We liked that hostel. Location is okay. Staff was friendly. Takes about 20min to walk to train / coach station but there is a free bus Mondays - Saturdays. Everything was tidy and clean. Lockers in the rooms. Would stay there again.

It's a nice place that could do with modernising.

It would be great to have a small kettle with tea and coffee sachets in the private rooms for the early mornings and late nights etc. The tv is not well positioned to watch from the bed as the tv is located above the headboard. The room was a bit cold in the night and did not know how to raise the temperature on the heater.

Really enjoyed my stay here. Everyone was super friendly, showers were clean (not sparkling, but still clean), and they really made an effort to keep things Green! However I'd caution ladies to go to the female only dorms. I was staying in the mixed dorm that was mostly full, all guys, and, well, it smelled like dude. But aside from that super pleasant stay :)

I really enjoyed everything except the weird music audible in the stairwell; no choice, agh! still, it wasn't repugnant. & that I couldn't use the computers to watch programmes - I'd depended on that - I'd happily a/ wear headphones and b/ quit after 20 m if others wanted it. I loved the kitchen etc, the hand towels, and the fact that cleaning materials are non-toxic and environmentally friendly. That's how I live and wish everyone did, it tells me the place is run by someone thoughtful.

I stayed here for one night. Igloo hostel was a nice place it was located near the centre of Nottingham. I really appreciated how sweet the staff where, they gave us a map and drew the place we were heading on the map. Beds were comfortable and it was a tidy little hostel.

Pretty good. We stayed in the Annexe which is a building across the road from the main hostel. Friendly staff, good location and nice cosy beds. Would have no problem staying here again

Thanks for the friendly welcome - Charlie on reception was so helpful and everything was great as it was last time. Other guests were polite and considerate too. We'll be back no doubt.

Good, convenient hostel. Free wifi, good kitchen, lovely staff. Small with steep stairs but that adds to the character.

I stayed in a private room across the street from the main building. Their beds were really nice. Helpful and warm staff. The street traffic sound wasn't a big deal to me. Everything was great. I miss that place!

We had a good time in it. Quite, tidy and nice. Next to the city center, about 15mints by foot, and 30mints to the rail station.

Please put a signboard so that people can easily find you. Please make sure the radiators are working to the level human beings need.

A thoroughly enjoyable stay in a top notch Nottingham city centre hostel. The owners go out of their way to be helpful and almost all amenities are close by. The beds are very comfortable and the lockers in each room with padlocks available from reception for a refundable £5 deposit certainly give peace of mind should you have any valuables. There are ample showers with an abundance of warm water and the free internet terminals/wi-fi deserves a huge thumbs up. In short comes highly recommended!

Lovely place. Unfortunately a bit far out from the centre, but not too bad. Great, friendly staff.
