oh please, understand, I am DEFINITELY NOT mad at anyone on this site. I'm just a little frustrated with the situation, thats all. You ALL have been very helpful , and I DEFINITELY appreciate your time and replies. IF there are any more ally ways that you know of that I can attempt, please let me know. Thanks for taking the time to read and reply to my sarcastic posts.

Easy click DENIED my request, and I had to wait 5 days to figure it out. Terrible service. I was really pissed when they told me the hotel I requested, Astor, was booked the whole weekend and could NEVER have allowed me to stay there when they KNEW they were booked. I'm getting really frustrated. Can anyone help me on finding a place for that weekend??? Or do I have to stay at the Cockroach Motel Inn???

Thanks. I tried to book the Astor on Easyclick.com. That was helpful. It was $365 for 2 nights. Not the best, but I'll live with it if I get it. I'd almost rather wait it out to find out if I can get a cheaper hotel in a few weeks when they realize that I won't pay over $150 for a hotel room per night for the downtown French Quarter district. I'd rather just stay at the La Quinta if I were to do that. I wouldn't mind it as a last resort.

:) After trying many many rates for April 29th and 30th to May 2nd in New Orleans, I've still been unsuccesful in acquiring a hotel. Today I've tried rates as high as 135.00 for 2.5, 3, and 4 star hotels in the French Quarter, Central Business District, and the Convention Center areas. What the heck is going on here? I know the retail is around $188-200, but I can't even get a room period and I keep plugging away. I really don't want to pay over $100 but I am willing to for a room in the French Quarters. I am in dire straights here. Someone give me some suggestions. I don't really want to wait another month to book it because I'm afraid all the hotels will be booked by then. Help a brother out please!!!!
