I got to Regina, Saskatchewan having reserved a Ford F-150 truck for a week and Budget did NOT have an available truck for me. I was able to get a truck from Hertz at the Regina airport. I will NOT trust KAYAK in future when renting. Thank you.Reviewed Oct 24 2025

Experience was fine. Car smelled like black and milds a bit, some windows switches were broken, and it ran poorly (ticking noise from the engine); however, it got me from A to B for a very fair price! Not mad whatsoever. Would do it again.Reviewed Oct 23 2025

There was only 1 agent at the desk and he was representing 3 to 4 different brands. It’s a painfully long line. Why can’t I walk up to my car like National ? If you rent from Budget, you will be late to your next appointment.Reviewed Oct 23 2025
