Book Description
This pocket-sized travel guide lists 141 properties in New York City's five boroughs that cost less than $150 a night (the average is closer to $99). Hotels, B&Bs, hostels, and extended-stay residences are reviewed and rated according to value, cleanliness, security, and guest services. Accommodations are organized by neighborhoods with lots of street maps and photographs of individual hotels. Special chapters list agencies that rent apartments and websites that allow you to book a room. Readers are advised on how to negotiate the best room at the best price and how to get freebies like refrigerators and microwave ovens. An index to hotels by category (full-services, limited-services, Euro-style, boutique) helps readers quickly identify their preferred lodging choice.
