NYC on a budget!

BD Hotel Group has started a chain of POD Hotels in the City.  The first was Pod51 on 51st Avenue between 1st and 2nd Avenues.  The second is Pod39 on 39th Avenue between Lexington and 34d - just 3 blocks from Grand Central.  These stylishly appointed rooms are smaller but designed to maximize the space.  Climate controlled rooms feature flat screen tvs and free wi-fi.  Pod 39 has a roof top bar with midtown views, a lounge with a fire place, couches and ping pong tables and a lobby restaurant.  Rooms include single beds, bunk beds, double and queens.  Rates range from $85 to $169 for a bunk bed room, $105 to $279   for a double and queens based on season rates.  http://www.thepodhotel.com

A sister property, The Jane, is located in the West Village at Jane Street & West Street.  Once a hotel for sailors, most of the rooms are 50 square feet like a ship's cabin with rates from $99 to $125 with a shared bath.  There are also Captains Cabins with a Queen bed and private bath for $250.   Cafe and bar in this historic property in a great neighborhood.  http://www.thejanenyc.com/
