Decent rooms for a nice price. Hotel is a 30 minute walk from the old city center. Breakfast was good, staff was friendly. Beds were okay, rooms had airconditioning, which was quite handy as the heating in the bathroom couldn’t be put down.

The worst experience

Reviewed By Wija05

Reservation made through booking.com was cancelled by the hotel a day before arrival, saying that hotel was ,,overbooked”. Since there was an event in Riga on that day, to find another hotel at adequate price was impossible. Spoiled trip.

Short break

Reviewed By Fran R

We came here on a short budget break and this hotel came in under our budget, it seemed to be mainly occupied by contractors. It's situated outside the old town so we had decided to use the trams out the back of the hotel to commute in. However we could not decipher the Latvian on the tram sign so used taxis instead. We downloaded the BOLT app and found the service very cheap and quick. We had a room on the ground floor just down from reception, it contained a double and a single bed. TV on the wall a table with 2 chairs, wardrobe and bedside tables. The mattresses where a bit on the hard side and the double bed had 2 single duvets. The ensuite had a hip bath with shower over, the water was always hot and the shower powerful. The rooms and the hotel were very clean though the front steps were starting to crumble the facade on the whole looked tidy. Outside was two undercover areas for smokers and just behind the reception/shop was a kitchenette for guests use. The hotel staff were friendly and booked a taxi for us on the first day as we were struggling with the app. Not much English was spoken but we don't speak any Latvian so can't complain. Close by were 2 restaurants no more than 6 minutes walk from the hotel and a Maxima supermarket the same distance which came in handy. When you leave the hotel to sight see there is a basket at reception where you leave your room key.

WARNING THE HOTEL LOOKS NOTHING LIKE THE PICTURES ON TRIP ADVISOR

Reviewed By Andrewb1984

Good points: Free parking thats all that we liked. Bad points: This is probably the dirtyest run down hotel i have stayed in in 30 countries and 35 years! The receptionist spoke No English. Dirty hotel needs a complete renovation al the walls need painting carpets replaced. 2 out of the 4 lights in the bathroom where out. look's absolutley nothing like the pictures on booking.com cheap and old furniture falling to peices needed replacing years ago. towels dirty/stained and worn. need replacing. Breakfast was rubbish it was all served at your table so you couldnt go for more juice coffee etc. The hotel did not get me gluten free bread in as i requested. probably because the owner of the hotel cant read English. or latvian for that mater as i translated my message. There where more ants at breakfast than humans, there was only myself and my dad in the breakfast room (i wonder why?). when we mentioned the ants the owner/ receptionist gestured that the ants where there because of the plants. I mean its not rocket science is it get rid of the darn plants! There are several steps to the reception so not suitable for disabled guests not that you would want to stay here anyway. The "hotel" looks like it has not been touched since the soviet era. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

PROFESSIONAL THIEVES WITH NO SHAME ON THEIR FACES

Reviewed By retamal1985

They gave me a room right where the reception is, and the noises were infinite: people doing check-ins, the receptionist talking, the computer keyboard, the payment machine ringing, etc. I paid 60 euros for this miserable deal. I went out to complain and the girl told me that she couldn't do anything because she only had a super suite left which was more expensive. I told her that I had paid 60 euros for a hotel room where I could rest the few hours I had between flights, and not for a youth hostel or shared room. She said she had no solutions. I asked for a discount for having to be treated that way and put up with all the noise, and she told me that that room had that cost... OK!!! So I said I was going back to the airport and I would spend my remaining 5 hours of sleep there, and SHE REFUSED TO REFUND ME MY MONEY!!! Really??? They are thieves and I am going to see how I can report this situation to official bodies so none else gets cheated.

My room was very small, the bed even smaller. The walls are very thin, you can hear everything. Stayed 2 nights, no cleaning tho. Location is okey, easy access to public transportation. But no shops or coffee shops around. Reception men were kind. The hotel is okey only for short stay.

Good Value for money

Reviewed By 507natalijas

It was not the best hotel in my experience. But I paid just €140 for 5 nights with breakfast in the hotel right in the city center - bargain! I don't understand why people expecting something big when they payed small price. Hot water - there is a hot water in the hotel, you just need to wait a little bit longer then usual. I even had a bath during my stay. Old furniture - Yest it is old, but it's in a good condition and it gives a bit of charm to the hotel. TV - old fashioned TV. I would advice to the hotel to invest in that part. Also I would advice to include a little kettle in each room. It's not expensive but will be very useful for guests especially during winter stays. WiFi - very bad. It didn't bothered me personally as I had an European roaming, but for other guests it could be an issue. Latvia has one of the best internet, I believe the owner can easily improve the signal with a couple more routers. Cleanliness - here I have different feelings... It feels clean in the room. But on the first night I had a few long black hairs on the top of my duvet...Diffidently not mine as I just arrived. Not the best experience... Cleaners was in my room every day, but they just changed the bins and nothing else, not even mopped the floor. I know that as my hair was always on the floor, I cleaned it my self. I am not asking to clean the room and change the bed every day, but at list please mope the floor every 2nd day. I have stayed 5 nights, and the bedding was changed on the night 4! Why? If you never change it before why to bother to change on the night before I leave? Breakfast - Herring for breakfast? seriously? Is it Latvian thing? Breakfast was OK, remember the price what I paid. For this price is OK. I very enjoyed the pancakes every morning and fruits. Location - ideal!!! It is in the city center. Within walking distance to the local transport, shopping centers, cafes, restaurants, local attractions etc. And it is a quite place in the same time. Overall - hotel is good and comfortable. Yes, it could be better. Will I be back? probably, yes, as being a solo female traveler, I felt safe in this place.
