How to read the table

Price — the asking price for the stated terms
Vs median — difference from $435
No price — the place is sold out or closed

Proof of measurement

✓38 places checked
✓32 returned a price
✓Measured: 26.10.2026, 02:59
✓Source: public asking prices

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.

The prices visible while searching, not the prices rooms sold for.

2. Same terms for everyone

One night, 2 adults, the same date and currency for every place.

3. No price ≠ zero

Sold-out or closed places are counted separately and never drag the median down.
