Confirm the card and the hold before booking
Paying for a room with a debit card does not by itself confirm that the hotel accepts it for the security hold at check-in.
Ask whether your physical debit card is accepted for incidentals, and whether its name must match your ID.
Confirm the room balance, hold amount, nightly or per-stay basis, and any cap.
Ask when the hotel releases unused funds and how long your bank may take to make them available.
