Do you have an idea of where you'll be spending your time? You don't want to get a place where you will have to constantly travel for over an hour just to see one thing.

Also, not sure why airbnb is not ok with a buddy... or maybe not ok with THIS buddy?

These things will help us help you.

I think boys are for some reason weirded out by having to sleep in the same bed but a hotel room often will have two beds?
Airbnb might not offer that and one with two rooms is too expensive.

As boring as it is Booking.com will give you good recommendations and as Chemda said decide on an area where you will spend most of the time for such a short trip long travel into the city is not worth it.

- If you decide on Manhattan I enjoyed staying in Chelsea around Penn Station because everything is easy to reach from there.
- Otherwise Lower Manhattan below Houston St around Little Italy or up to Washington Square Park is super nice to just walk around and have food and bars but might be more expensive.

Another idea if you are a little more adventurous is to have a look at the "surprise hotel" on hotwire.com - I got some really great deals with that in the past.

Good cheap hotel in a great downtown location: The Larchmont Hotel, 27 W. 11th Street (btwn. 5th & 6th Aves.) in Greenwich Village. Rooms are clean but spartan, you have to share a bath, but the price is a steal compared to other hotels in the area, and the location is hard to beat. 5 minute walk to Washington Square Park & Houston Street. Subways at 6th Avenue.

We're staying there this weekend for $170 per night, including all those NYC taxes that they pile on. (I'll be giving free legal advice on your rights when arrested, at Peculiar Pub on Bleecker Street )
