For example, the libertarian position is to support the right of a motel owner to refuse to rent to sodomites.

Nope. That is a CONSERVATIVE position. A lib would argue there is no need for a law for or against enforcing a motel owner to rent to sodomites.
In fact - if a state passes laws that require renting to sodomites - the lib places greater value on that law over his own personal convictions.
Can you offer any reason for anyone to believe your counterintuitive claim?
It’s the libertarian position to let the private owner of the business do what he or she wants.
It also happens to be the conservative position -— except for statist conservatives who would want to punish the hotels for renting to sodomites.
In fact - if a state passes laws that require renting to sodomites - the lib places greater value on that law over his own personal convictions.
Your misunderstanding of libertarianism is breathtaking.
Of course there's no need for a law "for or against enforcing a motel owner to rent to sodomites."
The motel owner has absolute control over who he or she rents to. No "law" is necessary to enforce that right. The market will take care of that. If the motel owner discriminates against the wrong people, popularity of the motel will sag, business will dry up, and soon there'll be another owner.
Your second contention, that "the lib places greater value on that law over his own personal convictions" tells me you know very new libertarians - or their philosophy - or you've got 'em confused with authoritarians.
