About This Book

The volume offers a practical, often humorous, exposition of the rights and duties of innkeepers, hotel proprietors, boarding-house keepers, and their guests, combining legal citations, case summaries, and anecdotal observation. Chapters treat distinctions between inns and hotels, lodging and baggage liability, safes, fire, theft, pests, horses and stables, liens, and procedures for notice to quit and turning out. Advice on accommodations, manners, wagering, and furnished apartments is interwoven with statutes and reported cases to illustrate responsibilities and liabilities. The tone alternates between legal analysis and light commentary intended to inform both hosts and travelers about common conflicts and precautions.
