Hello thank you so much for this API.
I am using this API to collect number of rooms in hotels in a certain area/city.
in the webpages, you can find this info in the section :
At a glance -> Hotel Size
in the “get_content” request, we can find that attribute within the response. but it is not always there.
Here are 2 examples where ‘hotel size’ attributes are returned, and 2 others where it isn’t:
Info Returned:
- name1: Aloft Riyadh
-propertyId: 15873305
-name2: MARIN SUIT EL SWEDI
-propertyId:101888776
Info Not Returned:
- name1: Reef Al Malaz Hotel International
-propertyId: 68219170
-name2: Comfort Inn Al Yarmouk
-propertyId:69847130
in all 4 cases, the information about hotel size is publicly displayed in the webpage. Can you please advise?

Hello,
I am just guessing, Hotels,Expedia, and Booking are merging the data together, the same propery may have different IDs so it may cause the issue.
May you share with me the body request sent to …/properties/v2/list to fetch those IDs (68219170, 69847130)?
Regards.
You are right, when i use your ids, now i got the correct response with the actual hotel size attributes.
I used the “…/properties/v2/list” endpoint to get those ids i mentioned earlier.
this is what an example response looks like, if you check the data[‘propertySearch’][‘properties’]:
{’__typename’: ‘Property’,
‘id’: ‘69847130’, <- property id
’featuredMessages’: [],
‘name’: ‘Comfort Inn Al Yarmouk’, <- property name
’availability’: {’__typename’: ‘PropertyAvailability’,
‘available’: False,
‘minRoomsLeft’: 0},
‘propertyImage’: {’__typename’: ‘PropertyImage’,
‘alt’: ‘’,
‘fallbackImage’: None,
‘image’: {’__typename’: ‘Image’,
‘description’: ‘Exterior’,
‘url’: ‘https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/70000000/69850000/69847200/69847130/4e1b02f5.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=455&ra=fit’},
‘subjectId’: 91024},
etc…
from now on, i will use the “…/locations/v3/search” endpoint as you advised.
Thank you very much for your quick reply, very much appreciated!
Well, the property 68219170, and 69847130 are not correct for those hotels. How did you get them? Now, check these screenshots :

Use the following to get the correct hotel IDs :
…/locations/v3/search?q=Comfort Inn Al Yarmouk&locale=en_US®iontype=511&langid=1033&siteid=300000001
…/locations/v3/search?q=Reef Al Malaz Hotel International&locale=en_US®iontype=511&langid=1033&siteid=300000001
Regards.
