I was highly satisfied with the accommodation at Barons Hostel. Though not directly located in old town, everything is within reach. Very helpful staff. Only for travellers with huge amounts of baggage - it is in the 5th floor, it will be a sport activity. However, there were no mosquitos in the sleeping room, which are widespread in Riga during summer, so itwas absolutely worth carrying all my luggage.

Hostel was everything a hostel should be! Its a small hostel with only a few rooms, which makes at feel like your staying at a mates place. Freddy who runs the hostel is a champ, he looks after his guests and gives great advice on what to do in Riga. Sincerly recommend his hostel!

There were at least 3 flights of stairs to climb which we found difficult. No lift.
