However, the hotel is now asking us for an extra surcharge of 5400 yen per night for each adult bed (specified for additional adult beds) despite having already paid spg points to confirm into a room that already accommodates 4 adults. Am I wrong to assume no surcharge should be applied in this situation since the hotel already emailed and confirmed me into the Family 4 room?
Total room occupancy limits and whether or not more than two adults should be charged are kind of two different things. Most properties charge extra for more than two adults, even though the room may allow 3 - 4 adults to stay in the room.
