I don't think Safeway applies
it would be like your credit card saying your APR is 19% and then on missing a payment, they sock you with a later added 1000 dollars.
1. The fee was not disclosed at booking
2. Marriott/spg cannot prove that the booking party received or read the retroactive fee addition
Safeway 100% applies as precedent. Spg cannot say "you may be charged a fee", not disclose a fee and then arbitrarily charge you. That's illegal and every court has sided with this.
