Here's what it looks like in Illustrator:

seriously :) if it's 16x16 just use the pencil tool and draw it in photoshop!
At this size you're designing pixels.
Even pixel snap and resizing won't help you with this! If you need the logo this small you need to change the design and draw it by hand anyway this shouldn't take that long :)
An alternate technique is to just draw, then export to a decently high-resolution file which is a multiple of the desired pixel resolution (288 or 576 ppi), then reduce the pixel file to the proper resolution in PhotoShop using Bicubic Sharper (Best for Reduction).
I think you have to design these icons using a pixel-snap grid. You have to set the grid (and units) and the document settings. Try to follow this -old- article: petshopboxstudio.com/blog/articles/how-to-prepare-illustrator-for-pixel-perfection/
