You stay overnight at the Flea Bag Motel and your Rolex watch is stolen from your room. You forgot to lock your room while you were out, and it seems likely that the thief entered it that time. There was a conspicuous notice on the door - although you didn't read it - under the Innkeepers Act, limiting its liability for loss or injury to goods to $40. Can you sue the motel for your loss beyond that amount? Why or why not?
A) No. It was your own negligence that caused your loss.
B) No. When you checked in, the motel did not expressly agree to accept responsibility for your personal possessions.
C) Yes. A motel is not an "inn".
D) Yes. The notice required by the Act was not brought to your attention.
E) No. The motel complied with and is protected by the Act.
