Yep. Make them prove it.
In a more general sense, could it be argued that vaporizing is not 'smoking' as there is no combustion involved? They could be seen as distinct modes of ingestion, especially from a medical point of view.
I've burned incense in non smoking hotel rooms (even a clean hotel room still smells like a hotel room :wtf: ) Is burning incense 'smoking'? To me the phrase implies consumption of a plant.

I agree with the dispute it with your credit card company. all you have to do is deny it. let them go to small claims court with you, it is a civil matter, by denying the charge you are calling it fraud, let them get you into court, i.e. not going to happen and claim damage, breach of contract, i.e. your short term rental agreement....good luck, let us know

Are you people crazy or just crazy unethical? DryEye voluntarily agreed to abide their services contract which included the smoking fee. What possible defense could he have against paying the charge he both agreed to when he rented the room, and admits to incurring?? Just because you CAN steal, doesn't make it right.

It's certainly what you're advocating:

as dryeye's fantasy attorney, I am not advocating stealing, only allowing the 4 star hotel to prove their real damages in a court of law. the small claims court system is the venue for this issue to have a full and adequate hearing of the facts. I feel after years of court hours that smoking is tobacco related. the hotel is at fault for not specifically mentioning marijuana as smoking in their contract. the 200 dollars is not in line with breach. he should deny it, call the corporate office and offer them 50 dollars. as a matter of fact, i would advise he deny the charge and send them a check for 50 dollars with notation in the checks item box on the lower left of the check.."settlement for smoking" with the date of the smoking...if they cash it,its a done deal.....
BTW 5280and420, you have been removed from my christmas card list...sorry

Recall, some months ago the thread on rentals and growers. The same legal principles apply here. You can smoke pot in Colorado, but not in your landlord's living room without his permission. Pay your fine and next time ask for a smoking room if you plan to smoke at the hotel. Most hotels have a few rooms they set aside for guests who smoke.

I agree. Don't think they have a problem with you medicating just your choice of delivery. Portable vaporizer or tincture would fix the problem. Or specifically ask for a Smoking room. I've stayed at hotels all over the place, and those that charge for smoking in a non-smoking room usually have all the proper signage so that charge is plain and clear. Honestly you could of easily called down to the Front Desk as asked for a room change or one with a balcony. Sorry for the charge but I think it's going to be one of those "live & learn" lessons.
Of course you could deny the charge and ask for them to prove it, but it also sounds as if you may have already admitted to smoking (regards of what you were smoking).

v.tr.
1. To take (the property of another) without right or permission.
Once again, who is the one stealing?
BTW, how many screen names do you have?
