Need help with Linq

I am reasonably comfortable with LINQ, in particular the INQ for Lightspeed which I use, but I have come up against a problme I am just unable to get my head around, so I am hoping someone can help me.

Firstly the tables

HotelBooking, a table that contains all bookings made for a hotel.  The important fields are:
    Id                        int  keyfield
    RoomTypeId        int  FK to RoomType table
    RoomId                int   FK to Room table
    ArrivalDate           datetime
    DepartureDate    datetime
    Status                 int

HotelRoom, table contains all rooms in the hotel
     Id                       int Keyfield
     RoomName        string
     RoomTypeId       int FK to RoomTypeTable

HotelRoomAmenties, table containing the facilitoes / amenities available in each room, i.e. Smoking, Sea View, Internet etc
     Id                       int KeyField
     RoomId              int FK to HotelRoom
     Amentity             string Amenity name


Paramaters passed to LINQ
     RoomType                            int                       Limit the search to only rooms/bookings of this type.
     Arrival / Departure Date      datetimes            I need to know about all existing bookings within this time frame.
     Amenities                             List<String>        contains one value for each required room amentity


Below is the LINQ i use currently, which seems to work, however, the Amenties paramaters hve not yet been incorporated..

What I need it a list of HotelRooms that are of the correct type, along with the bookings currently in the system for the selected rooms and that overlap the supplied dates.  But I can not see how to do a r.Amenities in <List> amenities type criteria.

I would be eternally grateful for anyone who can assist with this.

Many thanks.
var bkngs = from b in uow.HotelBookings.Where(x => x.RoomTypeId == roomTypeId
                         && (
                               (x.CheckInDate >= arrivalDate &&
                                x.CheckInDate <= departDate)
                             ||
                               (x.CheckOutDate >= arrivalDate &&
                                x.CheckOutDate <= departDate)
                            )
                         && x.Status != (int)Enums.RoomBookingStatus.Cancelled
                       )
                      join r in uow.HotelRooms on b.RoomId equals r.Id into z
                      from r in z.DefaultIfEmpty()
                      join t in uow.HotelRoomTypes on b.RoomTypeId equals t.Id into y
                      from t in y.DefaultIfEmpty()
                      select new HotelRoomCalendarSearch
                          {
                              DateIn = b.CheckInDate,
                              DateOut = b.CheckOutDate,
                              FolioId = b.GuestFolioId,
                              GuestName =  b.GuestName,
                              Id = b.Id,
                              RoomId = b.RoomId,
                              RoomName = r.RoomName,
                              Status = b.Status
                          };
