Fabulous architecture. We had some deal where we paid a fixed amount for a book of accomodation vouchers and stayed in Budget hotels (I think we stayed in older rooms on top floor of the Commodore which seemed pretty original to the 1920s, especailly the bathroom with metro wall tiles. It had the old fashioned heating radiators) or in student accomodation in some places, like Washington DC and St Catherines near Niagara. Fabulous trip, although at that time New York, I believe, wasn't very safe at night, so we didn't see much nightlife, but we certainly heard all the sirens.Loved the sandwich place in Grand central.<br />Susan Elliotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15210930675641383148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21554899.post-67832075126054986892016-04-02T13:49:14.534-07:002016-04-02T13:49:14.534-07:00I've found an original business card of The Co...I've found an original business card of The Commodore Hotel, Rockaway Beach, Belle Harbor, NY.
