KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Burlingame

  • You will enjoy greater convenience and flexibility if you choose to use Burlingame car rentals any time you are in the city for a vacation or business trip. With your rented car, you can choose your own departure times and the convenient routes to follow, unlike public buses, which operate on fixed departure schedules and routes. You can visit Washington Park with your rented car and have some good outdoor time. The car allows you to move around with your personal belongings more conveniently.
  • Car rentals in Burlingame give visitors landing at San Francisco International Airport an opportunity to enjoy self-drive to the city center and any other destinations of their choice. All the major Burlingame car rentals, including Thrifty, Dollar, and Enterprise, have their desks at the airport's car rental facility located at 780 N McDonnell Road.
  • When you are driving your car from any of the car rentals in Burlingame, you need to remember two important things. First, most of the drivers in the city are only concerned with the car in front of them and don't care much about the car behind them. Drivers can commonly change lanes and make turns without indicating. You have the responsibility of keeping a safe distance from the car in front of you. Second, most of the roads in downtown Burlingame have a high number of cyclists, especially in the mornings and evenings. It is good to maintain a lower speed and remain vigilant always to avoid hitting any of them.
  • The convenience of using car rentals in Burlingame tends to decline during the morning and evening rush hours. You will experience difficulties driving your car on most of the roads in the city between 7 am and 9 am and later between 5 pm and 7 pm. During this period, most of the roads experienced heavy traffic, with the most affected one being Malcolm Road. It will be good for you to avoid this road and use alternative routes to your destination.
  • Book your rental car in Burlingame at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Intermediate rental cars in Burlingame are around 56% cheaper than other car types, on average

When traveling with four or five other individuals, compact and intermediate SUVs are appropriate. These vehicles have doors that can fit a sizable number of people. Additionally, they have ample room in their suitcase for additional luggage. If you plan to travel to off-road locations, intermediate SUVs are a wise choice. An economical automobile, which can fit up to two individuals, may be a wonderful alternative for you if you are traveling alone or perhaps with your significant other.

  • What's the speed limit in Burlingame?

    Away from the city center, school zones and residential areas, the speed limit on Burlingame highways is 35 mph unless otherwise posted. However, there is a 25 mph speed limit that must be followed when driving your car on any route in a residential area. Every street in the heart of the city and every road close to a school have the same speed limit. Speed cameras are used in Burlingame to lessen the number of instances where motorists break the speed limit.

  • Where are the best places to park in Burlingame?

    For all drivers in the city, public parking garages provide the most dependable parking services at all times. Consider parking your vehicle in Public Pay Parking-Lot S, which is located at 1106 Rhinette Ave, or Highland Parking Garage, a parking lot located at 161 Highland Avenue. You can also consider hotel parking as an option for parking if you are staying in one of the hotels in the city. In Burlingame, parking lots are accessible freely to guests in almost every city hotel. However, people who are staying at the hotels are the only ones who have access to this parking option.

Cons:

The only downside was waiting 30 minutes for the shuttle to take you off site to office. It added additional time on trip, but overall they were very efficient and friendly.

For the most part it was good. They wasn’t at the airport which I was lead to believe they was. Then after I got home I got a phone call saying they got the key fob but they don’t have a key! I was never given a key the car is a push button start. Never seen a key nor used a key so now I have to call and talk to them tomorrow.

Waited over an hour for the airport shuttle because this company is an off airport site. The person answering the phone was rude and hug up on us twice. Shuttle never came so we had to deal with the headache of trying to get a refund and find another car. Have yourself the trouble and choose another company.

Staff was friendly, However: - I was charges and additional $135.00 in compulsory insurances which was more than the actual hire price. I could’ve rented much cheaper at the airport rental with any major company had I known this. - at after hour drop-off the offices were closed so i had to abandon the car and hide the keys nearby. I tried several phone numbers but nobody answered. Fortunately, the car was still there next morning and I was refunded the deposit $200 without any problems. Definitely would recommend going elswhere for a hire.
