Dali Su

10 August 2009

Liked: I don't like anything about the hostel except that it is within the old town. The staff is cold, inexpressive and very reluctant to help or give their advice about anything. The room is noisy - at the night the sound from the bars and clubs outside makes it impossible for anybody to sleep nicely. It doesn't feel safe - there are no lockers, the staff won't give us a key to the dorm saying that it is left open all day. I hope that people who come to Riga and trying to make wise decisions would steer clear of this hostel.

Disliked: Dali left no negative feedback.

Truus van den Brink-Havinga

29 December 2008 Truus would recommend this property

Liked: We were offered a free upgrade, which we really appreciated. Personnel was a bit reluctant but at the same time really helpful. The hostel had a meeting room, however, there were hardly any people there. Safety rated below average is because rooms had doors with large windows in it and it was locked by means of ordinary keys.

Disliked: Truus left no negative feedback.
