Budget doesn't really have a counter at the airport, we had to do all documents / deposit payment outside at the parking lot, which was very unusual. However it was all good at the end. The car was also OK.
I rented a Toyota, but Budget gave me a terrible Baic. The acceleration was bad, and the brakes were terrible. When I returned the car, there was no one in the store, and I had to wait for 40 minutes. Extremely bad service! I will never use Budget again!

About Budget:8.0/10
There were couple of issues with Budget:
1) bigger but extremely slow car, low quality compared to what I have reserver: I have reserved a Toyota Yaris and I have received a Chinese car (BAIC). Even if it was bigger, it was not a very good experience. The car was extremely extremely slow uphil (and driving throurgh Petra hills I thought at some point the engine will die even if I was pressing the acceleration pedal to its maximum).
2) car didn't have full tank: Due to a previous experience when I got charged 63 euro for not bringing the car with full tank (took one car with 1/8 of the fuel, deluvered it with a bit more according to pictures and got charged) I'm not taking any car which has less then full. Here, at Budget Aqaba La Costa, tgey offered me a car again with 1/8. After more then 30 min of discussion someone from Budget came with me outside of the city to add a full tank of petrol.
3) I got instructed to put the wrong fuel: On the car it was written that I need Unleaded 92(benzin) but on the rental contract they wrote unleaded 95. In Jordan, in all petrol station I've seen, they sell only unleaded 90(~0,75 JOD/liter) and unleaded 95(1 JOD/LITER). Since in my country we don't even use 92 or 90, I didn't know it's not that bad to tank with 90 instead of 95 so I paid always more based on wrong instructions from car company. Of course they didn't refund any difference even if they have confirmed 90 would have been fine as well.
4) there were some big scratches on tge car. It took several minutes to convince them to mark it.
5) one very good aspect: initially we had reservation on easyrentcars.com with pick-up and drop off at 8 am. Due to huge rain, we decided less then 24h in advance to change the pickup and dropoff for 3 pm. Since it was pess then 24 h, we couldn't change online but an agent from online chat of easyrentcars contacted Budget and then he/she offered the direct number from Budget and Budget agreed for later pickup and dropoff, great advantage.
