¿Qué significa esta frase?
Well, here I am with a homework question. Tonight is my second class in Intermediate Spanish for Travelers. I've finished preparing except for one thing. The phrase that has me stumped is "firma con cargo la habitación." I'm pretty sure it has something to do with charging the expense of something, say a meal, to one's hotel room, but I can't pin down an exact meaning. Can anyone help? (I have filled out my profile. ;>) )

"Firma con cargo a la habitación" means that you charge the cost of something (meals, room service, tickets or transportation) to your account.
It is "a la habitación"
But I don't know how do you say that in English.
Recently I was in a trip to the Amazonas. There we signed in a paper form with the room number for transportation, different activities and 24 hours internet access
"Charge it to the room." "Sign to have it charged to the room." "A la habitación."

"A la habitación" makes more sense to me, but it definitely says "firma con cargo la habitación," not "a la habitación." It is the same in several places on the page, which looks like a travel ad the instructor copied from somewhere.
Anyway, yes, I speculated that it meant you could charge something to your room (the account with the hotel for your stay in a room there), the only literal translation I could come up with being "sign with charge the room." Maybe "sign against the room charge"?
