I stayed at the Hampton Inn Manhattan-Seaport-Financial District, 320
Pearl St, New York, NY 10038, a few years ago when my son was born and
the hospital found him too cute to let go right away. I found it
inexpensive and very comfortable. Please take this recommendation with
a grain of salt though because making the transition to being a parent
apparently wreaks havoc on one's judgement.
