What this means at check-in

The authorization is placed when you arrive, separately from your room rate, even if the room is already paid for. On a credit card it reduces your available credit. On a debit card the same amount can make real cash temporarily unavailable in your bank account.

The same $100-per-day security deposit, up to a maximum of $400, applies when a debit card is presented.
