For visiting Manhattan, there are still some relatively inexpensive hotels
that are OK. Near AMNH, there is the Riverside Towers
(_http://www.riversidetowerhotel.com/_ (http://www.riversidetowerhotel.com/)
). Very basic, like a
dorm room with a TV, phone, and your own bathroom/shower. Lowest rate is
$114, which is not available May 10-14, but there next step up is available
($149). Within easy walking distance of AMNH and near to the subway for
other
sites. Very clean, often used by international travelers. I've stayed
there
several times; no bugs, safe and relatively quiet neighborhood but there
are
still some restaurants etc open relatively late in the neighborhood.
I would encourage you to stay in the city, I think it was be horrible to
stay at the Newark Airport. Then you'd miss all of the other fun things to
do
in Manhattan at night.

I plan to visit NYC, and particularly the AMNH, around May 10-14. I see
hotel prices around the museum are formidable for one person. Is there
some outlying location where I can easily get in and out of midtown that
might provide more economical prices? I don't mind seeing the suburbs at
all.
