Default Stating prices at retail inclusive of taxes

I've got a bill in front of me here from the Hilton at LA airport and
every day has two line items:

Guest room $159.00
Room taxes $ 22.35

I expect the rate I was quoted was $159.00, as that sounds a much
rounder figure than $179.35


cough $181.35

(although some might say not as round as $160).
