Never again...

Checked out of Marriott in Köln, Germany. Was offered to pay in KRW on my Korean CC. Desk clerk says: "It is more favorable to you". I was sceptical but thought that I would give it a try.

Rate was the worst on the whole trip and I was charged with foreign transaction fee from my bank anyway.

Always local currency from now on.
