I booked online on booking.com , I went to the Lodge around 19:30 to check in, when I got there they told me that the place is fully booked, the kind of room I booked (Private) had no space.
I had to Cancel, and…
MongeziSouth AfricaIt was so bad, we did not stay. It is a backpacker, but brands not as such .
The room looked like it had been recently used and not fresh. False advertising.
PalesaSouth AfricaNothing when I got there they said the rooms are full and chased me out after I’ve already paid , they haven’t even refunded me
