This is undoubtedly a brilliant location to stay to visit Riga. The Apartment is in a lovely part of town, lots of greenery and interesting buildings, a convenient shop, and everything you need. The advantage is Riga is not huge you can easily walk, through lovely parks, into the historic centre, to see the Jugendstil buildings or the industrial riverside. If you were staying more centrally you would undoubtedly miss this area that was most charming too.
