The clearance was proper. Your GPS substitutes for an ADF in all
situations other than an NDB approach with no GPS overlay.

Correct, and the hold issued is only published on the NDB approach that
has no overlay. The two GPS approaches are distinct from the NDB 1.

Hopefully that would have tipped you that the hold was depicted on the
NDB approach chart, and all would have been well.

Why would he look at the NDB chart when he was:

1. Not equipped to fly it.
2. Cleared for the GPS approach he was equipped to fly?
