Answer to Question 1

A hotelkeeper is in the business of providing living accommodations to transient persons called guests. The hotelkeeper has a bailee's liability regarding property that may be entrusted into the hotelkeeper's care. At common law, the hotelkeeper was an insurer of any other property that a guest might bring into the hotel. The common law now is subject to state liability limitations.
Bob Brown entered the hotel to attend a conference and therefore is not a guest. There is no relationship between the hotel and Brown.
Sam Smith is a guest, for he is a transient utilizing the services of the hotel proper. The guest relationship was created at the time of registration.
Sally Jones is not a guest but is rather a boarder or lodger because of her semi-permanent residence at the hotel. A lodger is owed a duty of an ordinary bailee of personal property under a mutual-benefit bailment.
