No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

Constitution of the United States, Third Amendment

Grant no quarter. But allegedly, at least one local hotel has asked a group of ICE agents to leave.

This is in the ICE detention centre, so it doesn't violate that amendment.

Not a USer but, if someone gives permission then it doesn't appear to be an issue at all, right?

Yes, during the revolution British soldiers would demand to be quartered within residential homes, often requiring the family to also feed them. There was still the notion a swelling of troops may need quartering within residential homes after the revolution, but the constitution mandates you cannot require it.
