Just updating this one. I booked through Hotelclub. The first booking went through fine. The 2nd was held up for verification/security and never went through. As a result, we had to pay for a posted rate stay at the hotel. Later in the evening, the front desk called and said they found the pay slip so they tore up my partner's credit card preauthorisation slip. I never got billed more than once from Hotelclub and nothing ever made it onto my partner's CC.

The buffet breakfast the first day was good. On the 2nd stay, nothing but bread and jam.
