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 the full list of amenities i'm seeing for the 3 star hotel in this zone when searching for your dates:

Complimentary Breakfast

Free Internet

Fitness

Pool

Restaurant

Business

Laundry

Hi-Speed Internet

Room Accessible

... if this is what you're seeing, the Clarion Collection Hotel Verve would be my best guess for this one (although i can't say for certain if they actually do have a Pool and/or Restaurant... but the 4.5/5.0 TA rating of this HOTWIRE offer does give assurance that it should be a good stay even if it proves to be some other property).

Since this an extended stay you could see if this same property is offered for the first (or last) nite of your stay and then again for the balance. If so, you could purchase the solo nite in order to 'look behind the curtain'. If you're happy with the results purchase the remaining nites, if not, make alternate plans for the balance of your stay.

... but personally i think for $5-$10 more per nite you could stay at a higher rated hotel directly in Manhattan and the added convenience (and nicer area) would be worth the few dollars more per nite (to me at least).

Please keep all posts for the same stay in the same thread. Once you win a hotel use the 'ADD REPLY and REPORT WIN' button on the lower right corner of this page in order to edit the topic title to reflect your win and to provide the details of your purchase.

This 2.5* LES property has not yet been reported to the board. The Fairfield Inn and Suites New York Manhattan/Downtown, Blue Moon, and the Best Western Bowery Hanbee all seem to fit the amenity description are are like likely candidates, although there could still be others as well.

Again, this may be a situation where it pays to see if the hotel is offered for the first/last nite of your stay (and then again for the balance) in order to determine what it is before committing to the entire stay.

However, i still think there are better options...

HOTWIRE has a 3.5* hotel in the MSG zone with a 4.5/5.0 TA rating for $85/nite:

Free Internet

Boutique

Smoke Free

Fitness

Restaurant

Business

Hi-Speed Internet

Blind Accessible

Travel Accessible

Room Accessible

Wheelchair Accessible

Bathroom Accessible

Handicapped Parking

Roll-in Shower

... my guess here would be the Yotel Times Square, which although a little bit west, is more centrally located in midtown (than any LES property) and although the subway is two avenues away, you can get there via the back entrance of the Port Authority which puts you indoors after only one avenue (which may be an important factor given your dates are in February and one never knows how cold it will be).. as well, lots of Restaurants along the Ninth Avenue between 42nd St and the low 50s.

The extra $5/nite for this MSG property would be worth the full star rating higher than the LES property, the higher user review rating, and the more central midtown location (unless for some reason you have reason/need to stay downtown and more of your activities are in that area)
