Note from David Randell:

We booked with the Pioneer Hotel in Little Italy; rates much cheaper and there is availability, e.g. double with private facilities for $89-$99 including tax! It may be a bit too basic, but the on-line reviews were OK - i.e. clean rooms, seemed a relatively safe area and apparently happy customers.
I (Ernie) haven't checked it out myself, but I would say that this is a somewhat grungier area than most of the other listings, but, as David says, it should be quite safe.
