Hospitality Tax

It is paid in cash on arrival. Cash is required so that the owner can avoid paying income tax on the tax. 

The local governments can change the amount rather suddenly, without advance notification to property owners and managers. This means that you may find that the tax amount when you arrive is slightly different than what you were quoted when you made a reservation. The property owner and manager has no control over the amount or changes, but needs to collect what the government mandates. You are required to pay the tax in force at the time you arrive. 

The tax applies to the first 7 or 10 days of your stay depending on location.
