No TD, because they have an undoubted 'legitimate interest' in making sure patrons don't smoke in rooms. Beavis certainly applies.PRIVATE 'PCN'? DON'T PAY BUT DON'T IGNORE IT (except N.Ireland).

Years ago after a hotel room 'party', I had £100 taken from my pre authorised card.
I wrote and asked for the receipt showing their breakdown of costs. I argued not a gpeol.
They just refunded.Chin up.0 -

Especially as I might be the next resident of the room! Bleugh, everything stinking of Woodbines!Please note, we are not a legal advice forum. I personally don't get involved in critiquing court case Defences/Witness Statements, so unable to help on that front. Please don't ask. .
I provide only my personal opinion, it is not a legal opinion, it is simply a personal one. I am not a lawyer.

It's legitimate as it's not a penalty but will be a GPEOL for the cost of deep cleaning & losses from not being able to rent out the room until the smell has cleared. The burden of proof would be rather high though as it would need proof of fag ends in the waste bin or ash on the carpet or the smoke detector being triggered before any claim would stand up.The next time you book into a hotel, check the term about smoking in a room. Current rate at Holiday Inn is £100 to clean it.
Surely this is an unfair term in a consumer contract.0
