Hampton Inn Chelsea: Over Priced Rooms Our Fault?

Our friends at Curbed asked us to look in the mirror on this whole NYC Hampton Inn jaw dropping prices thing, so we did.

Last fall, we had no idea waking up to "Candy Shop" and sipping on the "healing power of Guava Juice" would lead us towards $350 Hampton Inns in New York City, and we still aren't sure exactly what propelled the room rates that high. Sure, we knew the Inn room rates were not low...but some rooms at $350...in November!

Upon further review, there are only two situations in which the Hampton Inn Chelsea should be charging over $350:

1. If 50 Cent himself hops out of your alarm clock to give you a personal morning concert.

2. If after quaffing down the gratis guava juice you suddenly have the strength, and energy, of ten Operating Thetan V's.

Unless one of the two above scenarios is true, we suggest you look elsewhere for your NYC hotel room, at least until Hampton drops their prices out of the stratosphere.

What do y'all think?  Did the Manhattan Hampton Inns jump the shark with their pricing?
