Good place for a bargain price
We placed order few hours before we arrived to Latvia, as other place sudenly canceled our reservation. We visited this hostel and discovered it's match it's name - Good and Cheap. Kind service, clean rooms, very queit place, at City center, near by bus/train stations and most popular places. We canceld our order just 20min after arrival, just beccause out friends invited us to stay by them.

Basic. Good for one night.
Super basic, run down big apartment with rooms sharing bathroom. Water wasn't hot that day. No elevator. Wifi signal best in common area. Free tea, coffee. Friendly staff. Good if u need a budget room instead of a hostel dorm. Very close to train/ bus station.

Misleading
The street entrance is thru that hole and into another hole off the right side. Reminded me of escaping in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang thru the dungeons. The "lobby " is disgusting. But often is in this part of the world. The graffiti and flies hovering on the stairs all added to the dirt. 88 steps to the room. This was no hotel. It was adequate but not worth 24 euros. Maybe 14 . Had better and paid less in Budapest. The only good thing was the man. He was a genuinely nice person obviously corrupted by greed.

Hostel not a hotel
The hotel stuff was friendly,room was big,but no built in fan or iron, which you can get on request tho. Its more like a empty flat than a hotel room. Perfectly located in city centre. Close to everything. If you are on a budget go for it;but do not expect hotel. It an empty room with beds

Budget hotel good location& less comfortable
This hotel can be only booked when you need an economical room other than hostel.becuase you will have your own room.This is good and economical. If you have heavy luggage,it is tiring job to climbe the stairs for 3-4 floors. What is good and positive for this hotel is the location! It is really in the city center and good location. If you are a group/students by making budget/economical accom. this place will be suitable for you.Do not expect lots of thing.

Hidden
There is no sign outside the building indicating that the apartments are located there. At night the entrance is in an unlighted archway. If you don't contact the manager by phone you cannot get in. The apartments are on the 4th and 5th floors up steep stairs. Wi-Fi was weak. Room was clean with the bare necessities with shared bath. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Review
When l arrived there was no elevator; l just had huge suitcase and l had to carry it to the 4th floor. In the internet it was said that it is possible to pay with card there- in reality you cant! They said that it is broken but it seemed that it hasn´t been working for a long time ! Also, the other people who were staying there were smoking behind the main door- it is on the 4th floor but smoking inside isn´t allowed. It is really bad when others aren´t smoking and then it smells bad. Also the parts left from smoke where everywhere on the stairs.

10/10 Exceptional

Very nice place between old town and newer sights
The location, room (apartment) and staff were all very nice. Close to main railway and bus station and just 2-3 min walk from old town and food market. The rooms (2+corridor and bathroom) had a lot of space and were very clean. No decorations - but I really don't understand who needs them anyways (go to design hotels, if looking for that :) The staff was very helpful and VERY friendly/nice indeed - extra bonus for them! Only minus is the stairway to the hotel, which might be a bit alarming, but says nothing about the hotel itself. With this prize I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
