I've not stayed in any of the listings, but did check them out for my upcoming trip. I've stayed at Hotel Stanford for years and found they are still less expensive than those listed, with pretty much the same ammenities.

We've stayed at the Casablanca numerous times loved it. While it may once have been a more budget friendly hotel, not anymore. With it's popularity has come a higher price tag. It's still a great place to stay and I'd highly recommend it but I wouldn't call it budget friendly.

We stayed at Radio City Apartments for $ 150.00 per night, but we did book 6 months in advance. I think there has been a price increase since we were there April 2007.

Radio City has a price increase every year. When we first started to stay there the studio was $99 in the winter and $110 in the "high" season. That same room is now $205 for August 2008.

I loved the Herald Square Hotel
(19 W 31st St New York, NY 10001
Phone: (212) 279-4017; Fax: (212) 643-9208).

It's right next to Macys and the Empire State building. The location is AMAZING. They are in the process of renovating the hotel -- we lucked out iwth a new room -- it was HUGE (the bathroom was bigger than my friend's studio apartment) with a flat screen TV and free HBO. Rooms are usually under $200 night.

We had two rooms @ LaQuinta first weekend in March. We loved the price, location, cheap parking, and more than adequate free breakfast. We were able to see the Empire State Building out of our window at night, all lit up. Rooms were small but not tiny. Shower was great! Would definitely stay there again. Originally planned to stay in Jersey, but the extra $50 to stay midtown was definitely worth it.

Before me and my buddies headed for Cooperstown and Hall of Fame last year, for the mid $200s (budget by NY standards), we stayed at Broadway Plaza Hotel, 1155 Broadway (at 27th Street). Large rooms by NY standards, nice staff.

We had another friend stay there with their kids, and they absolutely loved it.

Hyatt Hilton mid town from $110 if I get lucky

One time Roosevelt 3 star $80 bidding Priceline.

betterbidding.com for winning bids but awesome value.

No bid Parksavoyhotel.com on the Park nice econo

Chelsealodge.com good price point also

starhotelny.com more of a hostel but a cute Dali vibe.

I went to NYC last summer and we stayed at Hotel Mela (on 7th ave) It was approx. $200 a night, but it was a very quiet hotel and well worth the money. The rooms were extremely clean and the staff was very friendly. There was a restaurant right next door to the hotel and it was very tasty. The location was a good location if you want to visit Times Square and walk around the city.

Skyline Hotel. We stayed in an executive king with seating area, but I know their small twins are very reasonable.
They had the most comfy bed I have ever slept on!!!!!

I'm a little amused by these definitions of budget! I just checked some of the listings here for my upcoming trip, but looks like I'll be back at the Jane - http://thejanenyc.com/ Have to share a bathroom, but for $99/night practically in the Hudson River just north of 12th St. the location is great. Nice little breakfast place just down the street if the onsite cafe is too expensive, and straight shot in from JFK.
