They told me the store was closed even though I had a confirmed reservation. I was forced to cancel the reservation online because they wouldn’t help.

The Budget Rental on 270 Atlantic avenue in Boston does not provide an airport courtesy ride. Customers using this facility must be prepared to ride a cab or Uber to this location. The rental had less than half tank of gas. Most rental companies I have used normally provide a full tank of gas and the vehicle is returned with a full tank.
The car in th booking was not available and after a lot of discussion was offered a luxury car.

I was misled by the person who served me. At first she told me she had no vehicles available. Seeing that I had to drive quite far, he told me that he only had electric vehicles. When I told him that it could not be that, he told me that by paying more he could offer me a gasoline one. That's not how things are done, in the end I paid the extra for the necessity and urgency, but never again.

Bald tires and less than half tank of gas. With snow and ice on the road, we could not wait to turn in this death trap. Poorly maintained and dirty.
