super central location, just a few steps from Riga Central Railway station and not far from Riga coach station either - at the railway station you also find a huge shopping centre with a supermarket and there is a really cool and rather cheap restaurant for Riga standards called "LIDO" serving you local dishes which you definitely should try - location very close to Riga Old Town - easy check-in with door codes and room key in the appartment - easy and clear communication ahead of the stay with appartment owner via messages - rooms and facilities as well as the bathroom/shower all spotless clean - there is a little kitchen with a fridge and a water kettle for the guests to use - we could leave the luggage after check-out for the rest of the day

Phenomenal value. Clean room. Easy to walk to Old Town or take a bus. I enjoyed the location, a bit more local and tons of cool buildings. Friendly staff and easy check in. Bar downstairs was a nice place to hang out. Would stay here again.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

One of the best hostels I have stayed at. Great location in the centre of Riga and close to bus and train stations. Next to that the breakfast is great and the hostel has a good balance of social activities without becoming disturbing for travellers. Great value for money and a must try when going to Riga.

Great location in Riga old town. Friendly staff, very clean, and the curtains on the bunk beds offer some privacy. Each bed has a single power outlet and a light. Tea and coffee is available at all times in the kitchen, and there are common areas with board games for chilling. A nice hostel with good value for money 🙂

Very social hostel with kind staff and equally kind other backpackers. The breakfast was great, and the hostel-organised activities such as the pubcrawl were fun too. Very nice place to meet new people with good facilities.
