The very worst was the car that was absolutely INFESTED with cockroaches that we picked up on Kauai. Budget should have at least indicated some problem when I returned the car, but the attendant saw inside and outside of car and told me all was fine. At the international terminal rental car services have been temporarily relocated at the rental car pick up zone, please exit via door 8 and follow the signs.
