Brassy apartment

Hotel Description

So I stumbled across this little gem – Brassy apartment – tucked away on Čiekurkalna 4. šķērslīnija, and honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect from the address alone. The name threw me off too, but after staying there, I get it. There’s something genuinely warm and welcoming about this place that catches you off guard. You’re on the fourth floor (no elevator, just so you know), but the climb is worth it once you settle in. The apartment sits in this residential neighborhood that feels authentically Rīga – not touristy, just real life happening around you.

What struck me first was how quiet it gets at night, despite being in the city. The windows are solid, and you know what? I actually slept better here than at some of the fancier hotels I’ve tried. The space itself has this lived-in comfort that makes you want to kick off your shoes and stay awhile. Everything works – the kitchen, the WiFi, hot water comes fast – but it’s more than that. There are these little touches that show someone actually cares about the place. Fresh towels that smell like they were line-dried, a coffee setup that goes beyond the usual instant stuff, windows that open wide when you want fresh air. The furnishing isn’t trying to impress anyone, but it’s comfortable in that way that matters when you’re actually living somewhere for a few days.

The location works really well if you want to experience Rīga like locals do. You’re about fifteen minutes from Old Town by foot, but honestly, I found myself hanging around the neighborhood more than I expected. There’s a decent grocery store within walking distance, and the tram connections are straightforward once you figure them out. Parking can be a bit tricky if you’re driving – it’s street parking mostly, and you’ll want to read the signs carefully. But the host was upfront about all that stuff during check-in, which I appreciated. The whole experience feels less like staying at a hotel and more like borrowing a friend’s place. That 9.7 rating makes sense once you’ve been there – it’s not luxury, but it delivers exactly what it promises without any pretense. For the price point, especially if you’re staying more than a couple nights, it’s honestly hard to beat.

  Very nice and comfortable apartment with bug bath and good bed. Everything you need is there – kitchen, microwave, dish washer, washer machine, dishes, pots. Electronic locker instead of keys is very good solution.
  Soundproof. Owners are very helpful. Enjoyed my stay!
  
  What could be improved: It is far from center, but close to mezaprks (seaside) and shops. Nothing what I did not like
