14% local Airbnb tax deductible?

Here in Los Angeles the city collects a 14% local city tax on all Airbnb stays. Airbnb automatically collects this tax on behalf of hosts like me. My question is can I enter that amount (that Airbnb collected on my behalf) in TurboTax under where it says "Enter common expenses" > "Other taxes"?

Does it make any difference which way I enter it?
