According to the NPR article, the SS has a $200 per-diem limit for hotel expenses and by staying with Trump at his hotel (where rooms run about $1k/night), exceeded this limit.
This raises the question: how do accommodations work for president's entourages when traveling? I have a hard time believing that they restrict themselves to Holiday Inn tier establishments. Hotel rooms in larger cities can easily run $500/night, especially on a short notice.
