    What to Look For in a Budget Hotel

    Last updated 2 days 11 hours ago

    When you decide to visit and stay in New York City, chances are you intend to spend the vast majority of your time exploring the city and experiencing everything it has to offer. Why, then, would you want to pay upward of $300 per night for a hotel room that you’ll only spend a few hours per day in? Budget hotels are certainly an excellent way to save on travel expenses and keep your cash for more exciting things. However, you must still be discerning to ensure that your stay is pleasant. Here’s what you need to look for:

    • Affordability

    One of the biggest factors to consider with discount hotels is the price. If the hotel is priced only slightly lower than others, you’re really not saving much at all.

    • Cleanliness

    All you really need is a place to sleep and shower, so having the latest and greatest in furnishings and amenities isn’t that important. However, you do need to be sure that the place you’re resting your head is clean and tidy for sanitary reasons.

    • Comfort

    You don’t really need a $3,000 pillow-top, king-sized mattress, but you also don’t want to be sleeping on a military cot. Minimalist furniture is one thing; non-existent or worn out furnishings are another. Be sure your discount hotel provides what you need for a comfortable night’s sleep.

    • Convenience

    When it comes to budget hotels in New York City, location is a major factor. Look at where the hotel is in relation to the places you want to visit. You’ll want to spend most of your time enjoying the city, not traveling through it.

    "One of the coolest places I've ever stayed. It has the majesty and style of the 1920s with lots of character and a little grunge for texture. Awesome."
