With the Empire State Building and the Statue of Liberty, the New York skyline offers so much promise when it comes to tourists who are visiting New York for their ideal New York City vacation. New York is a city that contains a couple of the greatest baseball teams (New York Mets and the New York Yankees). The mode of transportation is either through cab or through the New York subway. However, New York is also known to be one of the most expensive cities in the United States, so it's extremely important to take advantage of vacation deals.

Here's a trick question: Where can you find the cheapest hotels in New York?

Answer: The cheap hotels in New York aren't hotels. The cheapest places to stay are actually hostels.

If you want to get the best deals out of your New York City vacation, you can't stay at some hotel like the Waldorf. Consider staying at a hostel.

However, some people are certainly not meant for hostels. Hostels are less private and require people to share rooms with absolute strangers. If you have a family, you're most likely not going to choose a hostel.

However, if you're okay with having a low key spot to rest at, a hostel may be the best option. After all, during your New York City vacation, you don't want to stay cooped up in your room? It's not like you'll bespending your entire New York City vacation for the hotel.
