We stayed almost a week at Olivier's stylish apartment (loved the yellow kitchen) and enjoyed it there. Emilija met us and was very sweet and helpful with recommendations...glad she mentioned taking the train to Jurmala because it was well worth it!
The walk from the airport bus drop-off made it seem like the apartment was kind of out of the way, but it's actually very well located and we had no issues getting around--in fact, we had a 5-day transport pass that we hardly used, opting to walk instead. Riga was great, thanks for having us!
