DO NOT STAY IN TIMES SQUARE

Visit Times Square but do not stay in a Hotel there. The places I listed above are where you should look for Hotel's or Airbnb's when visiting NYC. I live in NYC so just trust me.

Everywhere pretty much takes card so you really don't need to bring a lot of cash. If thats just what you like to do then go for it, pay cash. There are cash machines EVERYWHERE.

You want more recommendations then let me know
