I am not trying to excuse his behavior, but was it a surprise purchase like a birthday gift or something he preferred or expected you two discussed together? My husband wouldn’t care what I book and where because he is very easy going. He however knows better to not book anything without discussion of all options because I am not easy going at all, I don’t like surprises and mostly just because how I am.
Was he supposed to pay you back half of it, maybe he didn't feel like paying half for something he doesn’t like. If it was a gift from you, then of course he just had to say thank you and be quiet.

No, it wasn't a collective decision that had to be made. The concert was supposed to be this summer and was rescheduled for next summer. I had already previously booked a room (on my own), which I had to cancel, and then book another room for next summer instead. He doesn't care if I book it, or if he books it, and I didn't need to consult with him on it at all. IF we do end up going together, I could ask him to maybe split the cost of it with me, when he can afford to pay me for it. But I wasn't thinking that way -- I just wanted to book a room and fast before they all sold out. I took the last room available in the Inn in town. All others available were out of town and would be a pain in the butt. So, basically, I got what I could and as fast as I could, and it ended up being very expensive. He should have just said "thank you, and that was really nice of you to get such a nice room!"
