Did you know the Jane Hotel played a part in the Titanic story?

The Jane
113 Jane Street
New York, NY 10014

wNYC said it best, the "Jane Hotel, formerly known as the American Seamen’s Friend Society Sailors’ Home and Institute, which on April 19, 1912 was the site of a memorial service for surviving sailors rescued from the Titanic". Also, the surviving crew members stayed in the Jane until the memorial took place. 

Since this hotel is located on the Hudson River, also known as the West Side Highway, it was the perfect spot for sailors to sleep when coming in from a long day! Best part, some rooms still hold bunk beds (and are around $130 in the winter = affordable).
