Below the Occupancy Graphs, you'll notice the Occupancy Charts. Along the top of the chart is the date and along the left side of the chart are the reservation types. The numbers represent the number of lodgings on the given date. The big number on the left represents this year's number whereas the number of the right represents last year's number.
