Location is good because it’s in old town.
I didn’t know I will be sharing with other travellers. Two other rooms with only one shared bathroom- and during my stay- 2 people on each room so at night it’s difficult.
There is washing machine and dryer provided but it depends on who you are sharing the flat with. During my stay, it was always full and the towels were there for the entire day.
Blow dryer and hair curlers are there. Shampoo/soap available- i think some travellers left itthere and they didn’t throw it away.
According to the rules, you musn’t stay in the shared spaces too long because there are other renters- so the kitchen and tv are useless if you don’t want to disturb others. No microwave but a normal microwave oven for the small kitchen.
Noise is too much to bear and it only ends at 1am onwards- everyday.
No lift- 2nd floor with four flights of stairs so that’s a hassle too
The apartment entrance is dingy- it’s near the garbage bins.
The shower is weird, i turn it on and it turns hot then in the middle it becomes cold- my fault though i should’ve asked why.
The entrance door is a bit broken. Locked out but good thing was there is another person inside the apartment.
There is a biscuit in the bed when i came so i guess that’s the personal touch as well as leaflets about Riga.
But overall, it’s just like staying in a hostel. The stay wil depend on who you’re renting with.
