   Well, Long Island City is a long walk from Times Square. The neighborhood is in the Borough of Queens, which is about 10 minutes from Times Square by subway. However, hotel rooms in Long Island City are a lot cheaper than in Times Square, so you will be better off staying in LIC.

   Speaking of hotel in LIC, may I recommend the link below which show a good list of hotel with rates under $130 a night.

   I hope this information is very helpful.

   Good luck

   You cannot really walk from Long Island City to Times Square best to take the subway in. You are not really gonna find a decent hotel in Times Square for that price and if you found a place for the price, trust me you are not gonna want to stay there, and you might not be safe. Get a metro card and take the subway in from where you are in LIC.
