Checked individually, nights 1 and 4 were the same price, as were nights 2 and 3, which were higher.

In pairs, they all priced at the higher rate; so 1-2 2-3 and 3-4 all priced the same, at the night 2 and 3 rate.

In threes, 1-2-3 and 2-3-4 priced the same, at the higher nights 2 and 3 rate.

However, priced as a single four night stay, the nightly rate was higher than any individual night. Don't get that at all.

Cheapest was three separate rezzies, -- night 1, nights 2-3, and night 4, which is what I booked.

Just another data point, -- YMMV, obviously.
It's a lot of work to check all contiguous partitions of the stay before making a multiple night reservation.
