Lovely little hotel in a great spot in Riga. Curtain ans blind both broken in room but managed. Woken up at 8am on Sunday by cleaners banging around the hallway/other rooms.

This is the only place I've stayed in Riga so it's hard to compare, but it's extremely average.
Minuses include the noise from the neighborhood cats and birds in the early hours, the mediocre breakfast, and the lack of an elevator.
It's a bit far from the tourist areas, but not a problem if you use the bus or tram.
There are plenty of restaurants and supermarkets nearby, so it's convenient.

I stayed in this hotel for 2 days! The staff is very nice and will help in any situation! Breakfast is varied and delicious! Clean and smells nice! There are many shops, cafes and restaurants nearby! One drawback - no elevator! If the suitcase is heavy, it will be inconvenient to carry.

Black mold in shower and behind shower door and without a working fan the room is a health hazard. The hotel has an obnoxious smell. Health

A simple hotel in a good location, suited us very well for one night. The room was clean and spacious. There was also a fridge and working air conditioning in the room, which was helpful during the hot weather. Friendly staff. The breakfast selection was perhaps not the largest, but all the basic things were there. Our room was located next to the stairs and sounds from the stairs and stairwell could be heard in the room, but in general there was little movement in the corridor and it did not disturb much. There is no elevator in the building, so if it is important for you then keep that in mind.

This is a budget hotel and you pay for what you get. It’s very basic, poor sound proofing between rooms and very dated decor/fittings/rooms and you can’t drink the tap water. But it’s a very cheap price so it reflects this. Beds were comfortable and there’s hot water.

Located outside of the old town, but with good transport links to Old Town and station. Very 70's style but very clean. Kettle on room. Good breakfast. Some bars and restaurants near by. No lift so unsuitable for those with Mobility needs.

Think twice if you want to sleep in that hotel. First and most terryfing thing was that in our room were bedbugs. After first night I had exactly 19 bites and we had found one bedbug under sheets on our bed. We did get refund but still had to find other hotel. After return to home had to quarantine all our stuff (there is high risk you can bring them home and then there is only one option - complete disinfestation of your home). Additionally: dirty carpet on stairs and poor breakfast.

Perfectly serviceable, this budget hotels offers a no frills accommodation experience. On the up side the room faced the street and the double glazing kept the street noise at bay. The room was clean and bathroom had plentiful hot water and good pressure. Wifi worked well. Split system air conditioner did a good job at temperature control. Breakfast was okay at this price point. On the downside, the curtains were thin and on the long days struggled to keep the room dark. The building has no elevator. Access to the hotel is a dim passageway wedged between 2 restaurants. The hallways and common spaces were drab and inhabited by tatty furniture and vases. Sound suppression between rooms wasn’t fabulous. The restaurant and reception are on level one and strangely includes a pool (not swimming) hall. The hotel is a 15 minute walk to the old town. In summary the hotel is clean and safe and okay to consider on your visit to Riga.

+ Check-in and checkout were quick. The breakfast was good. Location is great. Bed was comfy. Reception open 24/7, and receptionists were friendly. - Walls are paperthin; you can hear everything from other rooms. No power outlets near beds.

I don’t know what other options are in Riga but I would never stay here again. This hotel has almost nothing to recommend. It is clean. The hotel is old. You can’t even drink the tap water. The internet service in the room is basically non existent. There are no closets i or draws to store your luggage. Btw there is also no elevator. I was not expecting a luxury hotel at this price but neither was I expecting a substandard one.

Room was clean and tidy. Tv had some good channels in English which I could watch, hotel was very cheap and for the price I can't complain. Check in was very quick, I was on the 4th floor but had no bags, so the long walk up all the stairs was just fine. I got my room for around 50GBP for the night including breakfast at the last minute.
