flight change to a later time weeks in advance. My car rental pickup was 8am. I called the third party vendor to see if I could push back the pick up time because I didn't want to lose the 12 passenger van we had reserved. I was told that there would be no issue because there is a 13 hour window to pick up any vehicle. I was assured there would be no issue. I arrived at Budget at 7pm only to learn not only that my reservation had been canceled but also that I could not make make a new reservation because the largest vehicle they had was a 5 passenger... although there were literally six 12 passengers sitting on their lot. To add insult to injury your representative was the most condescending tool I've ever had the displeasure of speaking with. You need to hire problem solvers rather than those who can simply spew off what they read on their screens. My representative was not brought. I will never use our recommend your services EVER!

Picked up vehicle after waiting over 30 minutes. They try to scare you into every fee possible. Vehicle had chocolate spilled on one door, wrappers and a floss pick under the seat. There was some kind of liquid in the cup holders. When I got to my hotel I noticed they charged me for fuel service despite explicitly declining. When I returned the car the lot attendant noticed I returned it full and said “we have a guy that charges everyone for that”. I then waited in line again for 30 minutes to get my fuel charge taken off.

Rental itself was great, clean, ran great. Great rental.

On pick-up, they said I had booked the wrong location even though my reservation was for the correct location, which I showed them. The person ahead of me in line had the same problem. Also, when I dropped off the rental they tried to charge a weekly rate even though I had spoken with the agent at pick up about converting it back over to a daily rate after the rental was up (which was reflected in my contract). Although a manager corrected the problem after I showed her proof, the initial agent was incompetent and did not know what he was doing. The manager had to show him twice. Also, the parking attendant was rude at drop off until he realized that I was correct. Would probably not use national through kayak again- too much of a hassle when you are traveling!

I like that I got a free upgrade and a reduced rate from the woman working the desk at Myrtle Beach International Airport. I presented her with my paperwork and the airport was the WRONG airport in Myrtle Beach (the private airport - Not MYR which is the airport code for the International Airport). The whole booking had to be cancelled, the insurance had to be cancelled and everything had to be rebooked.

That the airport code for Myrtle Beach (MYR) is the incorrect booking code to get a car rental! Who came up with that idea?!
