You get what you pay for, in a somewhat positive manner. We paid an extra 40 per night to upgrade to a higher room and the view from the 17th floor was worth it! Our room faced the Freedom statue and the iconic Riga skyline. Cheap and clean RedCab taxis available 24/7 outside the hotel.

Don't let the nice exterior and lobby fool you, though, it's an old hotel with pretty small rooms that obviously has been (somewhat poorly) refurbished. Don't expect luxury.

The only thing drawing one star from our stay was that they didn't change our bed sheets even though we laid it out so the large ketchup stain was clearly visible. Huge let-down and it gets you thinking about what other stuff they don't clean..
