you can prob find some decent places for $100/night in Manhattan if you look around. hotels.com has some good rates. priceline as well.

here is a place on the upper west side for $100/night

Ty for the respones. Yes, I was talking about 100$/room. I guess we should stay away from Manhattan. I've googled a bit more and found some places within the 100$ range in Manhattan, but in general all these suck?

It's not like we go broke if we have to go wider than 100$ a night, but it would be nice to have a little budget made from home.
And it's our first trip outside Europe, and I guess it's different, but we'll get over it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I think the correct answer is to hold off on this trip until you are 21. Seriously.

stay in manhattan and adjust your budget to pay a bit more in bigger cities, and plan on finding very cheap accomodations in smaller places (camping for instance). most places in the US you can pay around 50 bucks for a motel room for 2 people, camping in state and national parks is generally around $15 a night. you can buy a tent at walmart for $30 that will last your whole trip.

your budget of $100 a day is fine and makes sense for most of the US, but for nyc plan on spending more than that and really enjoying the city.

I know WTF? I lived in one of the worse areas of Harlem for 2 years (I saw a body being disposed of late one night) and you guys are exaggerating. In fact Im moving back there I liked it so much.

There are plenty of places to stay in Harlem which would be totally safe for visitors.
