We analyzed reviews on tripadvisor.com from a random sample of N = 477 hotels in ten large cities in the US to examine how well existing policies protect guests from exposure to tobacco, electronic cigarette, and cannabis (TEC) smoke. We examined the association between complaints per 100 reviews with hotel smoking policies, star rating, cost, brand, and location. Of all TEC complaints, 80% were associated with thirdhand smoke residue lingering in hotels from previous guests. Compared to the hotel brands with the best records, the two worst-performing brands had 3.4- and 3.6-times higher complaint rates ( < .001). Hotels with ≤2-star ratings had twice the complaints as higher-rated hotels ( < .001). Compared to 100% smokefree hotels, those offering designated smoking rooms had a 35% higher rate of complaints ( < .05). The success of some hotel brands demonstrates it is feasible to protect guests by fully committing to, implementing, and enforcing 100% smokefree building policies.
我们分析了来自美国十个大城市中随机抽取的N = 477家酒店在tripadvisor.com上的评论，以研究现有政策在多大程度上能保护客人免受烟草、电子烟和大麻（TEC）烟雾的影响。我们研究了每100条评论中的投诉与酒店吸烟政策、星级、成本、品牌和位置之间的关联。在所有TEC投诉中，80%与前住客残留在酒店的三手烟有关。与记录最佳的酒店品牌相比，表现最差的两个品牌的投诉率分别高出3.4倍和3.6倍（P <.001）。星级≤2星的酒店投诉量是高星级酒店的两倍（P <.001）。与100%无烟酒店相比，设有指定吸烟室的酒店投诉率高出35%（P <.05）。一些酒店品牌的成功表明，通过全面致力于、实施和执行100%无烟建筑政策来保护客人是可行的。
