New York is probably my favourite city in the United States. If you've recently done a hotel search here, you're safe to conclude that it's everyone else's too.
Decent hotels begin at US$300/night for a weekend!! So for my last trip to NY, when I made my pilgrimage to Ippudo NY, I wound up staying at a hostel in the Upper West Side. US$30/night for a bunk in a 4 bed room. It wasn't bad and it was clean. The latter characteristic is the exception rather than the rule for low cost lodging over there. And speaking of low cost lodging...
Expedia has ran some adverts offering cheap lodging in New York for under $60.00. Better read this story before you buy your plane tix and book a "hotel". BEWARE!
