When I searched, the price was displayed in Canadian dollars, but when I completed the booking, it was processed in U.S. dollars. In addition, the room had a noticeable smell of smoke.Reviewed 13 Jul 2026

Budget makes it unnecessarily hard for young people to rent a vehicle. If you’re under 25 not only do you have to pay much more, you also have to purchase your own third party insurance, and the staff will wait until after you’ve done so to inform you you can only pay with a credit card, and it has to be under your name. Very frustrated with the lack of information provided online/in advance about all of these conditions.Reviewed 22 Jul 2024
