This is similar to what's been happening in Ellensburg. The hotel management refuses to enforce or even notify the ICE owners. The biggest problems is that the most courteous ICE drivers arrive first, see the signs, and park away from the SC stalls. The parking lot fills up, leaving on the SC stalls open (at midnight for example), then the late arrivals block the SC stalls because there is no where else to park. Then, worst of all, those folks don't wake up or move their vehicle until very late AM, sometimes NOON, essentially blocking the SC stalls during the most important travel times. Unfortunately, I don't think anybody is happy about it (Tesla, Hotel, EV drivers or the bleary-eyed ICE driver). High speed DC fast charging should not be placed at hotels, especially those types that can be easily blocked. I would suggest that Tesla should only install pull-in stanchions at hotels (at least you can pull in alongside, blocking the offending ICE vehicle, and charge in an emergency). Furthermore, they should install several HPWC at hotels instead (we've even seen Tesla drivers park overnight in the SC stall).
