Dream Apartment Blaumana Overview

You know what surprised me about Dream Apartment Blaumana? I was expecting another generic rental situation, but this place actually feels like someone’s carefully curated home that they just happen to let travelers stay in. The location on Blaumaņa street is honestly perfect if you want to experience Riga like a local – you’re tucked into this quiet residential area where you’ll hear actual Latvian conversations drifting from windows, not tourist chatter.

The apartment itself has that comfortable, lived-in quality that’s hard to fake. I mean, sure, it’s a 3-star place so don’t expect marble everything, but the attention to detail really shows. The kitchen actually has proper knives (travelers will know what I’m talking about), and there’s this great natural light that streams in during the morning hours. What really got me was how thoughtfully everything was arranged – like someone actually considered what you’d need for a week-long stay, not just a quick overnight. The Wi-Fi is solid too, which matters if you’re trying to work remotely or just want to video call home without that awkward pixelated freeze-frame thing happening.

Walking around the neighborhood, you’ll notice you’re about a 15-minute stroll from the Old Town but far enough away that you won’t deal with the weekend party crowds stumbling around at 2 AM. There’s this fantastic little market on Matīsa street (just a few blocks over) where locals actually shop – not one of those tourist trap places. The tram connections are really convenient from here, and honestly, parking isn’t the nightmare it is in other parts of the city center. I was skeptical about that 9.5 rating at first – seemed too good to be true – but after staying there, I get it. It’s not about luxury; it’s about everything just working the way it should. The check-in was smooth, the space was exactly as described, and those little touches (good coffee, decent shower pressure, blackout curtains that actually block light) make all the difference when you’re trying to settle into a new city. If you’re the type who wants to experience Riga from a real neighborhood base rather than a generic hotel bubble, this is definitely worth considering.

Reviews of Dream Apartment Blaumana

  • angenehmer Aufenthalt, gute Lage, freundlicher Gastgeber – Sonja from Austria – 29 August 2024 (10/10)

    Perfekte Lage an der Grenze zwischen Altstadt und Zentrum. Zu Fuß waren wir in 15 Minuten in der Altstadt oder im Jugendstil Viertel, oder am Bahnhof, Busbahnhof und den Markthallen. Nette Gegend mit guten Lokalen, Bäckerei, Supermarkt in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft. Das Haus ist gepflegt, die Wohnung im 5. Liftstock ist zum Innenhof gelegen, daher ruhig und man konnte die Fenster zum Lüften gekippt lassen. Eine Erstausstattung von allem war bereits vorhanden (Toiletteartikel, Reinigungsmittel, Lebensmittel udgl.) und der Tisch zu unserer Ankunft gedeckt, was eine nette Geste war.
    Besonders freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber, problemlose Kommunikation.

  • Superb – Raimonda from Lithuania – 16 May 2024 (9/10)
