allegedly, catagories are based upon redemptions, not daily rates...........

I have just completed a stay for the period Thursday, August 29th through Sunday, September 1st.

I had a online rate of $69.00 per night for this location.

Originally, I booked a rate for $89.00 which was good. Next day, I went back on the Marriott website and saw the rate of $69.00 per night and it was not an advanced purchase rate. This was for a regular room. However, as I have been fortunate many times in the past, I was able to upgrade to a Junior Suite for the same price. I had 2 other family members with me.

I enjoyed my trip as well as my family.

As you wouldn't expect to see a very low rate like this, has any one else had a very low rate on a Category 6?
