Is my bank going to hassle me, or freeze my account, or even outright reject me if I try to deposit $1500 in cash on the other side of the country?
This isn't anything shady - my friends and I are meeting in New York and are splitting a hotel for 5 days. They're all going to pay me when I get there, and I'd like the money in my account before the hotel charges my card a bunch of money.
I just don't want to be stuck in New York with a frozen bank account.
Which bank? And no, they wouldn't care about a deposit. It's a small one, too, not gonna raise any flags.

Wells Fargo. I didn't think it seemed like much, I just don't ever deposit cash into my account. I do almost all of my banking online.
Oh, also, if you're super paranoid call your bank before you leave and confirm that they won't care.

No, only over $10k would they get suspicious
At least that's how it is in Canada. If there is a deposit of cash over 10k without an invoice or record then the bank must inform the Canada revenue agency and RCMP
As a Plan B, you could just take the money downstairs and pay the motel with it. I'm sure they'd be happy to take it.
