Agreed. If you can get Jersey City / Hoboken / or anywhere nearby, there are a lot of transport options, and the views of Manhattan from that side of the river are spectacular.

They aren't in any of the five boroughs that are NYC https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boro..._New_York_City
including Harlem which is in the Manhattan borough.

There are loads of decent central NYC hotels which are very good value, certainly for a night. The ALoft is a good example. Ironically I had to stay at an Aloft in Brooklyn as my flight to Miami was delayed due to snow and needed a night. Only cost me around $90!

There are very few exceptions -- such as 2 apartment buildings -- often converted townhouse or a converted house -- but these are rare,
There is a special enforcement unit ts dedicated just to short term rental violations.
As to coming to NYC when the UN Special Assembly -- it is a mess traffic wise. Do not stay in a place where one would have to rely on a bus -- like NJ transit or NYC MTA. If NJ look to be near the PATH train and in NYC near a subway.

As the OP has already started an identical thread in the QR forum, and FT rules preclude cross-posting, we’ll close this derivative at this point.
