Total amount to be paid incl. taxes according Hotels.com was 208 euros. Could not pay in advance, had to pay at the hotel. They charged me 12 euros extra upon arrival. Explained it was a kind of tax. Allways skeptical when Hotels.com can’t charge the total amount. I experience that chosen hotel charge even more upon arrival. Happened last year as well in Marrakesh.
