"Everything is sold out," Ian, who attended the rally, also shared his feelings. "I had to leave my current hotel and go to a two-star for a lot of money, which stinks, and the sheets have cigarette burns."
The Sputnik correspondent also had difficulty finding a place, as everything was sold out within an hour's proximity, and prices skyrocketed for low-rated accommodations.
For example, a hotel that normally costs $65 increased to $350 while at the same time no rooms were available anymore.
