Penington Friends House
Penington Friends House is generally for long term residency (23 long-term residency rooms and 2 air-conditioned short stay guest rooms), but occasionally has 1-3 month options available. This adorable brownstone is RIGHT across from my apartment and the only reason I know it exists is watching all the people go in and out with luggage all the time. It’s hardly listed anywhere online but it is a little gem in NYC and just down the street from the Seafarers & International House.

Reserved for Military Personnel and their eligible dependents and spouses.
If you fall into these categories: Military Personnel of the United States and its Allies (Active Duty, Reserve, Guard, Veterans and Cadets, and members of the Police Department, Fire Department, and Emergency Medical Services), you can stay in one of the best discount NYC hotels, in a GREAT location for rates ranging from $65 (per person per night) to $160 for a VIP Room.
