Score a specific San Diego address against revenue, occupancy, and yield benchmarks.
San Diego's ADR rises 47% from Sep ($218) to Jun ($321), but occupancy rises 1.7× in the same window. The revenue lever here is occupancy capture, not pricing — set rates competitively in shoulder months to maximize summer bookings, then push ADR aggressively in peak months when demand is inelastic.
