Thank you for bringing this billing error to our attention. Upon review, it seems that charges which you had already pre-paid were mistakenly routed to the incidental folio instead of the room and tax folio. We have corrected this error and issued a refund to your card. We are very sorry for the error and any inconvenience it may have caused.
