Highway One

Very satisfied

Long queue time. The original Ford wasn't available at pickup, so I paid an extra $4 for a Nissan. They also tried to upsell insurance. Due to language barriers, I ended up purchasing an additional $16 insurance policy, although I had already bought one. I never received the insurance document and couldn’t understand much of it.

Budget rental was really impressive! First, at pick-up: They initially didn't have the Tahoe model we booked, so they provided another SUV of the same class. When we saw a Tahoe in the garage, we asked the staff and they patiently helped us switch to the preferred model. During the rental period: Unfortunately, our car window was broken in San Francisco (no items were lost). We immediately contacted Budget customer service, and within 10 minutes they helped us with the registration and guided us on how to switch cars. That evening, we went to San Francisco airport and exchanged for another Tahoe. The process was quick and convenient. Since the insurance covered everything, there were no extra costs.

The queue was longer than at AVIS next door

I booked a compact car, specified 4 doors. At the store, they said they only have 2-door ones. Had no choice but to pay an extra amount daily for a mid-size car, and I couldn't choose, only got an old model Jetta. The insurance was supposedly included at the time of booking. The clerk told me it only covers when others hit you, but not when you hit others.
