Planning a trip to NYC in December, but we don’t know what area to stay or where to stay. Recommendations appreciated. Budget friendly!

Not being a dick and trying to manage your expectations, but good luck.
I'd recommend looking at Airbnb or VRBO and not a hotel.

I'm going in mid december and looking for hotels as well, and i can't find anything decent for under $300/nt unless i don't want to stay in Manhatten.

There is a Hilton Garden Inn across the East River in Long Island City, Queens. I have stayed there several times when I didn’t want to pay Manhattan prices. It is only a few years old and located 1/2 block from the Queens Plaza subway station where you can take the E train and be in Manhattan in 10 minutes. Check your dates on the Hilton site. I’m thinking it would be less than $200/night during most of December.
You can access this hotel easily from JFK (Airtrain from terminal to Jamaica where you connect with NYC subway and take E to Queens Plaza) and LGA (Laguardia Link bus to Jackson Heights/Roosevelt Ave Station and take E to Queens Plaza). Using the subway for airport transfers saves a ton of money. Newark is a different story.

The wife and I stayed at the Park Lane Hotel right across from Central Park not too long ago.
For the kind of hotel it was, I thought it was a pretty good price performer.
December will be much more expensive though, no matter what hotels you're looking at.

Check rates at Hotel Beacon in UWS. This is our go to (actually here now for Thanksgiving). You can get a large suite for the same price as a normal hotel room in Midtown, 5-10 min walk to Natural History Museum / Central Park & you’re next to the 72nd St station which has express service to Times Square.

Give the Lexington a shot. It is usually cheaper than most. Plus you get Mariott points.

I'm currently sitting in the living room of our Kimberly hotel room. It's an all suite hotel, fantastic location and incredible accommodations including a covered rooftop bar. We got it for $290/night. By far the cheapest 2 room suit you can find. Adjustable beds, heated floors in the bathroom. We won't stay anywhere else from now on.

I stayed at the Paper Factory Hotel in Long Island Queens and it was pretty reasonable ($170/nt). It is across from the subway station and I believe 2 stops from Manhattan.

I'm a Hilton Honors Diamond member, but even before that I would stay at the Hampton Inn Times Square North. It is a good location in Manhattan, near the subway, but still able to walk to Times Square. It is usually a bit cheaper than boutique hotel options in NYC.
