On a totally random note... I'm currently staying at The Pod Hotel in Manhattan this Memorial Day Weekend and what a great hotel! There are TWO key things about this hotel that is great. It is CHEAP and it is located in the middle of Manhattan (Click here to see a google map of the great location). What more can one ask for?
The rooms are clean and the size of a small walk-in closet. There is no private bathroom as the floors are set up in a manner reminiscent of college dorms with shared bathrooms. There is free Wi-Fi and cable TV is provided in each room. In the room, there is a bed, tiny desk, tiny sink, and a secure lock-box (large enough to hold a laptop).
The cost for a night on a Memorial Day Weekend? $124/night. On other nights, prices can be as low as $69/night.
Amazing... Definitely will be planning to stay here again in the future.
