Common pitfalls to avoid

Many travelers double-tip when a service charge is already included, or forget that taxes may be added at checkout rather than shown upfront. Another frequent mistake is assuming “fees” are mandatory everywhere—some are negotiable, avoidable, or only apply in specific booking channels.

Tips to score higher

Look for keywords like “service included,” “plus tax,” and “per night” to understand what’s being charged and when. When in doubt, calculate the base amount first, then add tax, then decide on any additional tip so you don’t stack percentages on top of each other.
