Bright&Cozy Flat with Terrace

Bright&Cozy Flat with Terrace Overview

You know what struck me first about this place? The name actually undersells it – “Bright&Cozy Flat with Terrace” sounds pretty basic, but honestly, it’s one of those hidden gems that makes you feel like you’ve discovered something special in Riga. I mean, with a 9.2 rating, I had high expectations, but this little spot on Jāņa Asara iela really delivers.

The location is actually perfect if you want to experience Riga like a local rather than being stuck in the touristy Old Town bubble. You’re in a proper residential neighborhood – I could hear kids playing in the courtyard and smell someone’s dinner cooking next door, which sounds weird but it’s actually really charming. The terrace is where this place really shines though. I spent most evenings out there with a beer from the corner shop (there’s a decent little market literally two minutes down the street), just watching the neighborhood wind down. The apartment gets incredible light during the day – those big windows aren’t just for show, and you’ll understand why they called it “bright” the moment you walk in.

What I really appreciated was how thoughtfully everything was set up. The owners clearly know what travelers actually need, not just what looks good in photos. The kitchen has proper knives and decent pans (you know how frustrating it is when you want to cook something simple and everything’s falling apart), and there’s actually enough space to spread out your stuff without living out of a suitcase. The terrace furniture is solid too – not those flimsy plastic chairs that collapse when you lean back. I spent a rainy afternoon reading out there under the little covered section, and it felt more like staying at a friend’s place than a rental. The Wi-Fi is solid throughout, which matters if you’re trying to work remotely, and the neighborhood is quiet enough that you can actually concentrate. Sure, it’s not luxury – this is a solid 3-star experience – but sometimes that’s exactly what you want. The trams run regularly if you need to get into the center, and honestly, the walk isn’t terrible either when the weather’s decent. I’d definitely come back here, especially knowing how hard it is to find places in Riga that feel this authentic without sacrificing comfort.

  The apartment is beautiful, stylish, quiet, has a lot of character and literally everything one might possibly need for a short stay. A huge bonus is the large terrace with a view to the park, which we would have greatly enjoyed had there been a bit more sun.

• Perfect price/quality ratio. – Veronika from Czech Republic – 28 April 2025 (7/10)

  Beautiful spacious apartment, perfectly equipped. There was a spacious terrace overlooking the park where you could jog or use the workout area. The location was great about 15min from the centre and a short walk from the bus stop. The connections to the centre were also frequent.
  
  What could be improved: Unfortunately the cleanliness of the apartment was not in the greatest shape. It was not vacuumed enough and the oven was dirty. Otherwise the bed linen and towels were clean.
