An observation about hotel prices.

I really like the new format for the hotel listings, very nicely done.

I just started this thread cause I notice that when I look in guidebooks for hotels I see a considerable # in the 100-200 INR price range. But it seems like on this site that there are many fewer hotels that are listed that are in this price range.

Anybody have a reason why this is?

The old hotel listings had the price in a field, but the import software didn't parse it correctly. I'll fix that this weekend.

These hotels had a lot of inventory in the 100-200 range.
