The keeper of any inn or hotel or of any tourist camp, whether an individual, a partnership, a corporation, or a limited liability company, has a lien on the baggage and other property in and about such inn, hotel, or tourist camp belonging to or under the control of guests or boarders for the proper charges due from such guests for accommodation, board, and lodging, and for all money paid for or advanced to them not to exceed the sum of two hundred dollars, and for such other extras as are furnished at their request.
The innkeeper, hotelkeeper, or tourist camp keeper has the right to detain the baggage and other property until the amount of such charges is paid, and such baggage and other property is exempt from attachment or execution until such innkeeper's lien and the cost of satisfying it are paid.
