Now your Unique selling points will appear in the Search & Book results. 
Please note: in the Search & Book the maximum number of Unique selling points is different, namely 3. 

Set on type level:

1. Choose 'Types' from the left menu and select the type;
2. On the page of your type, add a 'Snippet' (at the desired location);
3. Under 'Snippet', select the 'Unique selling points';

4. Next, you will find the 5(!) Unique selling points you have added in Booking Experts at the chosen location in your page type.


Tag with accommodation or type

When  all underlying accommodations of a type have similar tags, you can enter those with the type. Tags that distinguish one accommodation from other accommodations you enter at the accommodation.

Example:
All accommodations of type A have a bathtub. Dit tag you enter with the type. From all accommodations of that same type you only have 2 accommodations that have a separate shower. This tag you enter with the accommodation.
