Liked: It's really only 10 minutes walk to the Old Town or center of Riga. Really cheap price.
Disliked: Mens shower is suitable for horse paddocks. Microwave oven looks and smells like a bin. Do not accept credit cards, only cash.

Bruno Marques
13 June 2010 Bruno would recommend this property
Liked: Very cheap for the location just 300 meters from old Riga center. Good matresses, pretty quite, behind the city market but very safe as it is in front of police station (generally Riga is very safe). The con point: the only 2 toillets open directly to the common room which is kind of awkward and uneasy. Generally their installations are kind of primitive. There are only 2 showers so if they are busy you may have to wait in line. But very kind english speaking staff. But if you are in a tight budget it is a good choice specially as you can buy all sorts of fun food in the market.
Disliked: Bruno left no negative feedback.
