Average cheapest prices by month.
Cheap and Cheerful. Good location & Clean rooms. Was a good base to explore the rest of Riga. ... more
Our location was perfect; just one street away from the main street and no bothering of outgoing people . The service was also very well. The girl behind the desk was really helpful.

Excellent choice for this kind of price - costs double less than any other more or less comparable hostel in the Old Town. Location is very good - just between the bus station and beginning of the Brivibas street. The rooms are very spacious, recently renovated. The only minus is absence of kitchen, bistro downstairs is closed also. ... more
