It’s a small studio apartment not near the city center, but closer to Arena Riga. All these are already written in the description. I chose this specifically for a concert at the Arena (which got cancelled).
Anyways, the location of this place is at a very residential area, inside a condo complex, and beside a park-cemetery, in other words, total tranquility! The condo complex is actually really nice which I really loved. Sun decks, a small playground, big courtyard. In the lobby, there’s a coffee vending machine (€1) which I used daily with very tasteful furniture (sofas, couches) and decor. Washing machine, detergent, body wash and shampoo, dishwashing liquid all stocked and ready for use.
The apartment itself is pretty small (20m2 as mentioned), but well stocked, modern and well designed. Kitchenette with electric stove which worked perfectly. There was also a balcony which doesn’t really have a view but might be good to sit and chill/read. My favorite was the shower — hot water comes within 2 seconds and the water pressure was super. Apartment is really cozy, I found myself snoozing multiple times. And as mentioned, not the nearest to the city center, so many times I got lazy to explore and decided to take another nap.
Amenities not super near, but also not far off, usually a short walk of 7-15 minutes gets you to a supermarket/shopping mall/tram station, etc. There are also gyms nearby (FitSpot). Transport in Riga is strangely slow for the distance covered in my experience, so I echo Boriss to take the tram instead of the bus. Lido and Domina shopping center was where I ate and shopped.
Another thing is that Boriss is insanely responsive. I don’t think he takes longer than 3 minutes to reply me, which was really appreciated. He is very polite and accommodating as well.
I definitely recommend if you’re here as a solo traveler or couple for short stays. Maybe long stays too if you don’t plan on working remotely from the apartment. There’s plenty of cafes for that in Riga anyways.
