This is an authentic flat in a charismatic area just outside of Riga, plenty of buses a minute walk, or not too far if you enjoy walking. If you are looking for a true Latvian experience in every way, then this is the place for you. Its not luxurious, but that was its charm. Its VERY quiet and VERY peaceful, you wont hear a thing inside the flat. We loved the open fire, burning our own logs. The apartment was always comfortably warm without being hot or cold. A cute little bar just to the left of the front. The house itself is set in a back garden, almost secluded, so you wont hear any road noise at all. We loved it here and would recommend. Please be aware there is no washbasin in the bathroom, this may bother some people but we were OK about it.
