The staff and other patrons were very nice!! It’s a cool vibe. The bathroom wasn’t very clean and the drain didn’t work so well so that was a downside. Additionally, the keypads on the doors are extremely loud and the walls are thin.
Great location and good value for money!

Good room for the price, sort of apartment like with shared bathroom and common rooms.
Nice to have access to kitchen and free coffee in the morning
I love everything about this place but mostly how valued and appreciated customers are. The staff are very helpful, organized and communicates well with step by step instructions. Even when checked out I feel welcome and allowed me to stay a bit before heading to the bus station. The location is also convenient for walks and for shopping as well. This place deserves 10 stars
Good value for money. I strongly suggest a private room, not a hostel bed.

very nice staff, lovely rooms and the atmosphere of being home: it’s a cosy place. I really like that coffee and tea are for free and that you have the possibility of using a fridge to store food and cook by yourself. The decoration is really nice as well and the staff is very friendly. Furthermore it’s not in the loud city centre but you can reach it by feet within 15 minutes. Also around this place there are many lovely cosy bars where you can meet lots of local people and also prices are lower than in the old town. I really liked my stay and would always come back
J'ai séjourné onze jours dans cet hôtel en ayant une chambre privative de deux lits.
Pour un tarif peu élevé par rapport aux prix moyens de Riga, son emplacement est excellent et permet de se rendre à la gare en 10 minutes, à la vieille ville en 20 minutes.
Les chambres sont spacieuses, silencieuses et très propres.
Les espaces communs comme la cuisine ou les salles de bains sont très propres et très bien entretenus. Très gros plus pour les cafés, fruits frais et tisanes mis à disposition.
La décoration est dans le thème letton et permet d'en apprendre plus sur le pays.
Le personnel est très sympathique et à notre disposition, heureux d'aider ses clients à découvrir le pays. Je tiens également à remercier le gérant de l'hôtel qui fut très sympathique, disponible et qui n'hésite pas à aller vers les clients.
Séjour très agréable. Le personnel est très prévenant et m'a bien aidé. L'hôtel est très bien situé avec des commerces à proximité, la gare et le centre ville assez proches.
Cependant, il ne faut pas être pointilleux sur la propreté.
Sisäänkirjautuminen oli todella nopea ja vastaanottovirkailija osasi hyvin englantia. Toisaalta verhot olivat ohuet ja huoneen toinen asukas rupesi soittamaan jotain puhelimellaan 6-7 kertaa yön aikana.
Absolut zu empfehlen👍👍
Alles sehr sauber☝
Ruhige Lage und große Zimmer👍👍
Top Management👍👍
Viele Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe, Deutschsprachiger Manager -> Sehr Hilfsbereit👍👍

Daha önce kullanılmış olan yatak çarşafı değiştirilmemişti. Yıkanmış çarşaf hem temiz kokar hem de dokusu farklıdır. Fakat yatak çarşafı bu özelliklere sahip değildi. Personelden değiştirilmesini talep ettiğimde önce nerden biliyorsunuz değiştirilmediğini tabiki de mağazadan yeni almadık deyip, manipülasyon yaparak benimle tartışmak istedi. Kendisine yorgun olduğumu, dinlenmeye ihtiyacım olduğunu söyleyip, tartışmak istemediğimi talep ederse extra ücret vereceğimi teklif ettikten sonra çarşaflar temiz olanlarla değiştirildi. Misafirle tartışmak istemek, onu neredeyse sorguya çeker gibi sözler söylemek, dahası o misafir ana dilde konuşmuyorsa, bir ülkede yabancıysa, tolere edilemez.
Temizlik; 5 yıldız üzerinden 2, havlular temizdi ve genel alan fena değildi.
Çalışanlar; 5 yıldız üzerinden 2, çarşaf için extra ücret almadı.
Ardından koridorda bağıran erkekler, kadın-erkek tartışan insanlar…Uykumdan o seslerle uyandım.
Çok rahatsız ve tedirgin edici bir konaklamaydı.
Kısacası tavsiye etmiyorum.
Du får det som du betaler for. Lav standard, men verdt hver krone. Posisjon er sentralt, vennlige resepsjonister, rent bad og toalett, og helt fint rom. Det er gammel bygg derfor noe dårligere luft inne. Hvis du skal ha en enkelt kort opphold, nær alt du kan ikke gjøre feil ved å velge Central Hostel.
