So for the hotels...admittedly my debit card was only refused(even with visa logo) around ten years ago...apparently now the standard is not refusal but instead placing a hold on the cash including incidentals etc so you can't stiff them. I never tried it again after one didn't take it.

Yeah my daughter stayed at a fancy hotel in downtown Dallas a few weeks ago and they charged her debit card forty dollars over the cost. She uses her debit card as credit so once it posts the original price is deducted and the extra is not charged. She loves exploring these fancy hotels.
