I cannot recommend this particular place highly enough. $70/ night for a huge room with attached bathroom (awesome shower head with great pressure and plenty of hot water). It was very private (the only room on the lower level of the house) in a nice, quiet neighborhood and was a 5 block walk from the (free) Staten Island ferry. There was a coffee maker, a fridge and microwave in the room. The fridge was stocked with snacks. They let us park our car in their driveway and had great recommendations for dining close by. There was a subway map and ferry schedule on the wall of the room so we could plan our day before we left the room. Elle also had a wide selection of NYC maps and guides in the room. The bed was a futon, as it mentions in some of the reviews, but with a real mattress that was good and firm and slept great! Nice sheets too. The price definitely made a three night stay in NYC doable on a budget and this was a case of you get way more than you pay for!
