The hostel was amazing, probably the best one I've stayed at in years. I just needed a place to stay for the night since I was working late. The rooms were clean and comfortable. I was up early in the morning and when I was sitting down and having my coffee, the person working the front desk came in and sat down and talked with me. It was very friendly and very warm. It's centrally located and I'll definitely stay again if I need to stay late in nottingham!

The staff at the hostel were extremely friendly and very welcoming! They ensured our room was in top condition, we were able to do our washing and provided maps and tips on places we should go around Nottingham. The kitchen was very basic which could be improved with more cooking facility but otherwise good. The entire hostel only had two showers and toilets which was a but difficult.

The hostel was very clean and the staff very friendly. The room was central, clean and confortable. I would leave the best of comments. However something happened that really made me change my mind.I was leaving in the morning the receptionist told me to leave my suitcase in the room and he will move it to the reception once he is up. I came back. My possesions were stolen. it was nothing left apart from some books and my sleeping gown. No parfums, contact lenses, glasses, all cosmetics.

The hostel is small but really friendly. It's more like a family hotel. You can make friends with the staff if you like. You can eat the food in the fridge. The only disadvantage is when I was there, the hostel was decorating. Absolutely an excellent hostel.

Great location in the city centre with helpful staff, fresh-smelling sheets and reliable wi-fi. The kitchen is well-equipped and the bathroom is very clean.

The hostel is well located, easy access to the local pubs, restaurants and it is not far from the castle. Very nice and helpful staff, they made my stay really enjoyable. It would need some redecorating done to give some character to the place. Good for the people who are not too demanding.

The guy who is running the place is super nice and went out of his way to help me out in more ways than one! Unfortunately he left my room open for one day, but it\'s cool cuz no one there means evil. I would stay there again and the guy who runs it will make your experience well worth the time. I recommend it! Thanks guy and Adam! Won\'t forget you!

I recommend this hostel for students and busy travelers. I should specifically thank Hostel incharge at that time Mr. Eric for the hospitality provided to me. This Hostel is safe, homely and the best for 1st time visitors of Nottingham. The Hostel is in center of the city.

The location is really good. The staff are really friendly though not local. They don't have door card but only keys. Tiny hostel but quite cozy. No breakfast included makes it a little expensive.
