That would be the State of Florida.
Some landlords claim they include the hotel tax in the rent so their renters don't see it. Some landlords who do this may actually pay the tax they owe, but who knows?
If you ask Florida what they think, they'll tell you that if it's a rental less than 6 months, the tax must be paid, and you must register to pay the tax before you collect it. The only thing that's unclear is whether it's legal to pretend to the renter that there is no tax that must be paid.
