The apartment is nicely updated (bathroom with washing machine is great), big, airy, quiet and located in a beautiful old building in a safe and lovely part of Central Riga. Amenities such as good restaurants, coffee shops, stores and supermarkets are very close by. You will see young parents with their children walking in the street, sitting in the cafes and shopping in the supermarket. Within a 20 minute walk is Old Town, the Art Nouveau area or the train station. Inese was very easy to communicate with. Although I didn't have an opportunity to meet Inese in person, the arrangements for the keys was very smooth. We really enjoyed our stay - thank you Inese!
