Cute studio APT with a View over the rooftops and Free parking in the area

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be straight with you – this little studio on Pērnavas iela isn’t going to win any design awards, but honestly? It’s got something that a lot of fancier places in Riga completely miss. The view over the rooftops is actually pretty magical, especially if you’re up early with coffee watching the city wake up. You know what I mean – those moments when you’re traveling and suddenly everything feels right.

The free parking thing is huge, and I mean *huge* if you’ve ever tried to find a spot in central Riga. Most visitors don’t realize how tricky parking can be around the Old Town area, but this place sorts that headache right out. The apartment itself is compact – well, it says studio right in the name, so no surprises there – but it’s laid out smartly. Everything you need is within arm’s reach, which actually works better than you’d think. The kitchen setup is basic but functional (I managed to make decent morning coffee and simple meals without any drama), and the shower has proper water pressure, which honestly puts it ahead of some four-star places I’ve stayed at.

What really sold me on this spot was the neighborhood vibe. Pērnavas iela sits in this sweet spot where you’re close enough to walk into the heart of things – the Old Town’s maybe a 15-minute stroll – but far enough out that you’re not dealing with tourist crowds stumbling around at 2 AM. The local grocery store is right there when you need supplies, and there’s this little bakery about two blocks down that does incredible rye bread (very Latvian, very worth it). The area gets quiet at night, which means you’ll actually sleep instead of listening to party groups navigating cobblestones in heels. The rooftop view changes throughout the day too – morning light hits differently than evening, and if you’re lucky enough to be there during one of those dramatic Baltic sunsets, you’ll understand why someone decided to highlight the view in the name. Sure, it’s not luxury – the 7.7 rating is pretty accurate, meaning it’s solid and dependable rather than spectacular. But sometimes that’s exactly what you want: a comfortable base that doesn’t eat your entire travel budget, with a host who clearly knows what matters to visitors (again, that parking situation), and a genuine slice of how Riga actually feels when you’re not staying in the tourist bubble.

Reviews

• Quiet, everything you need for a short overnight stay for one person! – Radzvilaite from Lithuania – 5 May 2025 (8/10)

  The most important thing for me was the overnight stay, so I felt safe and calm. The studio is really small, but everything is ok for one person, equipped economically, but with love.
  All the information on getting to the apartment was clear and accurate.
  Communication was clear and timely.
  
  What could be improved: Apart from a few household details (some small things needs to be fixed or repaired), basically everything is fine and works. I missed… except salt 😉 About the parking space: due to a change in circumstances, I considered the possibility of going by my car, but the hosts informed me that the place was already taken. Since I was in a hurry, I didn't go into more detail.
