“@makemytrip & @oyorooms scam alert in Bengaluru. Just came here to find that the hotel I had booked is under renovation. There was not a living soul here. This is tantamount to cheating! After wasting two hours here, they cut money from my refund. Shame on you!” wrote Chansikar as he shared the post.
He also added snapshots of his booking receipt. One of the snapshots shows that the man booked an OYO room with MakeMyTrip. Another picture shows the hotel that is still under construction.
