Comments: The staff here was the nicest, most helpful I'd met in all my travels. The hostel is incredibly friendly, and though it's a walk from the train station, it's absolutely worth it.

Comments: Had a great stay at the Igloo. The most welcoming hostel, both by staff and long-termers, that I have been to thus far. Very genuine people! Spacious, clean bathrooms. Kitchen use is a plus. Nice warm blankets, too. Would stay here again!

Comments: facilities are amazing,even got pool table over there,also got free computer connected to internet and TV with some video dvd. staff is helpful and nice. the only unsatisfactory places were the uncomfortable doubled-deck bed,and itz very tiring to climb up that slope(mansfield road) to the hostel from city centre especially when u re shouldering a heavy backpack.

Comments: a walk away from the centre and stairs were hard to climb with our heavy bags. rooms were pretty small and the cleanliness was only average. no breakfast, the community rooms were okay but nothing special.

Comments: The staff were really awesome, helpful but not pushy like in other places! Like everyone else however, it would be cool if they put a sign on their front gate indicating entrance through here - tough to find! but otherwise really good!

Comments: The Hostel is hard to find as it has a very small door sticker to indicate where it is. That being said, the staff is more than willing to accommodate you and it is a great all around hostel.
