    Great counter service. The only problem is the 15 dollar a day toll fees. That amount is excessive and there’s no way to just pay as you drive in Dallas or Houston.

    My initial pickup experience was great. However, I had to return the vehicle twice for defect. (First return for minor problem) The first return was very problematic and chaotic and took a long time and car was dirty and sluggish. Customer service was less than stellar. The second return was faster but car did not have CarPlay which was inconvenient. Customer service was adequate. The final return was slow. Unable to checkout at car side with no reason given had to wait in long inside line with pickup passengers. No reason given, but later found i’d been erroneously charged for refuel. Online customer service was great. Sometimes was a long hold but reps were always pleasant and tried to be helpful.

    The car we had booked was not available but we were given a better model which was very good. The only problem I had was that the car had previously suffered some exterior damage and when I asked for a damage report in order to prove that this was not caused by us they were unable/unwilling to provide this.

    I really dislike this company! They did not provide the car at the price I booked online and added several unnecessary insurance charges. Additionally, my reservation included a different drop-off location, and they charged me an extra $150 for a one-way fee. It's totally unreasonable! Even worse, the attendant told me that if I didn't add the insurance, I shouldn't rent the car, and they charged my credit card before letting me sign the contract! I advise all Chinese tourists to avoid renting from this company; they take advantage of Chinese customers!

    Budget is the worst car rental company I have ever encountered. They added an extra $258 without my consent, including a $53 fuel charge. I repeatedly emphasized that I would return the car with a full tank, yet they still charged me $53 for fuel, taking advantage of my poor English as a woman. This place is truly unscrupulous. Additionally, my flight was rescheduled, and they demanded $250 for a 2-hour delay in returning the car. I will never use Budget again!

    No additional upselling, just asked if I needed an upgrade. Overall, the pick-up process was very smooth. However, the Nissan X-Trail given this time wasn't as good as the previous Honda CR-V; the 1.5T three-cylinder engine's performance was quite poor, and the fuel consumption wasn't any better.
