View Full Version : Place to crash for Big Ass Bash

<p>I'm looking for a place to stay Friday night (23rd) after the Big Ass Bash. Stugots messaged me a few hotels, most around two bills which seems like a waste because I'll only be there for a few hours. Hotel Pennsylvania seems like the cheapest right now and it's next to Penn Station.</p><p>I'd like to stay either near Penn Station or the Hard Rock.</p><p>Since I haven't been to NYC since I was a child, how hard (and long) is it to get from say Penn Station to 111 West 57th?</p><p>Traveling alone is gonna be weird.&nbsp;</p>

<p>there is a new hotel in Ny called &quot; The Pod&quot; Its pretty nice. I havent stayed there but seen pictures and watched a special on tv about it. Its suppose to be affordable, very modern Nyish artsy, and most important cheap. I think its $89 for a room with a bathroom in the hallway for 4 rooms to share (sounds wierd but they showed it and it was real nice) but for $10 or $20 more you cna get a room with a private bathroom and shower. Every room comes with a ipod docking station. It loks cool.</p><p>Here is the link. Dont ask why its not pod hotel or something dot com but good luck and let us know how it is.</p><p><a href="http://www.pickwickarms.com/">http://www.pickwickarms.com/</a></p>

<p>i never heard of it. seems cool.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>fallon, from the hotel penn, you can get to anywhere in the city in about 15 mins. every train is at penn station. The N, R and W go to 57th st and you come out about a block from the studio. when you are here, you can always call me if you are lost. I might be off that day and would try to meet you for lunch, if you want.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>also, check out <a href="http://www.hopstop.com/">hopstop.com</a> for train directions.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>fixed the link.&nbsp;</p>

<strong><font color="#000080">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I have stayed at the Pickwick Arms many, many times &amp; it was&nbsp;fine &amp; very cheap, like $49 a nite to sleep in what amounted to a non-denominational YMCA. So now the price is almost doubled w/ the name change, but it's still among the least expensive places you're gonna find.</font></strong>

just go the the ER after the party.&nbsp; the one fezzie went to for his heart attack was nice and real close to the studio.&nbsp; they&nbsp;have warm beds and clean sheets&nbsp;with nurses that wash your sack!&nbsp; breakfast in bed as well as cable tv.&nbsp; for me it only a fifty dollar co-pay

<p>The beauty of mid-town Manhattan is that it's layed out like a numbered grid.&nbsp; It's just about impossible to get lost.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><img src="http://images.travelnow.com/hotels/NYC_DINN.map.gif" border="0" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>You can catch a subway to Columbus Circle (the dark circle on the lower left hand corner of Central Park in the above pic) and the boys' studio is a short walk from there. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>I'm probably in need of a place to crash too... And Fallon, if you take the F train and get out at the NW corner of 57th and 6th, all you do is go around a corner and you're right at the XM studio ((which, is wonderful when the weather is ridiculously cold)).</p><p>I go from Penn Station to the XM studio 3 days a week, I go down 7th for a block, then go down 34th to go to the subway at the corner of 34th and 6th.&nbsp; Take the F train, its the 3rd stop, and it couldn't be easier.&nbsp;</p>

Cancellation policies for most hotels are 24/48 hours.&nbsp; But if you book online through a place like hotwire, priceline, etc. - sometimes they are &quot;special&quot; internet rates that are prepaid and cannot cancel
