The New York Spirit Retreats offers a unique blend of affordability and hospitality in the heart of Manhattan, boasting an impressive average rating of 4.7/5 from 100 reviews. Guests frequently praise the welcoming atmosphere and the kindness of staff, particularly Sunny, who is noted for his exceptional hospitality and support (mentioned in nearly every positive review). The location is a major highlight, just minutes from Penn Station and major attractions. However, guests should be aware that the rooms are small and there are shared bathrooms, which some reviewers found to be a point of contention. Noise can also be an issue, as thin walls allow sounds from neighboring rooms to seep through, particularly for light sleepers. While breakfast is well-received, consisting of fresh fruits and baked goods, some guests reported that bathroom facilities need improvement. Overall, this retreat suits solo travelers looking for a budget-friendly and community-oriented environment, with the understanding that space and privacy may be limited.
