BlockRoom method is used to get the updated prices and cancellation policies for the selected rooms before proceeding with the hotel booking. Block Room will also get the norms, if any.

1. This method should preferably be called before taking guest details from the client, so that in case of any price change a proper intimation can be provided.
2. In case of Price change or Cancellation Policy change, you will get new price and/or new cancellation policy in the BlockRoom response with IsPriceChanged node and/or IsCancellationPolicyChanged node set as true.
3. The price comparison is to be made at the client's end, and BlockRoom request needs to be sent again with the updated price and/ or updated cancellation policy.
