Good value for money. In the old town, perfect position. Really clean, nice design and new furniture. Payment (and rather expensive) parking close to the hotel. We recommend to park close to the river (cheaper, and free during the night). |

Very good location, the owner is a nice guy. Maybe because it was low season there was nobody in the reception, and each guess has a key for the front door, but even tough I did not fell unsafe at all. |

The hostel is located in the very center of the old Riga. On the first floow there is a cafe/bar working actually all the time. Very pleasant staff! Nobody was forcing to leave "exactly" at 12:00am ". We even did get a breakfast at 01:00pm. There is a convinient parking 15 meters just accross the street. (The entire night costs around 4 EUR). |

Hotel staff great. Location is fantastic! The rooms look great and good facilities. Wifi did not work in all the rooms. We changed rooms to a room where the wifi worked. Our heater did not work but the staff gave us a portable heater instead. The showers are not hot enough and a bit smelly. |

Great location, nice rooms The breakfast time, we booked out just before 8 and although the cafe that breakfast was served in was open, they would not serve us because breakfast does not start until 8:00am. Staff seemed new and clueless. |

Location, price, quality, cleanness and great facilities. The guy that recieved me was so short for everything, my room's tv had no antena cable and the remote had no batteries, when I mentioned that to him he just said the tv wans't working so I didn't have to worry, but it was included in the price and I was obviously paying for it in the total price.. But don't let this make you feel you won't go here, it's a great located budget hostel. |

better than expected and everything went fine our room was just above the restaurant and during the Sat-Sun night the noise was awful. Also the wooden door of the bar desk made a big banging during the night. |

The friendliness of the relatively very young staff of the hostel. The excellent selection and price for food othre than breakfast. The way that the managmeent -- even in front of the guests -- treated the staff in an essentially unprofessional manner. Also, the breakfast could have been much, much more consistent in amount and quality. Finally, I wanted to transfer money from an online payment service (like Paypal) directly into the hostel's account, but I was confronted very rudely by the manager. |

Rapporto qualità/prezzo ai massimi livelli. Pulizia e design ottimi, stanze grandi e comode. Situato nella città vecchia e a non più di 15/20 minuti a piedi dalla stazione degli autobus e dei treni. Consigliatissimo! |

Прекрасное месторасположение, дружелюбный персонал, уютные номера, при закрытых окнах не слышно шума города. Предупреждать вновь прибывших в 5 утра жильцов, что б не орали...ведь некоторые в это время спят!!! |

De kamer was zeer mooi maar ook het hotel was netjes en verzorgd. De bar die jammer genoeg niet open was, is wellicht een van de mooiste die we ooit gezien hebben. De locatie is super! Midden in de stad, niet ver van de grootste markt van Europa, het station en het nieuwe als oude gedeelte. Alles was okay! |
