hee hee hee... dead dave.... Marriot hotels can charge £15 a day for internet access because they host a lot of conferences and team-building jaunts and so on where the delegates *MUST* check their emails several times a day. And they say "£15 please" and the people say "that's a rip off!" but eventually pay it anyway. For a real shock, try ordering dinner on room service and asking for some bread and butter with your meal. Last time I stayed in a Marriot I wasn't well at all the final night, and I didn't fancy a full meal, so I asked Steve to order some bread for me when he ordered his meal. Two slices of normal presliced bread. One pat of butter. Almost a fiver. BUT if you chat to the cleaners in the morning and be friendly rather than looking through them like they don't exist, they are more inclined to sneak you extra free biscuits :)
