Brooklyn Hotel lets you Motor inn to the Atlantic

The Atlantic Motor Inn is 1.5 miles from downtown Brooklyn, 3 miles from Manhattan, 5 miles to JFK, and 8 miles to La Guardia Airport. And it offers hotel rooms for little more than a hundred dollars.

The location & price alone should be more than enough to keep it packed to the rafters with visitors to the Big Apple looking for cheap New York hotels. But the Atlantic Motor Inn has a lot more to offer.

Things like a wall mounted flat panel LCD TV with all major channels plus HBO, pillow top mattress, spa rooms, hair dryer, writing desk and chair, and high speed wireless internet. The bed is solid and big, the mattress much more luxurious than you're likely to find at most other comparable Brooklyn hotels, and the two ornate lampshades on either side of the bed give it a rather artsy look.

A standard room with 1 King/Queen bed clocks in at $102.76 (plus tax), and a spa room goes for $146.63 (plus tax).

If you're a tourist in New York looking for a budget crash pad, you could do a lot worse than the Atlantic Motor Inn. It's just 15 minutes to Wall Street and Chinatown, 20 minutes to the Empire State Building and a short hop from there to Times Square and the other fantabuloustic (it's a word, or should be...) New York attractions.
