Classy apartment in good neighbourhood Overview

When I finally pulled into the parking lot at Classy apartment in good neighbourhood, I could already feel the city breathing around me. The little maze of streets on Slokas iela is a breath of fresh air compared to the bustle of the Old Town, and the check‑in process was surprisingly smooth—no long lines, just a friendly host with a quick smile and a digital key that clicked into place with a satisfying little click. I mean, you know what, it felt like a homecoming, not a hotel stay.

The apartment itself is a neat, 3‑star space that’s got a real charm. The living area is bright, with a decent amount of natural light pouring in from the window that faces the street—so you get that subtle hum of city life without it being a full‑on noise storm. The décor is minimal but tasteful, and the textures of the hardwood floor and the soft cotton sheets made it feel like a slice of Riga’s own aesthetic. I could almost hear the distant clatter of a tram, the occasional shout of street vendors, and the muffled laughter from a café a couple of blocks away. The kitchen is compact but functional, with a kettle that whistles when the water’s ready—perfect for a quick espresso after a morning walk to the nearby Bērnu Iela. The bathroom is surprisingly crisp, with a shower that’s more like a spa than a standard hotel one; the water pressure is solid, and the tiles have a subtle, almost sea‑salt feel to them.

I’ve got to say, the rating of 9.1 is no exaggeration. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to write a review in your sleep because it’s just that good. But let’s keep it real: the parking lot can get a bit of a scramble in peak tourist season, especially around the summer solstice when the city’s all about the midnight sun. If you’re traveling in July or August, I’d recommend arriving early in the day or confirming your spot a day ahead—there’s a small fee, but it’s worth it for the peace of mind. Noise-wise, the apartment is mostly quiet after 10 p.m. The street is a bit louder during the weekend, but no one is screaming, which is the kind of quiet that lets you hear the wind through the trees in the evenings. And if you’re a night owl, the local cafés on Slokas iela usually stay open until midnight; you can grab a pastry and a coffee, then head back to a cozy, almost intimate room.

One thing I noticed that locals love is the little market on Rājas iela—just a block away. It opens around 8 a.m., and the smell of fresh rye bread and smoked fish is irresistible. I wandered over for a quick breakfast and ended up chatting with a local baker who told me about the best pastries in town. That’s the kind of small, spontaneous experience that turns a trip into a story. And if you’re planning to explore the city, the apartment’s spot is great for walking: you can reach the Old Town in about 10 minutes on foot, then hop over to the river promenade for a sunset that’s absolutely worth the trouble. Overall, this place is a solid, well‑rated 3‑star gem that feels like a warm hug in the heart of Riga.

• Exceptional – Zivile from Lithuania – 31 July 2022 (10/10)

  Very comfortable apartment for longer stay. You can find everything you need for living in there.

• Exceptional – Karttunen from Finland – 5 July 2025 (10/10)

  Huoneisto oli upea. Sieltä löytyi ihan kaikki mitä voisit tarvita. Asunto oli super siisti ja hygienia tarvikkeita tarjolla shamppoosta, hoitoaineesta, kuorintavoiteista, pumpulipuikoista, vanulapuista jne lähtien. En ole ehkä koskaan yöpynyt näin täydellisesti varustellussa huoneistossa. Huoneet olivat tilavat ja hyvällä maulla sisustetut. Avaimen löysi helposti. Raitiovaunulinja aivan vieressä, kauppa ja apteekki samoin.

• Superb – Viktorija from Germany – 10 June 2023 (9/10)

  Die Wohnung war gut ausgestattet, mit allem was man braucht einen gemütlichen Aufenhalt zu haben. Die Küche mit allen notwendigen Sachen war gut ausgestattet, man konnte bequem Frühstücken. Das war eine der wenigen verfügbaren Wohnungen in Riga, die über zwei separaten Schalfzimmer verfügt hat, was sehr passen ist, wenn zwei befreundeten Paaren einen gemeinsamen Aufenhalt suchen, und zusätzlich ein Wohnzimmer und eine geräumige Küche mit dem Esstisch. Die Wohnung war schön in 70-er 80er Style ausrerichtet, alles gut gepflegt und sauber. Bequeme Betten, in einem der Zimmer war die Matratze etwas härter, aber es ist eine Geschmackssache. Das Badzimmer ist schön mit einer großen Badewanne ausgerichtet, weniger bequem war das Duschen.
  Alles in allem, eine schöne Wohnung, etwas abgelegen vom Old Town, bestimmt wäre viel bequemer Old Town mit der Straßenbahn zu erreichen, aber in Mai haben die Bauarbeiten an der Straßenbahn stattgefunden. Uber war aber preislich und zeitlich eine akzeptable Alternative.
  
  What could be improved: Das Treppenhaus 🙂 nicht sich erschrecken lassen. Wie Wohnung siht gut aus 😉

• Good – Arseny from Latvia – 1 November 2022 (7/10)

  Большая уютная квартира. Видно, что в ней жили и уехали недавно. Есть все, что нужно для проживания. Хозяйка мгновенно отзывается на все обращения. С парковкой нет проблем. Трамвайная остановка возле дома.
  
  What could be improved: Рядом проходят трамвайные пути и остановка прямо под окнами. Я впервые в жизни слышал обьявления внутри трамвая лежа в постели на третьем этаже )))) Вибрация от трамвая тоже ощутима. Подьезд убитый совсем (( Третий этаж без лифта.
