1) Sarah Williams, travelling for business, stopped at hotel in the early evening planning to stay overnight. Ms. Williams had stayed at this hotel in the past. During her last stay, she presented a stolen credit card to the front desk for payment. Only after Ms. Williams checked out and the credit card company refused payment, did the hotel realize that the credit card was not Ms. Williams. So, when Ms. Williams presented herself to the front desk to check in during the current business trip, the clerk at the front desk refused to provide her overnight accommodations. Ms. Williams was furious and intends to sue. Her suit will likely:

a. Succeed because hotels cannot refuse accommodations to a potential guest for any reason.

b. Fail because hotels have unlimited rights under the law to refuse accommodations to potential guests.

c. Succeed because a hotel cannot refuse a guest when they are checking in at night.

d. Fail because hotels have a limited right to refuse guests who have previously defrauded them.

2). Sean, a 35-year-old Black man, stopped at hotel in Spokane, Washington looking for a room. The sign on the hotel marquis read: Vacancy. When he inquired at the front desk, however, he was told by the clerk that the hotel was full. In the parking lot, he bumped into a Caucasian family unloading their luggage for a stay in the hotel. Sean advised them that the hotel had no vacancies. The family disagreed, with one member stating, "We just came from the front desk and the clerk told us there was plenty of room." If Sean were to file a discrimination claim, original jurisdiction to hear his claim would rest with:

	a.	The Washington State Human Rights Commission, a Washington state court, the Federal District Court for the District of Washington.
	b.	The Washington State Attorney General's Office, a discrimination court, an administrative law judge in the Washington Department of Health and Human Services.
	c.	The Supreme Court of the United States.
	d.	The Washington Consumer Protection Division or the Washington State Hospitality Board.

3.) Leteisha McCarthy had a confirmed two-night reservation at the Oracle Hotel in Boston, Massachusetts. The nightly rate for Oracle was $175.00. Unfortunately, when Ms. McCarthy arrived at the front desk to check-in, the hotel explained that it did not have a room available. Multiple guests in a block of rooms had decided to add another night to their stay. The hotel did not offer Ms. McCarthy an alternative and the only available accommodations she was able to find were at a nearby hotel called the Oasis, which had a nightly rate of $300.00. Having no other options, Ms. McCarthy registered for a two-night stay at the Oasis and spent $35.00 on a cab ride to get there. When she arrived home, Ms. McCarthy sent a demand letter to the Oracle Hotel insisting that she be reimbursed for the full cost of her two-night stay at Oasis, plus cab fare. Under the law, Ms. McCarthy should be able to collect:

	a.	$630.00, the full cost of two nights at Oasis plus cab fare.
	b.	$600.00, the full cost of two nights at Oasis as Ms. McCarthy is not entitled to cab fare.
	c.	$380.00, the full cost of two nights at Oracle, plus cab fare.
	d.	$285.00, the difference between the cost at Oasis minus the cost at Oracle, plus cab fare.
