This year we have a trip planned to visit NYC for a few days in August and I'm beside myself excited to be in the city and show Eric around (it's been over 3 years since I was there.) Since I use to live in the city I've never done much research on accomodations in Manhattan until now - wow are there a lot of options on place to stay!!! I started by looking at my favorite New Yorker blogger (A Cup of Jo) that has a great post with 'five great hotels' in her NYC Guide. I also checked out hotels.com, airbnb.com, vrbo.com, tripadvisor.com, and asked friends..... and started to just feel completely overwhelmed with all the options out there. Do you have a favorite place to stay in NYC that you would recommend?
