Staying outside Manhattan vs. downtown hotels – which is more convenient?

After winning $4,900 from an online bet on Stake, I’m planning a 7-day trip to New York. I’ve been checking out hotels, and I’m torn between staying in Manhattan or in the outer boroughs like Brooklyn, Queens, or the Bronx. The hotels in downtown or uptown Manhattan are tiny and expensive, while the places outside Manhattan offer more space for the same budget.

My main concern is commuting. Is it worth staying outside Manhattan and taking the subway in daily? I want to explore the usual tourist spots and some hidden gems, but I’m unsure how much the commuting will cost and how convenient it will be. If anyone has stayed outside of Manhattan and commuted in, how was your experience? Any tips would be super helpful!
