If you don’t mind staying at B&B, you can find cheaper price. Try Airbnb, flipkey, & vrbo etc. I booked a room near French quarter during Mardi Gras weekend for just $90 comparing to $300 for a hotel room.

I second this, although VRBO is more expensive than AirBnB. I researched for months to find a centrally located hotel that didn’t break the bank and had fairly decent reviews.  The most cost efficient option I found was AirBnB. It’s significantly less expensive and to see the sites you can use the streetcar car, it’s only $3 for a one day pass. This will also save money on cabs/Uber/Lyft.
