Daily Rates Guide

The Rate contains a collection of elements that define the amount of the rate, associated fees, additional occupant amounts as well as payment and cancellation policies.

Each 'Rate' element should only contain a single night. If the reservation is for multiple nights, then multiple 'Rate' elements should be present.

Base Amount: The base amount charged for the accommodation - ie: the cost of the room only
Total Amount: The Total amount charged for the accommodation - ie: the cost of the room inclusive of any additional fees or extras, such as extra occupants

The following is an example of how daily rates should be sent for a reservation that contains 2 adults and 2 child guests, but the included occupancy is '2' resulting in each child guest incurring a $15 surcharge per person per night.
