is structure of table showing (or) result of report?

my guess is result of sqlplus report. if case, , want hotel name appear once (until changes), can specify

break on hotel;  select hotel, type, room_guest   hotels   order hotel; 

to achieve desired result.

if structure, cannot delete column values first row. (in fact, there nothing first row far database concerned). if trying eliminate duplicate data, normalizing table.

please post table description , tool (if any) you'd appropriate answers case.
