Rīga, Latvia

Staff are friendly and helpful, and the location is excellent. Rooms vary in quality, with some feeling tired and bathrooms needing updates, though deluxe rooms are spacious. The bar makes great drinks but allows smoking, which bothers many guests.

Location is excellent but the hotel itself is falling apart. Rooms smell bad, have broken fixtures, water damage, and thermostats that don't work. Breakfast is chaotic with long waits and the staff can't keep up. Maintenance issues are widespread and prices don't match the quality.

Rooms are clean and warm but tight on space, so packing light helps. The central old town location puts you near everything, and staff treat you well. Breakfast is solid, though some guests found their rooms cold despite the heating.
