In order to serve ads for your Hotel campaign, you must create anAdGroupwith at least one ad in the ad group. As shown
later, a Hotel campaign supports only an ad group of theHOTEL_ADStype,
which you can set in thetypefield. The
code example also sets a Percent CPC bid since
the campaign's bidding strategy isPercentCpc.
