We now return more details about the Stays cheapest rate
When searching for stays, travellers want transparent pricing information for the cheapest room option for their selected stay. While we've always provided cheapest_rate_total_amount, we now offer additional fields that give you more flexibility in how you display pricing to your customers.
The new cheapest_rate_base_amount field shows the lowest base rate available among all rooms at this stay, excluding taxes and other fees. This allows you to display just the base rate prominently if you need to stay competitive with other websites, or to show it together with the total amount for a price breakdown.
The cheapest_rate_due_at_accommodation_amount field shows the additional mandatory fees (such as taxes) that is not included in the total amount that are payable at check-in or checkout and are not collected during the booking process. When combined with cheapest_rate_total_amount, this helps display the full price breakdown, ensuring all expenses are accounted for upfront.
