This industry is inhumane. Please consider this before you ride them. Horses have died and pedestrians and drivers have been injured. The horses are treated as cars and not living beings that feel pain. Please look at their eyes and do the right thing by them. Contact Mayor Bloomberg and inform him how wrong this industry is to exist in NYC traffic.

All over the city and around Central Park

It's clean, it's cheap, it has wi-fi and it's close to Penn Station.

The smell of pot from across the hall and the scrum for breakfast (think British Bulldogs with bagels) can be put up with too.

I stayed there as part of my travels:

I have just read with interest your article on apartment rentals versus hotel rooms. Recently, a group of girlfriends and me travelled to New York for a few days of shopping and glamour. Rather than tripping over each other's overflowing shopping bags in our soon-to-be-purchased Louboutins, we decided to rent a apartment which would be much more spacious.

On the recommendation of a friend, we booked through an Irish site, newyorkapartments.ie, and we would all highly recommend it. We decided on a two-bed apartments in Mid Town East, which was close enough to all the designer labels we craved, but also just far enough from the hustle and bustle of Times Square to allow us to relax. The apartment was fantastic - really luxurious and, of course, spacious. Breakfast was available every morning and there was also a housekeeping service, which was great as we hadn't come all the way to New York to argue over who was to clean up! There was even a spa and aromotherapy centre - sheer bliss.

All in all, I can safely say that it had all the facilities that you would expect from a top class hotel, without the price tag and with the added bonus of that elusive (well in New York anyway!) extra space.

Depending on the type of card purchased, this pass includes admission to three, five or seven New York attractions and can save you a great deal over purchasing the attractions individually. Most major attractions are included in the card.
