You're right, I seem to recall that it costs $90/night in mid-town Manhattan to be homeless.

That was pre-911. Nowadays, $90 a night will at least get you double occupancy on a steam grate.

I had a very similar room at the Chicago, Michigan Ave. Shmarriot. $140/night. There was a large convention going on and that was the only room our travel agency could find. I shudder to think of what a cheap room in the area would have been like.

The lobby-bar was very nice and I spent as much time there as possible.
