[Tutor] Codeacademy Problem

[Joseph Parkton]

Yupp I totally agree on the errors. I finally had to change the

    def hotel_cost(nights):
        nights = nights * 140
        return nights

to

    def hotel_cost(nights):
    return hotel_cost(nights) * 140

for it to work. Strange errors but decent exercises for beginners.
