    Car hadn't been cleaned inside, but we were in a rush with 2 kids desperate for bed so had to take it. Be careful with Budget's charges after return - twice they have tried to charge for fuel and after back-and-forth showing receipts they refund it.

    Waited in line for over two hours when they made an announcement that they didn't have any more cars! Very frustrating. We were lucky that we had a friend who could pick us up but others were well and truly stuck. We had to go back to the airport the next day and waited in line for an hour and a half and finally got a car.
