Trump International Hotel DC Has Rooms Available

this week. In fact, you could check in any day you like. Plenty of vacancies. Rooms from $444 per night.

Interesting, I think. You'd think it would be full, Trump running for President and all.

See for yourself. Go to the website and check availability for any date. Plenty of rooms available, even on short notice. Hmmm....

They would try to tack a few hundred more on your credit card without your consent.

I would stay away like it's diseased and infested with vermin.

I wouldn't stay there, or any tRump tacky palace, for free. I really mean that! I will never set foot in any of those crap holes.

Not surprising at all. His base can't afford the rate and 75% who can will find other accommodationsl. Should have thought this through before embarking on his tour tour to Neverland.

The hotel needed to charge $750 per night to break even. They must be losing tons of money.

dropped out the bidding for the building because they realized there was no way to make money on the deal.
