Writing this review is hard since the host was so friendly and helpful. That said, we did not have a good stay. The room itself was very clean, but could use a new coat of paint. The bathroom looked like it hadn't been thoroughly cleaned for some time (aside from some surface cleaning), and was very cluttered with cleaning products and household items. The kitchen was dark (blown lights not replaced) and somewhat dingy with dirty seat covers, and open food on the counter attracting flies. Our biggest concern was the lack of security in that the main door accessing the building had no lock and was open to just anyone off the street. That, along with the constant yelling and active street below, made for a restless night. A lock on the bedroom door would have been a bit of a comfort given the situation. Overall, we left wondering how our 'cleaning fee' had been used. All that said, we did contact Kristaps about our concerns and he was quick to help us out and offered to refund our money. If you're looking for a no frills, basic bedroom to lay your head, this could work.
