How to read the table
Proof of measurement
Each row is one place on that night: name, type, district and asking price — exactly as measured. A place whose name we have not learned yet gets a dash, never an invented name. Source: public asking prices on hotel sites — hotels and listed rentals. Rental-only listings are not in this list.
