Latest Review for Central Hostel Riga
This is a Trusted Review. Why?
Riga is an expensive city (especially regarding the accommodation), so I would expect a little more comfort from my hostel with this price somewhere else. However, Central Hostel Riga is a very cozy place with a friendly staff who are willing to help you out with anything you have in your mind. Our double room with a bathroom was very plain and moderate, but we enjoyed it. However, the doors of the rooms are very thin, so this could be a problem, if people are talking at night.

Our double room with a bathroom was very plain and moderate, but we enjoyed it. However, the doors of the rooms are very thin, so this could be a problem, if people are talking at night. But because it surely is a place of the backpackers, usually everybody is sensible enough to take it into consideration. We really liked the way the breakfast was served.
