View your availability, rates, and inventory

The Hotel Center Availability report provides a detailed summary of the data you're sending to Google. The report includes 2 filterable tables, the “Overall availability” table and the “Availability by date” table. Using the “Overall availability” table, you can view the availability of all of your rooms and properties in one glance. With the “Availability by date” table, you can enter a date range to view your available inventory on particular days. You can filter results by “Room ID”, “Rate plan ID”, "Occupancy", and more. This article explains both how to view your report and how to understand the elements it includes.

Room rate details

In the "Rate details" pop-up window, you can view information like “Rate”, “Rate-based taxes and fees”, “Minimum advance purchase”, “Closed to arrival”, and “Minimum stay”. The following table describes the information you'll find in the "Rate details" window:

Category	Element name	Description
Rate details	Room ID	This specifies the unique ID for the room data.
	Rate plan ID	A custom identifier defining a specific room bundle combination.
	Rate	The base rate (before taxes and fees) for the selected occupancy.
	Additional guests	This shows charges that have been added for additional adults or children.
	Rate-based taxes and fees	This includes the taxes and fees defined with the rates for this room type, rate plan, and date. Rate-based taxes and fees don’t include taxes and fees defined at the property level.
	Total	This shows a total price (including taxes and fees).
	All-inclusive	This identifies rooms that are all-inclusive.
	Occupancy	The maximum number of guests for a room or package.
Available	Inventory	This identifies the number of rooms that are available in a particular room type.
