(10) Addressing first the question of subject, it is well established that the Unruh Civil Rights Act was enacted to protect the personal right of all persons in California to equality of access to goods and services furnished by business enterprises in this state. The act was thus intended to prohibit business from engaging in arbitrary discrimination. (Marina Point, Ltd. v. Wolfson, supra, 30 Cal.3d 721, 730-732; In re Cox, supra, 3 Cal.3d 205, 216; see also, O'Connor v. Village Green Owners Assn., supra, 33 Cal.3d 790, 793-794.) In this regard, the Unruh Civil Rights Act has been held to prohibit apartment-house landlords (Marina Point, Ltd. v. Wolfson, supra; Hubert v. Williams, supra, 133 Cal. App.3d Supp. 1) and condominium associations from arbitrarily refusing to rent to families with children. (O'Connor v. Village Green Owners Assn., supra, 33 Cal.3d 790.)
