Our stay at Nikola's exceeded expectations. We didn't expect the location to be so amazing - you are literally on top of everything. There is a beautiful square directly opposite (so much so that we went back to the apartment several times a day to drop bits off/ freshen up!). Round the corner are all of the main tourist spots (House of the Blackheads, Three Brothers and Albert Street) and lots of little restaurants/ bars in the main square. There is a great chain restaurant called Double Coffee just below that serves breakfast/ lunch/dinner at a really reasonable price and we stopped off there as we arrived just out of ease.
The actual apartment is lovely, there are 2 stylish bedrooms as well as the large living room/kitchen with the beautiful skylights. One thing to bear in mind is that there is only one toilet which you have to access through one of the bedrooms but that did not cause any problems for us (7 of us in total). The apartment is really clean and we really appreciated the guide that Nikola put together for us. Nikola was a really attentive host, replying to all of my queries throughout the day.
I would absolutely recommend Nikola as a host, thank you for the excellent stay and we hope to visit Riga again!
