Well, i've tried up to 135$ and 3* ( used your links ) ... but got nothing. I will try in the next few days up to 150$. I'd like to stay in Manhattan, somewhere close to subway ( I don't mind a 15 min walk to it, in fact we intend to walk quite a lot ), so the zones would be : CPS, Chelsea, ESB, HK, LES, MSG, MTE, MTW, Soho, TK. For a 3*, I'll go up to 233$ / night, tax included for a 700$ stay 3 nights. Anything higher is just too expensive, considering that most of the time we're going to be outside In this case, would you recommend 2.5* or even 2*? The reason I ask if I should wait is that what I can see the prices are 2-3 times higher on 18-21 may than any other period, perhaps we'll get a 10-15% coupon or a good express deal ) Thanks!
