Read Del's blog. Blogs.NHRA.com - NHRA Driver Blogs It's quite humorous. They got booted from their hotel (there is a huge Jehovah's Witness Convention in Reading this week)

Well, they really did not have to leave their hotel. Once you are checked in., a hotel cannot legally kick you out without going to court for eviction proceedings. All they can do is charge you the highest posted rate for the room.

When you check in you put down a check out date, so you have to leave on the date you say that you are staying through don't you?

Nope...In most states, once you are in the room they can't throw you out without a court order. The most they can do is charge you the maximum rate they have posted for the extra days.

Of course, they don't tell you that when you check in but if you tell them you are staying, there is not much they can do.

Re: What to do?

Makes for a better story saying they were kicked out.

What about the person coming in with the confirmed reservation?? Squatters rights?? I don't think so. You may end up getting arrested (tresspassing) if you don't vacate...I don't know.
