Ciaran, Ireland

It was my first time there, and i really enjoyed the time there. The Location is perfect, in the old town, you can go wherever you wanna by foot and don´t need long, also the bus and train station are next to the hostel. The staff was incredible friendly, nice and helpful all the time. The Kitchen was small, but enough to have a nice meal or breakfast, with some free tee or coffee. The bathroom was clean and they have a washing machine, something to appreciate if you are stayin long :)

“nice hostel in Riga near St. Peter's Church”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Single Bed in 4-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 1 night
눉for the price everything seems ok :)
눇This hostel is literally just a few meters away from St. Peter's Church which is one of the prime attractions in Riga. It won't even take a minute to reach it. The Old City of Riga is quite small and could be explored in about an hour or two then you'd feel like you've already covered much. Beside the hostel are a number of cafe and restaurants with more dining establishments near the church and all around the old town. There are also plenty of souvenir and jewelry shops including those that sell authentic amber jewelry. Prices in Riga are relatively cheaper compared to most of Europe especially if compared to neighboring Scandinavia where prices are much higher. Some restaurants though can be a bit too pricey for the quality of food they serve. Back to the hostel, I stayed in a 4-bed dorm room with two bunk beds. The room was spacious enough and had a sink for washing. The common toilets were also big and clean. The kitchen however had very limited space and people could hardly sit down to enjoy a cup of coffee/tea. This isn't much of a problem for me though. The reception lady was very friendly and helpful. I requested for late check out since my flight departs in the evening and she only charged me a small amount. If you're taking bus no. 222 to the airport, it only takes about 5 minutes to walk from the hostel to the bus stop. :)

“Location great, comfort sucks!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Solo traveler
- • Single Bed in 4-Bed Mixed Dormitory Room
- • Stayed 4 nights
눉There are only two chairs in an extra tiny kitchen, so guests are encouraged not to use the kitchen. There is no lounge at all. One room beside the kitchen was supposed to be a lounge - the only room in the hostel that egresses into the kitchen! However the owner transformed it into dormitory, just to earn more money, by drastically decreasing comfort. On the top of that, there are only 3 BATHROOMS for 41 beds...The worst is that, there are no separate toilets. They just crammed the venue with so many dorm rooms, which are not equipped by adequate facilities.
눇It's just in the heart of the old town. Front desk agents are very helpful, especially Ines, who is an owner's relative.
