Kristine very kindly came to meet us (the taxi was not able to go down the street the apartment was on and we ended up wandering the wrong way down the road). She showed us to the apartment, explained the door codes/keys, took us on a brief tour of the place to point out where all the various light switches/plugs are (there are a few!). There was a map in the apartment on which Kristine showed us where we were and a few things nearby - supermarket etc. She explained the check out procedure and let us know that as there was no one staying after us we could check out whenever which was very kind. Once Kristine left us we investigated the apartment a bit more - it is 100% unique! An absolute treat to stay in if you are looking for a place in the old town, it feels like you are sightseeing just by staying there! The little kitchen comes well equipped, as does the bathroom (lots of teas/coffees/shampoo/shower gel available to use if you need), including a hair dryer. The bath/shower might be a little tricky for those who are a bit tall (you have to sit in it and use the shower, there is no wall attachment for the shower head), though this by no means impossible. We didn't get to use the fireplace but it was well stocked with fire lighters and wood should we have wanted to. Bedroom wise, though the bed was comfy enough for 2 nights, any longer and I may have had difficulty sleeping/with my back - the mattresses are foam blocks. Clean sheets and towels were provided. The location is perfect, just on the edge of the old town and a short 10min stroll up to the bars & shops of Miere Iela. I would thoroughly recommend this for anyone planning a short trip to Riga, the apartment is one of a kind, Kristine is a great host, the location is perfect.
