Soldiers', Sailors', Marines', Coast Guard & Airmen's Club

• One option available to members of the armed services looking for a place to stay in the New York City area would certainly be the Soldiers', Sailors', Marines', Coast Guard & Airmen's Club. It is within walking distance of such New York locations as the Empire State Building and Grand Central Station. Unlike a traditional hotel, the club lets guests rent individual beds in its 21-room facility in order to keep rates low and serve as many people as possible. One VIP room is available to guests; it has a queen-size bed, refrigerator and coffee maker. The club itself has five floors--a common area, a kitchen and three for sleeping. Though the club does not serve meals, guests are welcome to order take-out or prepare meals in the kitchen.
