If you asked for "coolant" and they replaced the antifreeze, that's just not at all related. But maybe you needed fresh antifreeze anyway...?
By adding refrigerant to the AC system, you're just postponing the repair. Each time, it will leak out a bit faster than before, so eventually you WILL HAVE TO find the leak & fix it. I'm guessing they looked at the components that were visible, without dismantling the dashboard.
Finally, just adding refrigerant is not good. It could be overcharged, or there could be some other problem. A mechanic who knows AC systems should diagnose it.
