LOL - it was not my intention to embarrass you. In any case, you did not write the story! Perhaps too, 'accommodations' is correct - it is just that having been born in southern England and having lived there for many years I have never heard anyone British using it with an 's'. (You may have noticed that I specified the *south* of England; that was my perhaps not so subtle way of being a snob, as we Southern English fondly imagine that our version of English is the correct and more upper crust version. LOL).
Perhaps 'accommodations' is similar to the word 'gotten' which although historically correct is now archaic in the UK.
Another two words that many Americans, but not all of them I hasten to add, add 's' to are 'way' and 'anyway'. However I understand from several sites on the net that that is not considered correct in American English either.
Those four; accommodations, gotten, ways and anyways - plus anyone eating pancakes or waffles for breakfast, usually scream 'American!' Which of course is fine if the fic is set in the States or the speaker is American or heavily influenced by American speech but not so fine if the characters are supposed to be British.

BTW eating pancakes (but not waffles) for *breakfast* in the UK is traditional on one day only; on Shrove Tuesday (i.e. "Pancake Day" ) However I have been away from Enland for several years so perhaps the habit of eating pancakes or waffles for breakfast on ordinary days has become popular since I left.

Even 'accommodations' and 'anyways' are better, far far better, than characters eating Black Pudding with a spoon as I came across in the story I read immediately prior to reading your recommended story. As you probably know, Black Pudding is a type of sausage, so eating it with a spoon as if it were really a pudding would be difficult if not impossible. Unfortunately too, in that story Harry Potter had it with custard. I was eating my lunch at the time and the image of that did not benefit my digestion much at all.LOL.
