    Hotel Occupancy Plummets in March 
    In what would normally be the busiest month of year, occupancy rates at Valley hotels plummeted to levels that rival the blazing middle of summer and its dearth of tourists. In Phoenix, hotel occupancy fell 71.6 percent from last year for the last week of March, tourism officials said. Scottsdale-area hotels and resorts saw occupancy decline by 53.7 percent for the month. (Source: AZCentral)
