# Google Hotels API Alternative, No SERP Key

**Use case:** 

The smallest useful configuration, for anyone comparing this against a SERP API: ten Amsterdam hotels, one night, every booking source per hotel. No API key, no per-search minimum, no monthly seat. The overview shows the run summary; switch to Hotels or Offers for the rows. Cost: 10 hotel rows at $0.004 plus 50 offer rows at $0.002 = at most $0.14 a run.

## Input

```json
{
  "queries": [
    "hotels in Amsterdam"
  ],
  "hotels": [],
  "checkIn": "30 days",
  "checkOut": "31 days",
  "sweepDays": 0,
  "adults": 2,

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
This Task's input is already configured above — use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).
