That was for the Secret Service to stay there. They received a discounted rate for rooms.According to the Washington Post Trump’s properties had billed the government “at least $2.5 million." as of Jan of 2021. The salary of the president is 400 grand.
So, you are correct it was 6 times as much, not 5.
Thanks
How much did the government pay for Obama's trips to Chicago and Hawaii?
Trump even provided rooms for the National Guard troops in DC that had been forced to live in a parking garage in the winter, with no heat and limited restroom facilities. No showers, and no hot food available either.
