I never wasted time in analyzing the receipt of a few euros for maybe claiming a few cents.
I know that's the criterium for deciding if it's a taxable stay or not, my question was if it's charged on award stays.
In a suite, the BAR for the stay is eur 1.500, so actually I do care if it's charged...
