This document provides guidance on setting up custom parameters for remarketing tags for hotels and rentals websites. It describes the required and recommended custom parameters to include in the remarketing tag such as rental ID, page type, start and end dates, and total value. It then provides examples of how to set these custom parameters on different page types like the home page, search results page, offer detail page, purchase page, and other pages. Finally, it recommends verifying the setup using the tag assistant and checking that remarketing lists start populating in AdWords after 48 hours.
