Bad experience. The full amount for the room and breakfast was paid in advance. They blocked on my card, saying it would be released within 24 hours after check-out, but this has not happened. The money was blocked for a week
Moreover, the receptionist wrote down all my debit card details when I gave her the card to pay the city tax, before I realized they already had a payment system linked to the booking. So now they had blocked money on one card and all the details of another card, including the expiry date and CVC code.
I was not able to block the card because I was traveling and need it for my expenses, but I was worried that the receptionist or someone else could use my card details for online shopping
