As all other reviews the apartment is cozy and within good walking distance of old Riga town. The biggest benefit is that you are amongst the locals and feel the real Latvia with the local market and shops around the corner. There are numerous buses and trams a minute walk from the apartment . We were met by the friendly Iveta and a warm stove when we arrived so it was a nice welcome. If you are not bothered about a posh hotel and want to sample the real Latvia this is for you
