They never break them down.... and tough to know what their booking fee actually is.

Of course, I think they only pay the hotel taxes on what they pay the hotel... but charge us based on our bid.... so they are also pocketing that difference as well.

I know there was some question about this practice some time ago but do not believe it ever went anywhere.
