But I don't think 'this kind of room' is actually wrong. I would say ‘this type of room’ because ‘Deluxe room with balcony’ is a precisely defined category of room.

But unlike infectious viruses and bacteria, prions are not cellular organisms. Prions are proteins that normally perform a beneficial function in animal tissue; but they can become abnormally shaped, leading to illness. According to the US Food and Drug Administration - http://www.fda.gov/Food/FoodSafety/FoodborneIllness/FoodborneIllnessFoodbornePathogensNaturalToxins/BadBugBook/ucm071397.htm - abnormal prions can be infectious when consumed by other animals. Prions are thought to be absorbed into the body during digestion where they begin the process of changing their normal protein counterparts into abnormal proteins; however infectious prions from one species of animal have less of a potential of causing the abnormal shape in the normally shaped prion proteins of another species (the "species barrier").
