I went in 2007 on the company dime. I was allowed to bring family with me for free on the plane, but they had to pay for their own room. 2 nights at the Hilton on Times Square was $2k.
You’re looking at $800 or more a night.
Times Square will be a grand a night.
It’s NYC. Stupid expensive. If you find something cheaper, you DON’T want to stay there. Trust me.
