Fraud
This hostel didn’t exist. I went there and this place has been closed for months. Hotels.com is screwing customers by taking money for hotels that don’t exist.

Move from selected property into another nearby flat. Flat had a key code access to the stair well but the flat had no key never mind a room key. Cleanliness was poor. It does have a really good central location and would be a great location if significant work was done on the property.

Shabby hostel
This is a hostel located in some fomer appartments. There is 1 toilet and 2 showers for the floor only (for 25persons), plus extremely small kitchen. They don't have boxes for luggage at all. And finally it is stinking in dormitory awfully. So it was bad experience. The only plus - the location in old city centre.

Center of the heart! Good location!
The Staff Vineta was very helpful to map me every local attractions and the location is super good, though the music play by the nearby cafe was super now, but i enjoy the music too, they stop at 2300, so it's in the heart of the old town center, supreme!

The bed mattresses needed replacing were too hard and uncomfortable. Disappointing that there were no lockers in the room. The fridge could do with a daily clean/check.

Good location but that's it
So we got there on a Friday night after a long day of travel. We found the place ok, and the location is right in the old town. So an easy walk to everything but it's also right in the middle of all the pubs and stuff so a LOT of street noise and we had some other guests coming back totally drunk and rowdy really early in the morning. There is also a restaurant very close by that has live music paying until around 2200. Let me just say the staff tried their best to help us out, but we won't be going back there

Emplacement vraiment idéal mais l'espace cuisine est vraiment à revoir même pas de micro-ondes pour faire réchauffer par exemple. Salle de bain pas propre. Un petit lavabo aurait été un plus. Mes points positifs: le personnel est très gentil et l'emplacement est au top pour tout visiter à pied. Attention pour ceux que le bruit dérange la nuit car du coup, on entend franchement les bars.

Очень шумно по ночам!
Центральное расположение и хороший сервис не спасают ситуацию со слышимостью. Прямо под окнами находится какой-то клуб, всю ночь слышно людей на улице. Уснуть нереально! В номерах довольно тесно.

Расположение хостела просто "блеск"-самое сердце Риги. Достаточно чисто.обстановка в хостеле демократичная ( очень дружелюбный персонал, несмотря на новогодние праздники тихо и по-домашнему).Есть все необходимое на кухне (холодильник,микроволновка,принадлежности для мытья посуды). Удобства на этаже(одна туалетная комната,две душевые кабины).Все достаточно удобно для непродолжительного и неприхотливого отдыха.

旧市街の路地裏にありサービス最悪
ドマ・ホステルを予約し、深夜に旧市街の路地裏を懸命に探し到着。さっそく2階へ。 そしたら突然ドメ・パール・ホステルに案内される。 ダブルを予約したにも関わらず、6人の相部屋に案内される。しかも隣がオフィスで落ち着かない。深夜12時を過ぎ、閉館時間を過ぎているにも関わらず、男性スタッフがオフィスのソファーに座り、利用者の様子をこっそり聞き取っている様子が感じ取れる。 予約時に、クレジットカードをエクスペディアで入力したにも関わらず、50ユーロの現金支払いを求められる。 これはおかしいと議論したが、結論はAirbnbはカード支払いだが、Booking.comとExpediaはチェックインしなかった場合に備えてクレジット情報を入力する必要がある、チェックインする場合は現金を支払うとのこと。結局現金を支払うことに。 相部屋は6人部屋であり、そのうち2人分のみが用意されている。それもシーツやタオルに統一感がなく、古びている。照明は椅子の上に小さいものがあるくらいで、暗さを利用して不潔さをごまかしている様子。天井は壊れたままになっている。 トイレと浴室は共用で、トイレは香りの匂いがきつい。 湯沸かし器とガラスコップがある、廊下のテーブルがキッチンらしい。これも不潔。 チェックアウト時は正午を過ぎるまでスタッフが現れなかった。そのあとチェックイン時のスタッフが現れ、なくしたレシートをもう1つ作ってもらったが、その後、レシートを2つ作るのは違法だといわれ、部屋を出ることを差し止められた。仕方なくレシートを返却し、釈放される。まるで強盗のよう。

Rauhallinen sisältä. Ulkona kova musiikki.
Paljon portaita eli ei huonojalkaisille. Vuokrasimme isolle porukalle kattohuoneiston. Upea pienistä puutteista huolimatta. Upeat puiset rakenteet. Siisteys oli vähän niin ja näin mutta rahansa väärti. Kova musiikki lähes puoleen yöhön asti vähän häiritsi ja kattoikkunoiden läpi paistava luonnon valo, mutta yllätävän hyvin sai nukuttua. Lapset tykkäsi kovasti puisista rappusista, huoneistossa, jossa nukkumatilaa myös ylä osassa. Ei keittiötä ei mikroa mutta juokseva vesi ja oma kylppäri. Hyvät näköalat ja ihan vanhassa kaupungissa.
