Dangerous place. Booked for one night, mom and 2 small kids. The place is filled with scary loud people. As you walk down the corridor to your room, the other guests had their doors wide open and laid naked in their beds. The area is filled with druggies and homeless people. Very hot and rooms have no AC. If you open the windows the noise outside is too loud. Inside the hotel people are fighting, shouting all night. I had to put all available furniture against the door during the night. I couldn’t wait until morning to check out and leave. I feared for my safety and my children’s safety that night. Never again. Stay somewhere else.
On the edge area and I would not say totally safe. There was a farmers market below my window, quite wonderful and on every night until 10 pm. One night a man with a knife was threatening some one, but a serious fight seem to have been avoided as no one was hurt. A lot of noise every night from 5 am until 7 am with trucks unloading and loading.
The hotel was OK, the room large and the bathroom great. Included a kitchen, but no fridge, but one could use a fridge downstairs.
Very close to the central market, but a walk to the old town.
The front desk was mostly OK, but all of a sudden when I had to leave there was no one and I needed a taxi, and they knew I needed their help. Internet not so good in the room.
It was dirty. The whole hostel was dirty, including the kitchen, common areas, and rooms. There were bugs in the rooms. The kitchen was full of trash, there were no common utensils, there was open food left out on the counter and the freezer was so full of old food it was all frozen together in a solid block.
In addition to being dirty, I felt unsafe--even in a private room. I didn't see any other women. The only people I saw were older men who seemed as though they were down on their luck and using the hostel as cheap housing.
I've been traveling through Europe for several months and this is the only hostel I would absolutely recommend against staying.
The reception Personnel were great. The room was spotless and the Kitchen are was very clean. The area has several restaurants and the market area is very interesting.However, both my wife and I were bitten by bugs which left multiple welts. We have been gone nearly two days and the welts are still red and itch. These were not bed bugs. They were small black insects you could grab and kill. There were not many but enough to wake us up in the middle of the night.,.
Offensichtlich ein Hotel für Wanderarbeiter. Das angebotene Zimmer war sehr sauber und angenehm eingerichtet. Die Lage des Hotels ist gut fußläufig zur Altstadt.
Der Aufenthalt für einige Tage ist in Ordnung. Ich würde dort wieder buchen.
Günstiges Hotel, freundliche Menschen. Normale Sprach-schwierigkeiten. In der Nähe gab es ein Cafee mit günstgem Frühstück. Umgebiung interessant: viele renovierte alte Handelshäuser, Promenade an der Düna, Aussicht auf die Petrikirche und Nähe Zentrum.

Meget larm!
Værelset var rent, og hotellet ligger midt i Centralmarkedet. Derfor er der også meget larm. Folk snakker højlydt i gangene midt om natten, og der er tynde vægge, så man kan høre snak og folk, der snorker om natten.
Da jeg skulle tjekke ud, var receptionisten på pause, selvom det var midt på formiddagen, og jeg måtte vente længe.
Eneste plus er, at værelset var rent.
Naktsmītne atrodās centrā,blakus autoosta ,dzelzceļa stacija kā arī skaistā Vecrīga.

Pas de rideau (ni de volet) à la fenêtre de toit : impossible de dormir tôt le matin. Chambre en réfection juste à côté de la mienne, donc bruits de perceuse le matin également (même le dimanche). Carrelage dans la chambre assez froid.
Ci e' piaciuta l'essenzialita' della struttura e la posizione vicino al centro ed alle stazioni bus e treni, ma l'hotel, essendo nela zona mercato, di sera resta piuttosto isolato. La finestra era a lucernaio. I mobili un po' piccoli ed instabili, ma ottimo il rapporto qualita' /prezzo.
