Conference hotel booking question

[9078]

Has anyone else tried to reserve a room for the conference, and gotten a significantly higher rate than quoted on the flyer?

Using the flyer rates, I anticipated (and budgeted) $525 for Tuesday thru Friday, and when I go to book the room I am being quoted $1005.

Did we wait too long to reserve rooms, or are we missing something?

I must have got lucky, original block has sold out, I think they have a secondary block. Check the website. Saw Friday night is up to $249. It also happens to be first week of March Madness!
