Got tickets to the Tribeca Film Festival? Or planning on skulking around downtown in the hopes of meeting a producer who'll snap up your screenplay ... but can't afford the cool, downtown hotels where most of the festvial-goers will shack up? Not to worry—hotels in other parts of town want in on the Tribeca Film Fest action, too, and one of the first out of the ranks with a discount is Desires Hotels. Both The MAve and Hotel Mela are offering up to 15% off their best available rates during the festival, April 21–May 2.
