thereuare Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Welcome to BetterBidding! If you haven't yet, please start by reading your messages. I believe there are more amenities then what you have posted above as HOTWIRE has a new interface that does not show the complete set of amenities unless you click thru a few extra links. If you repeat your search using our BiddingHelper.com tool... use the HOTWIRE EASY VIEW tab and then click the GREEN BUTTON next to this listing, do you see more amenities then what you have listed above? Using this method below is what i see for each; 2.5* Hoboken-North Bergen Free Parking Free Internet Pet Friendly Restaurant Laundry Hi-Speed Internet Travel Accessible Room Accessible Bathroom Accessible Handicapped Parking Roll-in Shower --> a guess would be The Executive Days Inn Hotel (there isn't too much executive about it, imo ;) ) 2* Hoboken-North Bergen Free Parking Complimentary Breakfast Free Internet Laundry Hi-Speed Internet --> Super 8 would be my best guess for this one I'm local to and quite familiar with this area... are you basically looking for a less expensive alternative to staying in Manhattan? Will you have a car? (if not, how are you arriving to the area) What is your maximum budget per nite for this trip?

MarcusT Posted July 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Yes I am basically looking for a cheap alternative to living in Manhattan. My max budget is $115/night. I do not have a car, and so I will rely heavily on public transport to get me around. I prefer a safer neighbourhood, which is why I avoided Long Island City area (according to reviews, this area is pretty secluded). Which would you recommend - Super8 or Days Inn? Would purchasing the Unlimited Ride MetroCard allow me to travel to and fro from North Bergen area to Manhattan? Or would I have to purchase a separate one since it is New Jersey. I apologize for the novice question; this is my first time visiting New York! Thank you very much for your help! Link to comment

thereuare Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Which would you recommend - Super8 or Days Inn?Neither of these would be my first choice... i can make some suggestions, but first, are your dates flexible at all (8/21-8/24 or 8/22-8/25) as these would offer you some options directly in NYC within your budget. Would purchasing the Unlimited Ride MetroCard allow me to travel to and fro from North Bergen area to Manhattan? Or would I have to purchase a separate one since it is New Jersey.The unlimited metrocard is no longer offered on a one-day basis and is now a 7 day minimum, which would not likely make sense for a 3 day stay. The NJ Transit bus fare from the North Bergen area would be about $3.25 (there are jitney busses too, which i think are $2.50, but a little less comfortable and less enjoyable). How are you arriving to the area (bus, train, plane) and what time are you arriving/departing? Please use the PRICELINE and HOTWIRE links on the board to begin your travel purchases.

MarcusT Posted July 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Yes 8/21 - 8/24 works for me! If you could kindly recommend somewhere closer to NYC, I would appreciate it. I will arrive and depart by Greyhound Bus, and will be dropped off in NYC at the following address: PORT AUTHORITY 625 8TH AVE, New York, NY 10018 The 7 day pass may still be worth it, considering I will be travelling a lot on those 4 days. I will have to do some calculations on my part. Can I use this MetroCard for both the NJ and NY Transit? Link to comment
thereuare Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 OK, so with your changed dates you have a better shot at something at $115 or less (8/22-8/25 would be even cheaper if you could swing those dates)... Given your budget is still a little tight, i'm assuming that the goal is the least expensive 3* or better property (to start, if rejected we'll discuss your options from there) at $115 or less? (ie- some areas such as 'Downtown-Financial' are a little outside of center, but for the right price is certainly do-able as you can easily take the subway to the 'midtown' area, and it will most certainly be more convenient then commuting to/from North Bergen)... we will therefore include all 'usual' zones (but if you have issue with any of the zones let us know and we will revise accordingly).
