Both adorable and naive.

Those fees are a major revenue source and people tend to overrate their value as customers. Worse yet, even if the fees are eliminated, it is not as though total room cost is going to drop. What most people here would argue for is that the advertised room rate include all mandatory property-imposed fees so that the sort function on various websites is not tricked.

Neither Congress nor the FTC are willing to take this on. So, it is dead as an issue.
