#### 🎉 Booking.com Scraper — Launch (v1.0)!

- **Six scrapers in one actor** — pick the operation, paste the input, one clean dataset per run.
  - `search` — paginated hotel search by destination name (auto-resolves to Booking's `dest_id`)
  - `searchByCoordinates` — paginated hotel search by lat/lon
  - `hotelDetail` — single-row deep info for one hotel ID
  - `reviews` — paginated reviews with traveler segment, room name, nights stayed, pros/cons, language
  - `calendarPricing` — 30-day forward availability + length-of-stay rules per date
  - **`forensicsBundle`** — premium: fuses 5 endpoints (details + photos + reviews + policies + facilities) into 1 ultra-rich row per hotel
- **Property Forensics is unique to SIÁN** — no other actor on the Apify store ships this depth of per-property data in a single structured row.
- **30-day forward calendar feed** for revenue-management use cases.
- **Traveler-segment review breakdown** — every review row carries `reviewerGroup` (solo / family / couple / business), `roomName`, `nightsStayed`, `helpfulVoteCount`.
- **Curated camelCase aliases** on every row (`hotelId`, `reviewScore`, `priceTotal`, `hotelPageUrl`, `coverPhotoUrl`, …) PLUS raw upstream fields for power users.
- **HTTPS auto-normalized** on every photo / cover URL.
- **HTML run report** saved to the key-value store on every run (even on fatal crash) — status badge, success/error counts, success rate, pages fetched, duration, inputs.
- **Pay-per-event pricing** with auto-laddered 6-tier ladder; error rows are never charged.
- **Vendor-neutral runtime** — no third-party upstream names leak into logs or rows; `BOOKING_API_BASE` env var lets you swap upstreams without code changes.
