Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was mixed. The rooms were small for two people, and there were loud and disruptive guests causing disturbances until late at night. On the bright side, the service was friendly and attentive to toddlers. The location was convenient, close to a tram stop and surrounded by diverse cultures. The dining options were basic but sufficient, although breakfast was an additional cost.
The hotel is situated in a convenient location near the city center, just a short tram ride away. The rooms, while relatively small, come at an extra cost if you want to stay longer than just for the night. Despite some recent smoking smells and poor sound isolation, the rooms offer a place to rest. The service can be a mixed experience, with rude responses from the front desk but friendly help with booking taxis. The area around the hotel is a bit rough, leading to noise at night, yet the proximity to a tram stop makes it easy to access the city center. Dinner options are basic and come at an additional charge, but the breakfast selection is adequate. The facilities provide a decent stay, making it suitable for travelers looking for a budget-friendly option in Riga.
My stay at this hotel was quite mixed. The rooms, although neat and tidy, were initially cold and took a couple of hours to warm up by the batteries. There was also a lingering cigarette smell. However, for the price, they were perfect in terms of comfort and cleanliness.
The hotel had a mix of positive and negative aspects. The rooms were suitable for our needs, but unfortunately, we encountered disruptive guests late into the night. The service was accommodating, although it could have improved some aspects easily. The location offered a diverse cultural experience alongside conveniences such as being close to public transportation. The dining options were somewhat limited and could benefit from more variety. Overall, the stay had its ups and downs.
The hotel I stayed at was simple but nice, with fresh and clean rooms, though a bit small. The sound isolation wasn't great as we could hear noises from neighboring rooms. The service was great and very helpful; the staff was welcoming, friendly, and attentive to young guests. The location was not walking distance from the center but only a few tram stops away, near some run-down buildings and not far from the bus and railway stations. The dining experience was basic but adequate, with some traditional Marche products available for an extra fee.
The hotel is conveniently located, just a 20-minute walk from Oldtown. The rooms are very tidy but on the smaller side. Unfortunately, there were some loud and disruptive guests during my stay.
The hotel was easy to find and suitable for a stop-over, but there were some disturbances from snoring in the room. The manager was attentive to mask-wearing even when unnecessary, and the lack of soundproofing caused disturbances from loud neighboring guests. However, the friendliness of the staff and their proficiency in English stood out.
Despite some noise from the street and issues with the room temperature, my stay at the hotel was quite pleasant thanks to a helpful and patient staff. The location, though a bit noisy and distant from the city center, was in a calm neighborhood with easy tram access. While the dining options were pricey and limited, the complimentary bread was a nice touch.
