Interfaith Retreats

Superb

For this money it’s the best option for short stay in NYC. Kind people, blessed atmosphere, good coffee, fruits, cookies etc. I was sleeping like a child.

Great central location. Clean facilities. Comfortable bed. Great free snacks. Friendly staff, shoutout Jeremy. The rooms are small but that was expected. I’m 6 foot and fit on the bed fine, but wouldn’t want to be any taller. The staff waking up snoring guests makes more noise than the snoring itself. I was already awake thankfully, but the knocking on the door and repeated “sir you are snoring” would’ve definitely woken me up.

1. Staff were helpful and eager to help. 2. Very good value for money. This is a place to stay and you get that. 3. Breakfast is free, and you can eat as much as you want from the things available in the kitchen anytime. 4. I asked to do an early checkout and they helped even though I had a no-refund policy. This is very much appreciated. If you are looking for a bed, hostel-wise but with privacy (you have your own room for the bed) this is what you are looking for. Recommend!

The location, fruits, and toast are good. This is a vegetarian place. They made me throw my food and mentioned that chicken was cursed or something like this. It does not look like the photos. You can even hear people's farts next to you. It's not even a 2 by 2 space; it's more like a 190 by 120.

Super friendly and accommodating staff. It’s fine for what it costs, can’t knock it for anything. Definitely not accessible if you have mobility issues.

Disappointing

Good for a short stay 2-3 days The location is easy to access The restroom are always clean It wasn’t comfortable that it is mixed genders, even though I know the rooms are small they were even smaller than expected

It was pretty Cool. Kitchen is available throughout the day. Overall nice and clean place to saty. The most important thing are the small but separate PODs which provide you complete privacy. Toilet area could be improved, in terms of space and number of toilets.

Great and welcoming vibe. Quiet and safe.

The staff was nice, they cleaned the toilets/showers, i think, a few times a day. At least it seemed like that. The room is small but it totally works out!

Interfaith Retreats was a great option for my trip - I was arriving early and needed a one-night solo stay to fill the gap of our group's reservation. It was a super short walk from the train station and the staff were all very friendly. The rooms are private and small - about the size of 1.5 twin beds - but thoughtfully designed with plenty of storage space under the bed for luggage, an adjustable lamp with a USB charger, a plug, hooks for jackets or backpacks, and they provided earplugs and towels and had a fan available to use. The pillows were actually a bit better than standard hotel pillows, which was a pleasant surprise! Each room is open to the ceiling so noise definitely travels between rooms but on the whole other guests were quiet and courteous. The temperature control was also pretty good - it was a bit on the warm side but overall comfortable. The room locks, as does access to each floor, and the keys you're provided will buzz you into the building, open both floors, and open your own room, so security was well-thought out. The bathroom was a separate room and the stalls were narrow but functional. They had apples and bananas, bagels, breads and nut butters available for breakfast or to eat anytime, which was perfect for me. There wasn't any shampoo/conditioner in the shower I used and the shower was also not in a separate room from the rooms on my floor, so it felt like I'd probably wake up other guests if I showered (I got in pretty late). A lot of the apples were also pretty bruised up, but I couldn't say if that was because of guests or not.

The location is convenient. However,

They are very helpful.
