Room-based pricing vs Occupancy-based pricing

Within the Hotel-Spider the price structure for every single hotel can be configured according to two distinct models.

Room-based pricing

In this model, only one price is stored per product (room type + rate plan). When a reservation is made, the pricing will not take into account the number of guests nor the age of the guests.

Occupancy-based pricing

In this model, one price for every configured occupancy will be stored in the Hotel-Spider. When a reservation is made, the pricing will take into account the number of guests that will stay in a room (it may not take into account the age of the different guests depending on the portal).
