Well, that might be the policy of that place. But different places will have
different policies. I dis agree I don't think he has a case. They did not
refuse him to let his dog stay They just charge a service charge for the dog
not because he was taking up a space but for more than likely the extra
cleanup and inconvenient they had. This is my thoughts. Oh by the way I have
a service dog also. I myself would not think anything about the extra money
if they told me it will cost extra and the amount. Again my thoughts.

I use to work at the Marriott, and the polocy was exactly that.  They can't
charge you for your service animal, unless something happens.  If they are
doing this, you may have a case to make an issue.  To me that is extortion,
because this is tarting to happen in even cabs. In the miami aria, and even
in some eating astablishments.

Subject: Question & answer about motel and service dogs

A friend of mine who does training at Hilton Hotels tells me that it is
illegal to charge extra for a service dog staying in a hotel?  I have been
charged extra for my dog as we travel at motels by about 15 dollars a room
for the dog.  There is no problem with getting her in the room - but my
friend said that they can only charge if the dog does something in the room
then that is fine.  Their policy for pets staying in the room is $15 a night
extra.  This was new to me and I told her I could not recall reading
anything about this under title II.

Could you clarify this for me?
Thanks

Answer:
Hotels are covered by title III, not title II. (Places of public
accommodation - title III vs. programs and services of state or local
governments (title II).

The issue you raise concerns an unlawful surcharge.

See http://www.ada.gov/qasrvc.htm , question 7:

7. Q: Can I charge a maintenance or cleaning fee for customers who bring
service animals into my business?

A: No. Neither a deposit nor a surcharge may be imposed on an individual
with a disability as a condition to allowing a service animal to accompany
the individual with a disability, even if deposits are routinely required
for pets. However, a public accommodation may charge its customers with
disabilities if a service animal causes damage so long as it is the regular
practice of the entity to charge non-disabled customers for the same types
of damages. For example, a hotel can charge a guest with a disability for
the cost of repairing or cleaning furniture damaged by a service animal if
it is the hotel's policy to charge when non-disabled guests cause such
damage.
