GSA sets non-standard rates like this one after surveying actual lodging costs in the area, rather than applying a single nationwide figure — see how the standard rate compares to listed cities for the full mechanics.
Lodging here isn't flat year-round: the cap runs highest at $436.00 a night in February, March, April, and falls to $258.00 a night in May, June, July, August, September. A trip that starts in a peak month and ends in a low month is billed at each night's own rate, which is exactly what the calculator above does automatically — see our guide to how lodging rates change by season. On your first and last travel day, M&IE drops to $64.50 under the 75% first/last-day rule — full days in between are paid at the full $86.00.
