A bill to amend 1913 PA 188, entitled “An act relating to the conduct of hotels, inns and public lodging houses,” (MCL 427.1 to 427.15) by adding section 3a.
House Bill 4903 would amend 1913 PA 188, which regulates hotels, to require hotels to notify customers regarding fees for smoking in a hotel room and, if requested, to inspect a room before a customer checks out of it to determine whether any smoking fees will be assessed. Specifically, the owner, manager, agent, or individual in charge of a hotel in Michigan could not rent or lease a room there unless they have done all of the following: • Given the person renting the room a written schedule of the fees charged for smoking in a room in the hotel. • Verbally instructed the person to review and sign the fee schedule. • Left a copy of the fee schedule in a conspicuous area in every room at the hotel. • Posted a copy of the fee schedule in a conspicuous place at the hotel.
