Liked: Free internet, lots of clean showers and toilets. Double room had huge comfy bed and free towels. We had a great night sleep and the location is very close to the bus station and close to great bars and cafes. Try the No Problem bar for outdoor music and drinking. The entire staff were friendly and helpful. There are a lot of activities on offer at the hostel including bungee, tours and a shooting range experience. Kitchen is also good and common room makes it easy to meet others.

Disliked: Need more fans in summer.

Liked: - Staff was very helpful- Central location- Common room is lively, you can meet people- Clean, secure

Disliked: - Ask for a room at the back, the rooms in front are very noisy! (Lots of noise coming from the street, and windows are open due to heat - no airco). To be fair, once told about the problem the next day, the staff offered me a free beer to compensate for the noise (although it was 9AM). - Lots of people are in Riga to party, so they may come back very late... But I suppose it's the same in any hostel in Riga.

Liked: Oh the fun had at the Naughty Squirrel. Its a big hostel but don't be put off as the staff are great and the small common room is a hive of fun.Free wifi, kitchen and a bar in house (see if you can drink them out of beer like we did). Met some great people there and would stay again anytime. It is a party place so if your looking for a quiet night you may be best looking elsewhere.

Liked: I actually stayed at the Blue Cow (Naughty Squirrel's sister hostel, also in central Riga). This is a new, apartment-style hostel with fantastic, modern facilities in an ideal location - within walking distance of all the major sights. The staff at both hostels are excellent and very helpful. Blue Cow is a great option for travellers seeking a quieter atmosphere, while Naughty Squirrel has an active social program.

Disliked: Sarah left no negative feedback.

01 June 2010 Steven would recommend this property

Liked: It is very central - about a 2 minute walk from the main sqaure and the bus stop is about 2 minutes as well.The old town of riga is not that big so it is easy to walk around. The staff are very helpful and friendly and the free shots are great. Watch out for the black balsalm. They offer free internet as well. Everyone pretty much speaks english and the transport is easy to understand. The train station can be a lttlle confusing at first to find.

Disliked: Steven left no negative feedback.
