Multi Room Type Booking Engine (https://book.bookingcenter.com/02/?site=xxxxx)

This Booking Engine template is advertised at: http://www.bookingcenter.com/interfaces-and-modules/bookingengine-api/ and allows a property who has multiple Room Types, with multiple Rates and Packages, to have a graphically-rich Booking Engine accessed via a QuickReservation link.  The URL parameter pass-through is a dynamic URL construction to hand off the reservation request from an external website to get results from the BookingCenter XML Server. It accepts these variables.

Single Room Type Booking Engine (https://book.bookingcenter.com/01/?site=xxxxx)

This Booking Engine template is more simple and is used by properties who sell each Room (or Type) with a single rate, and doesn't want to visually break our Package Rates from regular Rates.  This is also a graphically-rich Booking Engine that can be accessed via a dynamic URL construction to hand off the reservation request from an external website to get results from the BookingCenter XML Server. It accepts the same variables as the Multi Room Type and Package Booking Engine above.
