SB354 aims to protect consumers by prohibiting undisclosed fees on transient accommodations and requiring full fee disclosure.
SB354 addresses deceptive trade practices by targeting "junk fees" on transient accommodations and resort time shares. The bill prohibits charging fees not disclosed before purchase, mandates clear fee disclosure in advertisements, and requires displaying taxes and fees as both a percentage and dollar amount. This legislation seeks to prevent "drip pricing," where consumers are misled about the total cost of their accommodations, and aims to create a more transparent and fair marketplace for consumers.
