I booked this one, and you were correct in your guess. I wanted to keep looking, but the prices keep climbing(this one went from $167 this am to $170 this pm) and hotels are disappearing as options so I figured I just better choose. It is:
Holiday Inn New York City - Lower East Side
150 Delancey Street, New York City, NY 10002
Here were the amenities:
4* HOTWIRE Lower East Side - East Village for $170.00
Free Internet
Smoke Free
Fitness
Restaurant
Business
Hi-Speed Internet
Uggh. Haven't had much research time with work and my son's summer baseball schedule. I need 2 beds.
I almost went with the money saving presumed Holiday Inn, but then keep seeing this one and backed out just before purchasing. I was also confused by the cancellation insurance, but from what I read it seems that you have to be near death to get refunded? I was going to get it just in case, but then after reading it didn't seem very useful. The other one that intrigues me is the following:
4* $189 Times Square North
FULL AMENITIES: Pet friendly, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Restaurant(s), Business center, Self-service laundry, Internet access, Spa services
Thought it may be the Sheraton Times Square or Hilton Midtown? Would Times Square North be more convenient than the others?
We could do a pull out if we had to, but I would much rather have a real bed for that long of a stay. One of my "children" is 6 foot and I have heard that sometimes they run out of roll-a-way beds and sofa beds are so uncomfortable.
Because the prices have gone up, I figured my budget would have to also in order to stay in the city. I still would like to at least keep the room rate at $200 or below.
Thanks for providing this website as such a great resource for bargain hunters!

I have read that you are pretty knowledgeable with NYC, so any others that you may find would be much appreciated! I am trying to stay around $200 or below.
I have checked airfare. There are several date ranges available for only about $10 difference. I have not purchased tickets yet because I was looking to find a reasonable hotel also. I am planning to purchase both at the same time when I see a good deal. That's why I am trying to narrow down areas so that I can find the best fit for us for hotel. Is it reasonable to say that you can easily access tourist sights using public transportation from most of the central areas that Hotwire offers? I assume since we are dong a variety of things will not all be in one area that it would't matter as much for the location of our hotel. If not, then I will need to concentrate my search on only certain areas.
I will be visiting NYC for the 1st time this summer with my 12 and 16 year old kids. We plan on doing all of the tourist things, Statue of Liberty, 9/11, museums, etc. I haven't booked flights, but am looking at several sets of dates all in mid July, with stays that vary from 4 to 7 nights. Are there any areas that I should particularly look for or avoid? We plan on using public transportation the majority of the time, so don't really have a desired zone, although safety is a big concern being a mom with kids. I would like to keep the $ just under $200 after all taxes/fees.
A few Hotwire hotels I have been following and would love advice on are as follows for the dates of July 13-18th :
3*s Theater District - Midtown West $149
FULL AMENITIES: Free breakfast, Free Internet, Boutique hotel, Smoke-free rooms, Fitness center, Business center, Internet access
or
3*'s Times Square South $150

or
