The same thing happened to me on a recent stay at the IC in GVA. When pressed for reassurance that I wouldn't be charged for what I'd consumed from the minibar, the agent revealed that the reason she wanted to know what I'd consumed was for the hotel's own internal audit purposes. I too couldn't quite remember what I'd helped myself to , but I didn't clear out the entire minibar so was spared that .
Anyway, the Bucharest IC has clearly improved since I was there 2 years ago. At that time, there was no Club lounge and the staff were much less keen (a double-edged sword in your case).
