Acceptable Stay, Several Issues

late room payment error
My stay wasn't perfect. The room wasn't ready until almost an hour after the promised time, frustrating after a long journey. There was also a mix-up with another guest. The staff brought the wrong luggage to the wrong room. the final payment was charged twice to my credit card (i now have to solve that problem).
