We stayed here for 3 days while visiting Riga, and we chose it because of the price and the good reviews. It is a very small hostel with only about 20 beds it seemed, which was nice to get to know people but it definitely does feel intimate. ||We were in a room of 8 and it seemed, at least when we were there, that the clients are mostly older men.
