Interesting that this also shows that we don't have enough hotels, they are in the wrong location, and they are too expensive.
Seriously. I think this is ultimately good policy but it needs to be paired with increasing our hotel supply. My poor wedding guests got hosed last year visiting from ontario, hotels are easily $600/night in the summer now. This is going to make it much worse.
Even a shitty motel in a small town is $100+ per night.
Want to go somewhere? I'm camping or staying with someone I know, or I cant afford it. No more visiting cities for me.
