Leaving an anonymous review without any comments does not help us improve the hostel. If we don't know what room you were in, or what your thoughts are about the Arthouse, we can't interpret a simple rating. After your next stay in a hotel or backpackers, please help them by providing more info. And please email us directly so we can improve.

Yes, we do have stairs and no lift. All of our private rooms are up 1 flight of stairs. We do try to make that clear in the room descriptions. It is a good thing that you point this out so that people have a better understanding of the Arthouse, and thanks for the great rating!

Just so everyone knows, this guy meant 'manager' and that would be me. If anyone is rude and arrogant and scares female staff then I will not let them stay - even if they have paid. Having a booking or even paying does not give anyone the right to be a prick. All guests, especially females, need to feel safe and secure at the Arthouse, and I will not apologise for refusing someone to stay - if they scare the female staff, what will they do to guests?

Thanks so much for the rating and lovely compliments.

Thanks for staying. Can I respectfully suggest that if you have any issues that you raise them with the property? An anonymous bad rating does not help anyone.

Thanks for taking the time to rate us.

Anonymous review? What courage you have. Our staff and other guests disagree with you wholeheartedly. Although we are in agreement with you on one point - we are also glad you checked out, and very happy that you vow never to return. Good luck in life and travels.

Thanks so much for the great rating. We really appreciate it.

Thanks so much for the great comments. It all really helps guests get an accurate picture of what to expect.

Many thanks for taking the time to rate and review us.

A 10 out of 10 is awesome thanks!

Thanks so much for the perfect rating. We do appreciate it! :-)

Wow. Thanks so much for that.

Thanks so much for the perfect rating!

Thanks so much for taking the time to rate and review us, even though we would prefer it to be a higher rating! :-) Just so everyone knows, we are a backpacker hostel, not a cheap hotel. So please arrive at the Arthouse with accurate expectations of excellent friendly service, great fellow guests, lots of information, but basic accommodation.

Thanks so much for the comments on cleanliness! And my own personal comments - it is very easy to help when I love what I do and 'work for' lovely people (you, our guests!). Much appreciated.

Thanks for leaving a comprehensive review. We do have ear plugs at reception for FREE. And I will mention the FREE WiFi too! :-) Thanks for staying, and safe travels. 포괄적 인 리뷰를 남겨 주셔서 감사합니다. 리셉션에는 무료로 귀마개가 있습니다. 그리고 나는 또한 자유로운 WiFi를 언급 할 것이다! :-) 머물고, 안전한 여행에 감사드립니다.

To anyone reading this - we are a backpacker hostel, we are not a cheap hotel or cottage/cabin (and good luck finding comparable prices). If you stay with us you should judge us as a backpacker hostel. Punishing us because you wanted a hotel is not fair, and making up stories to make yourself feel better is not fair. Especially, leaving an anonymous bad review does not help in any way. And leading your title with the comment 'Never stay here' should make you feel ashamed. 'Disappointing stay' is fair enough from your perspective, but an anonymous direction to others to avoid our hostel is just plain amoral - who are you to be judge and jury in this life?

Many thanks for taking the time to rate us.

Thanks for rating us. It does help.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a comprehensive review. Your opinion is very balanced and we appreciate that you give the next guest an accurate impression. I will just mention here that the WiFi is excellent and totally FREE! :-)

Many thanks! Your input really helps future guests get an accurate impression of the Arthouse. We are glad you enjoyed your stay, and enjoyed the FREE WiFi.

Thanks so much for taking the time to rate and review us. And thanks for the compliment about our location. Right near the city on the bank of the river is a great place to work too!

Thanks so much for taking the time to rate and review us. It really helps people get a good feeling of the Arthouse. We are happy that you have enjoyed your stay, and appreciated the "meeting other people" aspect of the Arthouse that we try and create.

Many thanks for taking the time to rate and review us. And thanks of course for the lovely comments.

Thanks for taking the time to rate and review us. You are always welcome, and we hope to see you next year!
