The atmosphere in this hostel is nice, but bad facilities and lack of cleanliness bring it to nough. It looks like hosts doesn't care about it - bathrooms are old, full of fungs on the sailings, at arrival water from bathroom flodded half of our room. They advertise sauna everywhere - but it's broken and it's hasn't been cleaned for ages. Promised free wifi is only at the reception, bar was without beer for 3days and the whole hostel looks like it needs to be cleaned.

The smell in the room was unpleasant and the bed linen where old. Also the hostel doesn't serve breakfast.

Great place, staff were all awesome and helped us out with where we should go for sightseeing as well as food and drinks. If I go back to Riga I'd definitely stay here again.

Hi, I was there on last Friday and Saturday nights with 9 friends. We had a very nice time in Riga and at your hostel, but I had a bad surprise today. We had initially booked for 3 nights and 14 people, but due to a strike on Monday in Belgium, only 10 of us eventually travelled and we had to fly back to Brussels on Sunday. I had paid a LVL22 deposit on 6 January (see below), but we could not pay the rest on Sunday since you had a computer breakdown. I've just found out that LVL205 have been transfered

Location is perfect, very close to stop of the airport bus and train station, only 5 minutes walk from the old city. Very friendly personnel. Rooms are tidy, massage shower is available. Would like to recommend anyone.

Very good hostel for backpackers. The prize-quality relation is excellent. Very well located, right next to the bus station and the old town. The staff was very nice, specially the irish man in reception, who will recommend you a lot of things (like what to see or where to go for take a drink or two). For this prize, would go again.
