PygaSchmyga Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Like many other hubbers that were conned by the L'Etape cancellation fiasco (brought to us by those charming folk at OCTAGONSA), we were saddled with the added cost of accommodation that had been paid. Or so I thought. We had booked and paid to stay at 11Karkloof. Their cancellation policy was clear - we did not stand to recover our payment due to the short notice. I inquired anyway, and Quinten (top chap) said he would try to resell our accommodation, and if successful, would refund us. I thought he was just being polite. I received an email from Quinten today, informing me that he HAD resold the 2 chalets which our group had booked, and would refund our full payment. I would never have known if they had resold the bed nights. What a mensch! So as far as I am concerned, I will only book with these guys for stays in the midlands, and strongly urge hubbers to support them. This level of service and integrity deserves to be rewarded. check them out at http://www.11karkloof.co.za/

Which, now that i think about it actually would have been quite brilliant! Blixem!
the nerd Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 Sounds like the kind of place I would definitely want to support! What a result!

Fat Boab Posted March 29, 2017 Posted March 29, 2017 I see what you did there - SIES man! Maybe I am just a really happy rider? dirty( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) True. It's a bit off to spit and snot-rocket in a cavalier manner on the trails.....
