Very professionally run, too, more so than other hostels I've stayed in in the Baltics. We had a problem with the AC unit in our room which we reported at 6.30am and it was fixed by 9.30... More

We showed up and within 45 minutes we were in a van heading out on a dog sledding excursion. Rooms tip top and the staff is extremely helpful. I couldn't recommend this hostel enough to backpackers! More

This hostel was great. They had activities organised every night from karaoke, pub crawls to Latvian food night, so it would be ideal for single travellers. It was also a good sign to see the owner involved in the daily running and upkeep of the hostel. The common areas and the bathrooms/toilets were super clean. The hostel is located really... More

I stayed here based on reviews and I've gotta say there reputation proceeds them. They greeted me with a shot of the traditional drink of Riga- Black Balsam, that was a wonderful way to start my stay. They gave me an overview of what the hostel offered and then proceeded to map out for me anything and everything I could... More
