About these numbers
Each range is the middle half of the prices businesses publish on their own websites: a quarter of listed prices are lower and a quarter are higher. States need at least 8 published prices and cities at least 5 to be shown. Prices are refreshed monthly. They are what businesses advertise, not what every customer pays, so always confirm when you book.
