OK, first, I’m notoriously cheap and have a hard time with what most NYC hotels charge.
And Times Square is a little too crazy for my taste.
We’ve been staying at the Stanford Hotel on 32nd street. Really cheap but good decent size rooms and a free continental breakfast in the morning. It’s right across the street from Herald Square, close to Macys and the Empire State Building. About a 15 minute walk to Times Square. Little Korea is right there…great dumplings. Very convenient to Madison Square Garden and Penn Station.
If anyone ever stays there, ask for a room in the back! Folks outside can get very loud on the weekends. Or bring earplugs (a good idea for almost any room in NY :))
