Thanks a lot!
I got friends just came back and saying Times Square is a bit over crowded and probably not safe.. didn't ask in details, but it's her suggestion try to avoid that area. She stayed at one of the Hyatt opposite Empaire State building, which she thought the area they stayed is good.. But if you have some good suggestion, I'll definitely have a look! :)
well, even you thought the room size of Hudson may not be good, I'll leave it then.. lol
I don't particularly want to stay near/next to China Town, which I assume it may be a bit mixed.. I may miss some of the areas from my list due to lack of homework I've done so far.. Really appreciated if you can help me to get some great deals.. budge up to $250 if it's really good for 4 / 4+ stars
