    Short term rentals 30 days or less in any of the five boroughs that make up NY are illegal, so be very careful.

    This is actually the forum for you to report bargains, not seek them. The main Travel or even Student fora might be more productive for you. :)

    As someone else mentioned they are technically illegal, but we risked it and last week stayed in a fabulous 4 bedroom penthouse apartment through Air BnB

    Why would a four bedroomed one be a bargain?
