Still. I don't look at my nightly breakdown very closely unless something crazy comes up. If the total is in line with what I was expecting, I book. If the total came back as 14 USD or 1400 USD, I likely will investigate, but at 300 odd, unlikely.
300 for 2 nights is possible. I stayed at the JW Marriott Essex House once for ~170 a night.
Marriott should own this. I'd complain to the NY Dept of Consumer Affairs.
