Cheap hotels in NYU's vicinity?

<p>Hey, I was accepted into Stern, although I havent seen teh school. My mom and I are scheduling a trip in late february to go to NYC for about 4 days/3 nights and check out the school, along with doing some sightseeing, lol. I was wondering, since I have never been before, if anyone can recommend decent hotels for around 120 dollars a night, located somewhere around nyu. I dont think there is, and we are perfectly fine staying at motel 6, but I thought I would give it a shot, lol.</p>

<p>There's a heating grate near Bobst Library that you can probably rent for $120/night.</p>

<p>the marriot gives discounts this tme of year (right after jan 1)... u could try one of them... there are several marriots right around time square w different prices...</p>

<p>try orbitz or priceline.</p>

<p>i judt orbitzed it.
you can get a 3 star hotel for about $120 a night, if youre not too picky about where you stay.</p>

<p>Even after you make a reservation, keep looking, especially the closer you get to your visit date. We've seen tremendous last-minute price drops, especially at the Residence Inn by Marriott Times Square‎.</p>
