Arriving 11/8 and checking out 11/10. Never been to the Javits Center before. The W is booked. Where should I stay that is walkable to the convention?
forget walkable if you are from out of town...
stay at the Thompson, Lower East Side...you will get a real taste of NYC - stay out of mid town unless you want to be around tourists and the other 300,000 people in town for other conventions and groups of asians with $5000 cameras neck.
the Thompson is very cool and not that bad in price. The Setai is also very nice.
