Can't afford the Plaza? Check into the City Club Hotel. The hotel is currently offering rates of $185 on Quikbook.com. (What is up with Quikbook and insanely cheap NYC prices?)

We did some searching and found a room there available this weekend, March 7 and 8th for that rate along with a free pass to the nearby New York Sports Club gym.

However, it is for the tiniest room category in the hotel--"One person max" says the description--and it comes with a full bed. A queen luxe room bumps up to $245 and a king luxe bumps to $295.

If you can split with a friend, the luxe double double is going for $345 which is $172.50 per person, which brings us back under $200 again. Circle completed!

We stayed at the City Club in March 2006 and we got a great spell of warm weather much like NYC is having right now.

The rooms are tiny and the views are awful but it's a Jeff Klein property. The decor is hip, the location central and the WiFi free. Plus Daniel Bouloud's DB Bistro is on the first floor. Mmmm....
