Charged double payment

The Hotel itself was good but the service was not. Breakfast disappointing. Major issue was that they required us to pay in full upon arrival even though we had booked and pre-paid in full. So we had to pay twice! Contacted hotels.com who promptly resolved the issue and reimbursed our payment through them. No explanation or excuse from Hotel. Hotels.com - 10/10 Risør Hotel 1/10
