Very Good

Difficult stay. Was given room 316. It’s located in the staircase. Very strange. The WiFi did not reach that room very well at all. Often had no WiFi. The room was much smaller than I selected on hotels.com.
Was moved to the room type I book for the second night. It was the size I had booked. Wi-Fi worked well. This hotel needs to update all its traditional rooms. They are feeling very dated.

No wifi
Wi-Fi didn’t work in the room and as a business trip this was super inconvenient other than that fine room/cleanliness etc
Nice property but over priced. Room was too small, I could not place a chair between the bed and the desk.alao, the room location involved taking the stairs to get to another elevator. In addition, the staff manually entered my credit card information in the system as a security deposit for mini bar usage. I wouldn't stay there again.
An amazing hotel, helpful and kind staff. The location of the hotel is central and convenient to reach both bus station and the airport. We will definitely back when we visit Riga again.
The hotel itself is very nice. My room felt small but was perfectly fine. The hotel makes use of the existing architecture and retains some original features. The location is excellent and feel very safe.
Fantastic price for good-size rooms and extremely-walkable distances to interesting old town landmarks. We barely had to use any public transit to get around it was so well-located, so it was extremely convenient and a great value for an interesting old building!
Breakfast was excellent, as was the desk help. Might need a little refreshing, as the bed creaked with every move, and the carpet looked as it’s seen some wear. But overall, thriller with my stay.

Not so good stay this time.
No access to bed from sides and had to crawl in from bottom, tiny shower and very little room to move, shower seal worn and flooded floor, no sachets of coffee anymore, tiny tv with 3 stations not worth watching, breakfast average. Won’t use this hotel again.
Near Riga old town. All attractions are within walking distance. Plenty of restaurants to choose from. Happy to be in Riga.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Good location, close to old town. We were a group of friends, booked 5 rooms. Some rooms are very small, in two of them the fridge was not working. No cleaning or change if towels or removal of garbage during our stay. It seems that you need to ask for the service. We found dirt and garbage (empty bottle) under the bed from previous tourists. Breakfast was buffet, good variation but same products every day. It is ok for a short stay but not for longer.

Just a basic property parking was available but not easily accessible do to large cobbles… quaint but you need to carry your luggage as the cobbles will make it impossible to roll luggage ok for me but I think elderly folks should stay aeay
Check In/Out staff very helpful. Tea and coffee available in room but no milk, despite there being a fridge. The near environs are a little run down but not threatening. I would stay again
