The hotel and you have an agreement: They provide a certain service, you agree to pay x amount of money and abide by certain rules.
If you decide to smoke in your room, you are violating the terms of the contract you agreed to. The fact that you knew beforehand how much the other party would charge you in damages, did in no way give you permission to smoke.
Sorry Mr U Bob, but I still respectfully disagree... Murder is murder and property damage is property damage... And they are not really the same thing...

All I am saying is that if they say 'You smoke? Its $150" Then why not proactively take them up on the offer?

Remember, I DIDNT smoke myself in the hotel room in London, because I RESPECTED the fact that the next guest may be a non smoker... But I cant help thinking that if I had paid the £150 'surcharge'? They could have cleaned the room, made something extra for themselves, and I could have enjoyed a ciggy, while on vacation...

Thats all
