At means nearby, I am at a hotel.
In means inside, I am in a hotel.
Here, Time of situation matters.

Yes, put up at hotel should use instead of put up in hotel. As at is the prepositional word and it is used for the proper place.
Eg:- I am in my room.
He is at the hotel room no 7 etc.
Eg:- I am in my room.
He is at the hotel room no 7 etc.

We can't use "in" before hotel it must be at hotel.

I think D is incorrect because when an an article is used before only one noun or thing then verb must be sigular.
Here in the given sentence it is "the boarding and lodging charges" so the D should be "was exorbitant".
