i'm from england... nowehere near NJ or anything, but i'm planning a trip along the east coast of the usa in the future, starting in boston MA, and ending up in DC. because there is so much stuff in NYC that i wanna see, it'll have to be at least one overnight stop, and if i can't naturally make a good friend from NYC who has a sofa i can crash on, it'll have to be somewhere paid... which sucks.
what's overnight accommodation like in NYC?
