Apple Pay refunded me but I didn’t request a refund

I paid with Apple Pay on the weekend for a hotel stay it went straight into my pending transaction on my banking app on 24th August and when I’ve checked my bank today and checked my apple wallet it says refunded when I didn’t request the refund as I paid soon as I checked in

what does this mean ?

Hotels place a hold or a preauthorized charge when reserved and if you paid at the Hotel, that hold will be removed. If you did not pay at the Hotel, then the pending transactions would change to the actual charge.
