I stayed 3 months in Marita's apartment and I loved the big studio with the huge window and covered balcony as there was so much light even on dark days. It was warm, everything worked with internet and TV and the apartment is very safe and secure. For me, although it is not right in city centre, it is 3 minutes from the tram which takes you to Opera and old town as I was in the opera 3 or 4 nights a week. It is 10 minutes on the tram. Marita was the perfect host and I would recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Riga.
