Pros:
Drop-off was easy and super low-key. No hassle pick-up. Car was in good condition. Reasonable price.Cons:
Drop-off was intended for Labor Day (Sept 2) but the location (and every other location) was closed. I wasn't aware that I'd be unable to return the vehicle, and have yet to find out if Budget is going to charge us for the extra day despite no heads-up and no alternative drop-off options.8,0 Very Good
