Priceline Hotel: 4* New Orleans (French Quarter) Marriott

I used the PRICELINE link to search and book my hotel in New Orleans. I had a bit of an issue getting a hotel on my original dates (3/6 - 3/10), having started my bids at $60 and gone as high as $150 for a 4* in the French Quarter. I looked at the normal Priceline rates and, for some reason, Tuesday March 9th is more than twice as expensive as the rest of the stay, including weekend nights.

I finally split my bid and got the first three nights for $65 (tried $60 first and it asked me to pay $72, so I re-bid at $65). I tried bidding for one night for 3/9 - 3/10, and I got as high as $150 again but no-go (I wonder what is going on that night. I googled and couldn't find anything).

Anywho, I started digging through some of the hotel websites and found that the Bourbon Orleans (a 3.5*) has their King rooms for $111 for Tuesday night if you book through their website. My wife and I decided it was worth it so we'll be switching hotels for our last night in New Orleans. I found this odd since Priceline listed the rate for this hotel at $186.00 for that night.

Total price was $228.93 (195 + 33.93 in taxes and fees).
