hotel’s parking lot which is damaged or stolen.

her that the hotel is not liable for any items missing or stolen from the room. All 

valuables were to be taken by guests when leaving the room..

Michelle left her genuine pearls in the room and went to dinner. Upon her return 

to the room her pearl set was gone. The hotel was informed by Michelle of the 

theft, however they denied liability based on the sign in her room. Michelle 

decided to leave the hotel and was quite outraged when she went to the car park
