The hotel selection in NYC generally falls into one of two categories -- "overpriced" or "stank" -- so I love the new Pod Hotel on 51st Street between 2nd and 3rd Aves. The rooms are freakishly small (hence the name), but the prices are also freakishly low, considering every room has a clean bed, an iPod dock, and an LCD TV. Queen and double rooms get their own private bath; single and bunk rooms have to share with the neighbors. Whatever -- it's only a few bucks more than a hostel. Even on the 4th of July, singles are $99/night and a queen is $169. It's not convenient to much of anything, but my wallet just doesn't care. Metrocard will save the day!
