Sec. 301-11.12  How does the type of lodging I select affect my reimbursement?

    Your agency will reimburse you for different types of lodging as 
follows:
    (a) Conventional lodgings. (Hotel/motel, boarding house, etc.) You 
will be reimbursed the single occupancy rate.
    (b) Government quarters. You will be reimbursed, as a lodging 
expense, the fee or service charge you pay for use of the quarters.
    (c) Lodging with friend(s) or relative(s) (with or without charge). 
You may be reimbursed for additional costs your host incurs in 
accommodating you only if you are able to substantiate the costs and 
your agency determines them to be reasonable. You will not be reimbursed 
the cost of comparable conventional lodging in the area or a flat 
``token'' amount.
    (d) Nonconventional lodging. You may be reimbursed the cost of other 
types of lodging when there are no conventional lodging facilities in 
the area (e.g., in remote areas) or when conventional facilities are in 
short supply because of an influx of attendees at a special event (e.g., 
World's Fair or international sporting event). Such lodging includes 
college dormitories or similar facilities or rooms not offered 
commercially but made available to the public by area residents in their 
homes.
    (e) Recreational vehicle (trailer/camper). You may be reimbursed for 
expenses (parking fees, fees for connection, use, and disconnection of 
utilities, electricity, gas, water and sewage, bath or shower fees, and 
dumping fees) which may be considered as a lodging cost.
