Beginning July 1, 2024, the California Senate Bill No. 644 requires hotels, third-party booking services, and hosting platforms to allow a reservation for a hotel accommodation or a short-term rental located in California to be cancelled without penalty for at least 24 hours after the reservation is confirmed.*

This applies to reservations made at Californian properties on or after July 1, 2024. This requirement does not apply to properties located outside of California.
