We really enjoyed the iniqueness of our 4th floor room with its high ceilings, roominess and brick walls, perhaps original, in parts of the roon. The included breakfast was greatly appreciated, as was the helpfulness of the staff.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Love the interior and the decor! Big beautiful suite with jacuzzi and sauna. Personally I think they could improve the room by adding a comfortable armchair, and replacing the A/C with a newer and less noisy one. The ancient TV and CD player was useless for me personally, but that's OK. Very friendly and helpful staff! Breakfast was tasty, but served in a cramped space. But once you get your food you can take it outside and enjoy it in the cozy backyard, which is very nice. The location of the hotel in the old town is excellent, with lots of restaurants, bars and shops nearby.

Where did 4 star coming from? Avoid room with roof window. If you like living in a bombshelter, this is the hotel for you. No windows at all. Breakfast was not impressive and the breakfast area was tight and dense. The closet in my room was dusty on top, not cleaned for several years. Overall bad experience, but location is good.

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
I was fortunate enough to suite on the ground floor reserved for me. The room was beautiful and in the style of the town Riga itself. Art Nouveau, early 19th century. It had a private sauna and a whirlpool bathtub. The service was adequate, the breakfast tolerable(considering you,re in a small hotel in the balkans now…) So far so good. But the music they played om the terrace outside my room! 160 bpm party music starting in the afternoon and going on all evening. Not loud, and not too late, but the majority of the guests in the hotel was middle aged and above. When asked if they could change it to a softer kind, they blamed the hostel outside strangely enough. They did turn the music further down thougn.

Itching from bed

Itching from bed. Strong smell of some chemical also in rooms and hallway. Breakfast area small and very stuck. People waiting for single bread toaster 1 min/person. No space to pass by the previous person. Why not add 2nd toaster? Or remove whole toaster, so customers would actually move forward and reach the food/coffee?

Problems Galore at This Hotel

First, hotel's on a no traffic street. Had to lug my bags down long cobblestone road. Then, hotel entry has 9 steps to take bags down. Aleksander did so for me. Odd man. Interrupts repeatedly. Not polite, but has good, helpful side. Wanted elevator. So, placed in room on 1st floor, but with steps going down. Then given 2nd room. Too small. Offered superior room, 7€ more per day.Took. TV didn't work. Excuse was change in cable. Blamed govt banning Russian TV channels. Went on all week. Fridge didn't work until fixed. Safe hard to see keyhole in dark. Steps in room. Breakfast OK, but in cramped room, everyone pushing, hard to move. Artur better staffer, but when I returned from short trip, having been offered same room at original rate, he gave papers to sign at 50% more. Insisted I'd booked it that way. I showed Hotels.com paperwork and also online proof it was same price as before. He was very annoying. I held my ground. He called supervisor. Much conversation and then admitted staff member made mistake. I'd cancelled one reservation listing me with 2 guests, then rebooked. Too complicated for other staff, who chose canceled reservation for 2nd booking. All staff seemed unmoved at difficulty in getting cab to go to bus station, first saying it would meet at Gallery Ctr, really far to walk with bags. Finally, I just walked where cab dropped me and vowed never to return. Note to myself: Ask hotel if on street where cars can take you to door. Also, no rooms with stairs.
