Good,
Score from 30 reviews
“ Great value for the money! Sincere thanks to the receptionist for being very friendly and helpful late at night when I arrived. The room was very warm and beds are quite large (which is not common to budget hostels). There were even few lockers for the valuables in the 6-bed room. ”

The beds were comfortable and the location was pretty good. It was just a short tram-ride (Number 7) away from the center. It's a pretty basic hostel, but for the price I wasn't expecting much more. I had no problems booking online. The bathrooms were dirty and there was never toilet paper. Also, while the dormitory was heated, the bathrooms were freezing cold.

Price. You would not find other place with price of 6 euro per night for New Year time. Friendly staff. It's supposed to be a hostel but there's no hostel activities and fun. We lived on a room for 3 persons in the attic - the entrance is through the other room which is both sleeping place for 4 and kitchen - so it smells like old dirty kitchen:-( the district where it's placed is also 40-50 min walk to city centre. You choose this hostel if you really need to save money:-)

Cheap, clean, friendly staff I booked online but when I arrived they had no record of me booking there. Fortunately, there were enough empty beds so I just got a place right then and there.

1. чистое постельное белье. 2. реально дешевая цена. 1. на кухне довольно грязно. 2. в душе и коридоре зимой холодно. 3. утром невозможно попасть в хостел без ключа, ресепшена нет на месте. Итог, больше похоже на ночлежку чем на приятный студенческий хостел.

нормальное место, чтобы малобюджетно переночевать в риге. есть кухонька с чайником и микроволновкой. всё чисто. мы приехали к заселению (и даже раньше) и заселились без проблем, а вот, когда вернулись поздно вечером, то во дворе металась парочка англоязычных туристов. не понял почему, но они не могли попасть в хостел, так как двери были закрыты, а на дверях висела бумажка с номером местного мобильного телефона работника. сам работник находился в хостеле, но не на ресепшене, а этажом выше. если бы не мы (у нас был ключ), то не знаю сколько бы ещё эти туристы бегали во дворе под дождём, кстати. правда, ещё позже подъехавшие туристы всё-таки дозвонились до работника. так что рекомендую для заселения появляться в отеле днём. и ещё... у нас там почему-то очень криво работал wi-fi. кроме нас в комнате жили иностранцы, потому я не уточнял как у них с этим делом, но мне показалось, что один парень весь вечер и полночи смотрел фильмы в онлайн, уж не знаю пользовался ли он местным вайфаем. у меня он работал только для вконтакта, в остальных случаях минут через пять отказывал на длительное время. в итоге скажу, что для ночлега место отличное! цены копеешные! пешком прогуляться до центра не так уж долго (2,5 км примерно). в общем рекомендую!

Hostelis oli väga vastutulelik teenindus. Tuba oli puhas ja voodi mugav. Täpselt õige koht üksiku reisija jaoks, kellel pole midagi võõra seltskonna vastu. Tuba on suhteliselt kitsas, eriti kui kõik sealsed voodikohad on välja müüdud.

Чисто, уютно, на втором этаже отдельный туалет, отдельные душевые -очень понравилось! Вход в комнату на три кровати(узкая комната с наклонным потолком) расположен через другую комнату в которой жили люди. Полагаю, у них были испорченные продукты питания, отчего при проходе через них невыносимо пахло. Насколько им было удобно, что через них ходят жильцы комнаты другой -неизвестно, но на их месте я бы оказаться не хотела) В начале сентября было уже достаточно прохладно находиться в комнате, одеяло одно не спасало. думается нужно ставить обогреватель в такие периоды.

Отличный хостел за смешную цену, если Вы не притязательны. Его довольно легко найти. Если не сможете найти, спросите дорогу у прохожих - практически все там разговаривают на русском. В самом хостеле персонал разговаривает на русском, английском и латышском, естественно. Я останавливалась на ночь в трехместной комнате, примыкающей к четырехместной (для останавливающихся в четырехместной комнате оказалось сюрпризом, что их комната проходная - на сайте не было ничего сказано об этом неудобстве). Пастельное белье было новым. Компания собралась отличная, почти все русскоговорящие. В трехместной комнате потолок покатый - под крышей всё-таки, поэтому его легко не заметить. Wi-fi ловил только на первом этаже с ресепшеном, для гостей второго этажа единственным выходом было спускаться на первый этаж или сидеть на лестничной площадке между этажами.

A bit far away from center, but you can take the tram no 7 to get there. The 3beds room actually is connected to a 4 beds room. (you need to first pass by the 4-bed room)

Очень дешево! Есть даже Wi-Fi инет. Этот хостел стоит рассматривать только в качестве места ночлега. Спасибо администратору Тимуру! Если бы не его доброе отношение, то оставил бы плохой отзыв. Экономят на всем, даже на туалетной бумаге.
