DSK's room[edit]

Although many of the initial press reports did indeed quote a rate of $3,000 a night for DSK's room, some of the subsequent reports have set the rate as low as $525 a night. See here for example. I have therefore removed the room rate from the article. In any case, WP should not be sensational. - Ipigott (talk) 07:01, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
