Andrew Hickey -- Oyster Locals Reporter
My name is Andrew Hickey and I am obsessed with travel. Constantly on the look out for a great deal to…well anywhere, I have visited numerous destinations around this planet and never get sick of traveling. The “bug” bit me at a young age and the effects have just gotten worse each year! I'm also known as The Brooklyn Nomad.

My Favorite Hotels

Library Hotel
- Pearls: Rating: 3.5 Pearls
- Location: Midtown East, Manhattan
- Price: $440/night
A homey, 60-room, literary-themed boutique, located down the block from New York's famous Public Library, and among Midtown East's corporate skyscrapers. It's one of New York's best values, mostly because of the perks: an upscale bistro on the ground floor, a lively bar on the penthouse floor, free Wi-Fi, free gym passes, and free daily pastries, wine, and cheese.
