Seafarers is a great place to stay relatively cheap in NYC. By no means is is dodgy or crap, but its not the hilton either. Rooms, whilst small are adequate for a stay in NYC, its a place to rest your head when you get back after a big day. The surrounding area has expensive and cheap food, in between... more

This place is the perfect choice for an affordable stay in New York. The room we had was big enough with a twin bed and a cot, a hand basin & cable tv. The rooms shared bathroom & toilet were always kept clean. There was a coin operated laundry in the basement, coffee & tea in the lobby & 2... more

We stayed 4 nights here in September and it was perfect. The room was clean, a reasonable size (for two sharing + shared bathroom) and in a handy location. We wanted somewhere basic, which was nice and cheap compared to the other over-priced New York hotels/hostels and this must be a real hidden gem. It worked out £50 per night... more

You're just a block from Union Square, the Subway, a Whole Foods Market, the beloved Strand bookstore, a chocolate bar to die for....you're right in the... more

We stayed for 3 nights in two single rooms with shared bathroom ( no doubles available) and for the fourth night stayed in a double room with private bath. The value was incredible as... more

This place is 100 percent of what I wanted and needed -- a quiet, safe, well-located place to sleep while enjoying Manhattan. I usually stay at 4 and 5 star places or exclusive apartments, so the idea of shared bath and shower frightened me back to the days of college dorms and dirty facilities. Not the case here. The single... more

Without a doubt the best thing going for this hotel is the location. It was by far the cheapest budget accommodation I could find in Manhatten that didn't have mice, bedbugs or cockroaches! It's in the heart of Manhatten, just off Union Square and a stones throw from 14th Street subway station. There is a small reception area with tea/coffee... more

The location was perfectly located in the city with the subway only a little over a block away. With two supermarkets within two blocks it was easy to grab a midnight snack or sodas and talk to the locals. For those of you who like a night cap, There's a sports bar catty corner but with the windows closed you... more

As first time travellers to the USA, we were looking for a place to stay which had good transport links, good reviews and reasonably priced and this had it all. The staff were great, the rooms were clean and the location was perfect. There were several bars and restaraunts very close, which we tried and found to be very good.... more
