Well, out of curiosity, I've booked one for next week in London. The
remote to operate the "large screen" TV in the room is apparently £5.

How much did you pay, looking for a month away it appears to be about
45 quid a night?

As a comparison I booked a Zone 5 travellodge 10 days away for 26 quid
and 6 weeks away for 10 quid, sure it's zone 5, but that's only 30
minutes and a travel card from waterloo and car-parking is free. You
also get a TV, coffee stuff, and a sofa...
