New spacious and cozy apartment

New spacious and cozy apartment Overview

New spacious and cozy apartment is tucked away on 49 Stabu iela, right in the heart of Rīga’s old town, but it feels like a hidden oasis. I fell in love with it the moment I stepped inside – the light that pours in from the high windows, the tastefully rustic wood floors, and that faint, comforting scent of fresh bread that you can almost smell from the kitchen. Check‑in was a breeze, the host was super friendly and even handed me a local guide for the best cafés in the area. You know what? The little quirks of Rīga – the sound of tram bells, the occasional chatter of street musicians – are all part of the charm, and this place handles them like a pro. There’s a small balcony that overlooks the cobblestones, and at night you can actually hear the distant hum of the city, not the loud, constant buzz you’d expect in more touristy spots.

The apartment itself is more than just a room; it’s a comfortable living space that feels like someone’s home. The living area is big, with a sofa that’s almost too soft to leave – perfect for curling up with a book after a day of exploring. The kitchenette is equipped with a full set of appliances, a kettle, and yes, a real coffee machine that actually brews a decent cup. I mean, it’s not a luxury hotel, but it’s got all the essentials and a few extras like a flat‑screen TV, a good quality Wi‑Fi connection, and a small fridge that’s just the right size for a few bottles. The bathroom is surprisingly clean and has a shower with a decent water pressure – that’s a big win in my book. And the best part? The apartment is quiet. I was surprised by how little noise seeped through the walls, even when the city lights turned on. For someone who’s usually a bit sensitive to noise, this place is a breath of fresh air.

If you’re wondering about parking, there’s a small paid lot right on the street, but it’s only for residents. Luckily, Rīga’s streets are narrow enough that you can easily walk to most attractions. From the apartment, you can hop off the tram at Brīvības iela and stroll to the iconic Freedom Monument, or take a quick walk to the Rīgas Centrālā market where you can buy fresh produce and soak up the local atmosphere. I’ve heard locals say that the best time to visit the market is early morning when the stalls are still fresh and the crowd is thin – a perfect start to your day. If you’re into history, the nearby Museum of the Occupation is just a ten‑minute walk away, and the old city walls are visible from the balcony, giving you a sense of how ancient these streets feel. During the summer months, the streets buzz with tourists, but the apartment’s windows are thick, so you’ll still catch the gentle sea breeze from the Baltic. In winter, the silence is even more pronounced, and you can actually hear your own footsteps echoing in the streets – it’s oddly soothing.

Practical details that matter: the apartment has a small, free Wi‑Fi for guests, and the host sends a welcome email with the Wi‑Fi password and a few insider tips. The check‑in time is 3 pm, but if you arrive earlier, you can drop off your luggage at the host’s office and enjoy the city while you wait. Check‑out is at 11 am – they’re a bit strict about it, but they’re friendly about it too, so you won’t feel rushed. The only minor critique I have is that the air conditioning unit is a bit noisy at night – it’s a small town, so you’ll probably get used to it. But overall, it’s a wonderful base for exploring Rīga, and honestly, I’d book it again without hesitation. The vibe here is relaxed, the service is personal, and the location is just perfect for anyone looking to experience the real heart of the city.

Exploring Riga offers visitors an unforgettable journey through Latvia’s cultural heart, from its UNESCO-listed medieval old town to its world-famous Art Nouveau buildings and dynamic Baltic atmosphere.

• A Truly Unforgettable Stay – Lauren from United Kingdom – 30 January 2025 (10/10)

  Stupendous communication with host throughout. The interior of the apartment was chic, modern and comfortably spacious for two adults. Kitchen is very well equipped, especially if you are planning to do some cooking. Location was also brilliant, great being able to walk everywhere. Loved that umbrellas were provided, very thoughtful touch. Additionally as someone who is a self-proclaimed neat freak – the cleanliness was second to none. The apartment was quite literally spotless.
  
  What could be improved: Having a coffee machine is always a bonus. Minor critique here, but it would have been great not to have rationed pods. Shower could also do with a shelf to prevent having to keep toiletries on the floor. Other than these elements – accommodation was incredible.

• Excellent value for money – Branko from United Kingdom – 2 December 2024 (10/10)

  The apartment was simply and beautifully decorated with Japanese art and a lovely old-fashioned masonry heater.
  Every detail was well suited in the spacious and bright apartment. Mattress and pillows were very comfortable, Wi-fi was working seamlessly, same as heating. Location was also perfect, just about 15 mins walk from the city centre. There are a lot of restaurants, shops and bars in the area and the KGB Museum is only 500 meters away.
  Check in and out were very simple, using door codes. The owner was very helpful and responsive.
  New spacious and cozy apartment definitely justifies its name!
