Anyone know the hotel...
 
I think it's in midtown, that has a shared bath situation. I have heard there is a nice hotel (close to stuff) that is safe and clean. I cannot remember the name of this place but is suppose to be very affordable. I am a male and will not be traveling with my wife on this trip. Don't want to spend a lot of money. Any info is very appreciated.

It would be interesting if you told us what city you're talking about - or will a shared bath situation in ANY US midtown do?

xyz - Your sarcasm is unnecessary. <BR> <BR>Ken - From the use of the word "midtown", I am assuming you are talking about New York City. The hotel you are referring to is probably The Habitat Hotel - in the high 50's just east of Fifth Avenue. About $75.00 for a shared bath single.

It may also be the Warwick, which is in the high 40's just south of the Habitat and priced about the same or a few dollars cheaper. Having recently tried a shared bath hotel for the first time I was pleasantly surprised and will continue to seek them out when traveling alone, although I still find it far more convenient to have a private bath when sharing a room with a companion.

Hmmm, the Warwick has shared baths? I've stayed there several times (great location and feels safe(!)), but my room has always had a bath in it. I suppose one has options...

Thanks abc & Owen. You've helped a lot.

Hello - we are not psychic. This is a United States forum not New York. Personally I thought you were talking <BR>about Atlanta's Midtown. There has been quite a bit of info on it in the last several months. I know of several other big cities which also have "Midtowns". <BR>

The Warwick is located on 6th Avenue and 54th Street. It does not have shared baths, and the price is considerably more than $75.00 a night.

I was mistaken... it's the Pickwick Arms, not the Warwick. The Pickwick is near 52nd and 2nd.
