Never using Oyo again based on the experience in Pushkar. I chose palette serene Aravali based on the rate I got on your app & the ratings. Got there after a long cab ride from Ajmer station as the driver & people along had no clue of this resort. Got there at 10 pm - to this deserted place in the middle of nowhere with no transport in sight. Loud music blazing in the background quite contrary to the "serene". Only to be shocked that the hotel "rejects" my booking due to the low rate of the Oyo accepted booking. Ofcourse being stranded there I was forced to pay the high rate as demanded by the hotel. Very disappointing & frustrating as Oyo put their hands up towards being professional & honouring their end of the deal. The hotel claimed that Oyo was I informed while they in turn didn''t inform me of the cancellation. This is purely a scam & system that is soon to fail luring customers at low rates to unknown hotels & then force then to pay high rates when they''re left with no option. Do not trust OYO
