English term or phrase: reserve
Is "reserve" here the same as "reservation, booking"?.

“This booking does not accept changes due to the hotel policy. Additionally, if the cancellation occurs less than 72 hours before the date of entry into the hotel, the customer will pay an amount may vary from the price of one night and 100% of the amount of **reserves** depending on the destination date and hotel booked.”
