Ilze was a great host & the apartment is awesome, definitely up there in the top three places which we have stayed in over the years of using Airbnb. It’s very comfortable, bright & spacious & as it’s dated in the Art Nuevo period it has high ceilings which makes it feel even bigger. The kitchen is fully equipped & Ilze left us tea & coffee for the filter machine, which was a nice touch. The open lounge is tastefully done & a great place to relax, plus Netflix for films in the evening was great. Everything was perfect, very clean & tidy.
The self check-in was easy but as Ilze has explained you do need to pull the door up tight so you hear the sash click before you use the key for the dead locks or manually use the electric lock once you’re in the apartment. It is very safe & secure.
We would highly recommend the apartment for your stay in Riga, the old town is an easy 20 min walk & you can cut through the lovely park if you wanted too. The theatre is fantastic & we would definitely recommend you see a ballet or an opera there.
