Janis was one of the best hosts I've ever had on Airbnb and I use the service a lot. When we arrived he basically made me give him my heaviest bag so he could carry it. He also broke out a map and showed us all the things he thought we needed to do in Riga. He also suggested to go to Jurmala for a day trip which I hadn't considered previously. It was really nice. Bring a bathing suit if you're visiting in summer. Janis made the arrangements for taxis to pick my friends and I up when we departed. The apartment is right by a beautiful park and embassies so its super safe. It's also larger than I imagined. I went with a couple plus me and we were totally comfortable. I'm 6'3" and I was more than comfortable crashing on the couch. Overall a great host, easy to communicate with and all the small touches like 3 pairs of slippers waiting by bathroom made for great experience. Highly, highly recommend
