We did the day for very little money. The ferry is free. The subway cost 7 dollars for 4 rides. What's nice is that when you get on the wrong train, you can get off at the next stop and jump on the right one. Eat a slice of pizza or a stuff from a vendor. We drove over from PA and the Lincoln Tunnel was 8 dollars. Parked 2 blocks from Times Square and that cost the most at 34 dollars plus tip.

Thanks - I guess it's the room rate that's the tough part.

Yes, that is true. A few years ago I stayed in the Milford Plaza Hotel. 2 blocks from Times Square and near many of the theaters for 199.00 a night. The rooms are small and older, but that was a good deal for the location.
