A money-saving suggestion for the slightly more adventurous
[In reply to]

Can't Post

I haven't checked specifics, but I'm pretty sure the hotels in Queens and Brooklyn are much cheaper than Manhattan hotels. If you don't mind spending slightly more time traveling to/from the Manhattan events, you could save quite a bit of money, and get to see other parts of the city. And Queens has a lot of excellent restaurants with cuisines from all over the world. Just a thought.
"I deemed it the worst part of all my journey, the road back, watching him day and night, making him walk before me with a halter on his neck, gagged, until he was tamed by lack of drink and food, driving him ever towards Mirkwood."
