Doug,
Great tip! I got the same deal!
$250 sure beats the heck out of the $800+ reservation I got through the unresponsive Tampa Housing Bureau.

Just a quick suggestion to anyone going to OOPSLA who
hasn't booked a
hotel room yet: I was originally going to try to find a somewhat cheaper hotel downtown than the suggested ones (which had "special" OOPSLA rates of $140-$150 per night), such as the Holiday
Inn several
blocks away for about $100. But then I happened to try
priceline.com,
and set a price of $50/night for any 3-star hotel, and it actually reserved the Marriott Waterside (adjacent to the conference, originally $150)! (This was for Sat.-Wed.)
