Check-in process lets the hotel down - again

Excellent, modern facilities, clean & realsonably close to T4. Not a pleasant walk as still under construction & poorly sign-posted. Restaurant is nice with a great supervisor to facilitate food options when kitchen staff unable/unwilling to assist. Check-in & check-out really lets the hotel down though. They still have the ridiculous self check-in booths so the queues to speak to an actual person often meander out the door. Staff are also unfriendly at times, like the guy when we were checking out this morning. There are just not enough of them so I imagine they're under pressure.

Very close to airport and easy to walk to. But at check in we were not informed of the amenities so we didn't know about the gym and sauna. We had to ask about these later in a separate trip to the front desk. We had to go to the front desk because the phone in our room was not working. Also the remote control for the TV was not tas well.

We requested and paid for a room upgrade on arrival. At checkout, we were advised that no further payment was required. However, later that same day, I noticed an additional charge on our credit card for the room upgrade. This means we have been charged twice for the same service. This is a serious error and a clear misuse of credit card management by this establishment. I find it very concerning that such a mistake could occur.
