motel Mi Pi CHi — Hotel in Gauteng

I would have given 0 stars

We booked at Mi Pi Chi for 3 nights. Upon arrival we were sent to another property around the corner that was an absolute nightmare. The accommodation were a disaster - old and dirty with just a bath and not even a shower in this day and age.

But the cherry on top was the owner's attitude. When we tried to bring some of these issues to her attention, we were met with a dismissive shrug and a not my problem attitude. When we asked for a refund, she became downright belligerent and refused to refund our money.

The owner wanted to force us to stay in a place that we have not booked, this messy and smelly place was not on the images on booking.com, so this is false advertising. Be careful people!

We had to phone bookings.com and they were kind enough to book us into a different place.

I really appreciated such kind service and a comfortable place to sleep in on such short notice. I really loved my short stay at Motel Mi Pi Chi and I would recommend this to anyone as affordable quality accommodation....

Motel Mi Pi Chi is a charming boutique-style motel that exceeded our expectations! The rooms are not only cute but also spacious and impeccably clean. Being within walking distance of the market and small stores is a bonus. The fully-equipped common area kitchen was a pleasant surprise, and it was spotless. Our room was a highlight, and the staff were exceptionally friendly. On our first night, when we realized we left one of our passports over 7 hours away in our last lodge, a member of their team went above and beyond to explore various options to try and help us retrieve it. Outstanding service and a...
