The car had quite a few scratches, and we photographed them before we left as we thought we might get charged for them. There was no problem at drop off, and the chap told us the car was reaching the end of its useful life.

Swiss are meticulous in their service and seriousness. At Geneva Airport, there is a dedicated vehicle to take you to the car pick-up parking lot.

Even though we already had full insurance from back home and had a local Chinese speaker who knew some French with us, the front desk still scammed us into buying the car rental company’s full insurance. Very unpleasant experience!

I've rented from BUDGET multiple times. Their attentive service and detailed explanations are very satisfactory. The cars are in excellent condition, and the process of picking up and returning the car is very convenient, as it's just a short walk from the airport. It was a pleasant surprise for us.

Was informed online that I needed to wait two hours to pick up the car. Immediate rentals at the counter were much more expensive, and after waiting, the car options were significantly different.
