When on a travel site and a map appears with several 'pins' in it
representing hotel options. When clicking on one of the pins and a pop
up appears with the hotel name and address, should the hotel name and
address be automatically read by a screen reader? Right now there is
nothing and I must use the down arrow to begin hearing the content.

Is there a WCAG code (3.2.2 perhaps?) that covers this?

Thanks!
Joe
