Hello I’m trying to make a filter on WordPress that will filter out values based on checked checkboxes using ACF (Advanced Custom Fields), I inspected my code and the values are passing and it’s not showing any errors on console but the result is not filtering. Sorry if it’s a trivial issue I’m new to this plugin.

if(isset($_GET['BtnSubmit'])){
										
					global $wpdb;

					$data_array = array (
						'name-application' => $_GET['name-application'],
						'destination-application' => $_GET['destination-application'],
						'category-application' => $_GET['category-application'],
						'amenities-application' => $_GET['amenities-application'],	
						'tags-application' => $_GET['tags-application'],	
					);

					$_name = $data_array['name-application'];
					$_destination = $data_array['destination-application'];
					$_category = $data_array['category-application'];
					$_amenities = $data_array['amenities-application'];
					$_tags = $data_array['tags-application'];
$the_query = new WP_Query( array(
						'posts_per_page'=> 10,
						'post_type'=> 'accommodation',
						'post_status' => 'publish',
						'orderby' => 'date',
						'order'   => 'ASC',
						'tax_query' => array(
							'relation' => 'AND',
								array(
									'taxonomy' => 'category',
									'field' => 'term_id',
									'terms' => $_category,
									'include_children' => true,
									'operator' => 'IN'
								),
								array(
									'taxonomy' => 'post_tag',
									'field' => 'term_id',
									'terms' => array($_tags),
									'operator' => 'LIKE'
								),
								'meta_query' => array(
									'relation' => 'AND',
										array(
											'key' => 'destinations',
											'type' => 'NUMERIC',
											'value' => $_destination,
											'compare' => '='
										),
										array(
											'key' => 'amenities',
											'type' => 'CHAR',
											'value' => serialize(array(implode(", ", $_amenities))),
											'compare' => '='
										)
									),
								),
							'relation' => 'AND',
							's' => $_name,
							'paged' => get_query_var('paged') ? get_query_var('paged') : 1)
						);										
					}
<h6>SEARCH BY AMENITIES</h6>
