Given that Singapore is rated as the most expensive city in the world, your proposal of $200 a night sounds reasonable to me.

Since I imagine that most everyone has already booked rooms, and I'd like to ensure as quickly as possible that I have a place to stay, can the EC let me know what I'm approved for?

Brenden
