I just ran a week of dates in October in a hotel search. Came up with mostly $300, but several - Hotel 17 in the Village had $125 listed; Howard Johnson in Queens - $115; and a West Side Inn & Hostel (shared bathroom, but has a/c and internet!) is $92. You can find decent places in the $200+ range, but the average is over $300. It isn't cheap to stay in Manhattan. This is looking at sites that are not hotels.com or priceline.com or any of the other discount sites. Those might be better.

I did a recent search too for another member of this forum and found nothing under $100 but hostels.
In terms of hostels, as I recall correctly, Big Apple Hostel came up to be a winner all around...
