odd policiesunexpected charge

The staff was fine, but some policies seemed a bit off for a hotel of this supposed caliber. I didn't get complimentary water because I booked through a certain website.. how odd. there was an unexpected charge of €6 for room service, supposedly normal here, I am told. It seems strange to me.. Finally, I had to pay the full amount upfront, yet they wanted cash for room service and other extras.
