Ref the sign Frankie.... can you come up with a good reason why a pregnant woman SHOULD NOT be warned that cigarette smoke (or anything else) might damage her unborn child?
It's very easy to take the p*** out of these sort of warnings, but looking back at the silicosis, asbestosis. "phossy jaw", lead and mercury poisoning sufferers of the past couple of hundred years, it isn't really that funny!

I think the point being made by Funtimefrankie is valid.
Looking back at silicosis, asbestosis, etc. the risks were unknown and, when discovered, then hidden by industry.
The risks of passive smoking are well known and well publicised. Labeling a hotel does seem 'over the top'. I assume from the wording that this may be a legally required notice in California.
Sorry, but if we follow the same logic, all supermarkets and restaurants should also carry a warning.
