Manhattan hotel with skyline view
Looking for advise on a Manhattan hotel:
Hotel with a skyline view from the room
Modern and clean
Midtown location.
Max 400 USD per night including the stupid fees
Spent several hour online and couldn't find one.
Recommendations anyone?

Rates vary widely by date. $399 today could be $799 on your dates.
Any particular views you want? Residence Inn Central Park is the "highest" hotel in NYC that I am familiar with, so there should be stunning views from their higher floors

"Skyline" leaves a lot of room for interpretation. (As do "modern and clean" and "midtown" 
.)
These three are all open and have views of either the Chrysler or Empire State Building.

For a cheap skyline view, the upper floors of the Crowne Plaza Times Sq have excellent views. But it is otherwise not a great hotel. The upper floors of the IC Times Sq are about the same and it is a pretty good hotel. I've been in several other cheaper hotels with good views, like one of the Hampton Inns, Four Points, etc.
Isn't the Residence Inn Central Park closed and been closed throughout the pandemic? Was that one of the hotels that was housing homeless people?

Tons of hotels were used/are being used to house the homeless. I could not find any reference to the Residence Inn in news articles.
139 of New York City's 700 hotels are being used by the city to house homeless people who they removed from shelters to avoid COVID-19 outbreaks.The Lucerne, Belnord and Belleclaire on the Upper West Side and the Rixby, SpringHill Suites, DoubleTree, Best Western and Hampton Inn in the Garment District are among them.
