“The general manager of the Trump International Hotel in Manhattan had a rare bit of good news to report to investors this spring: After two years of decline, revenue from room rentals went up 13 percent in the first three months of 2018,” the Washington Post reports.
“What caused the uptick at President Trump’s flagship hotel in New York? One major factor: ‘a last-minute visit to New York by the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia.'”
“Neither Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman nor members of the royal family stayed at Trump’s hotel… the Trump hotel didn’t have suites big enough to accommodate them. But ‘due to our close industry relationships, we were able to accommodate many of the accompanying travelers.'”
