That is not unusual for a business hotel (which almost all Hilton Hotels
are). Usually the rates drop for Friday-Sunday, the demographics of that

if a reservation falls into the business rate "zone" then the whole stay
gets priced that way. You can get around it by checking out and checking
back in but that is a hassle.
