In a press release issued by the U.S. Department of Justice, it was announced that agreements had been reached with 27 hotels in Southern California following investigations into their accessibility and ADA compliance.
According to the press release, hotels agreed to remedy ADA violations pertaining to the accessibility of hotel rooms, while others “also agreed to relief that includes adding additional accessible rooms and communication features for persons with disabilities, ensuring that booking websites provide sufficient information about accessible features, and the payment of civil penalties.” A number of the properties, which had been found to be charging more for accessible guest rooms, agreed to halt the practice.
