Matt, yeah, health is of course of paramount importance. What NYC hotels should we avoid, sounds like you have had a bad experience in NYC. Let's make visits as safe/comfortable as possible for out-of-town visitors, eh, please share with us your bad-hotel list.

The Chelsea is where Sid killed Nancy. (Maybe, you can stay in the very room where it happened and vlog any ghosts you encounter.) The Chelsea is an old hotel so if you like a somewhat "antique" environment, stay there. Actually, compared to other NYC Hotels, it is rather reasonably priced.

Lots of folks travel to/from the int'l airports (JFK and EWR) on the cheap and survive it. and then where I will stay, I also have trouble driving in big cities, so cabs and or buses or trains has got to be the only option, due to me only being able to drive on the left hand side of the road. So any ideas. There is absolutely no reason to rent a car, put that thought out of your mind. Public transport will get you around just fine. Yahoo!
