Been here 2 times, in summer and on new years eve and both times were excellent. This place is more like home rather than hostel. Warm carpets, nice furniture, perfect location, very open and friendly staff. Dont hesitate what to choose if you want lovely, quiet vacations. Btw they have "brother" hostel with parties and clubbing facilities

On june 2011 I was strolling through the old town looking for place to stay. The unusuall name of this hostel atrracted me from the very first moment so I jumped in to take a look and decided to stay. I stayed there two nights only because of the train for Moscow which I had to catch but Riga old... More

I stayed two nights in October in a eight-bed room, but I miss it so much! 10 minute walk to the bus and train stations. It is really a boutique-type hostel, which is like if you stayed at your friend abroad who has quite a big family. I can only confirm the best words of other reviewers. I could not... More

There are drinks and beers for sale for 1 Lat. Gunni was so very helpful in helping us find things to do. She provides maps and brochures too! It was... More

While Riga itself was a beautiful experience, the Blue Cow Barracks made a stay in the city a pure delight. The hostel is located very much in the center of Riga, in a vibrant neighborhood. It was super tidy, and the staff was extremely helpful. We stayed in the private rooms, and these provided 3 if not 4 star comfort.... More

This place was such a treat. Never stayed in a hostel so nice before. Honestly more like a B&B, so relaxed. Latvian & Aussie couple owners so helpful. Also tied with Naughty Squirrel Hostel so if you want to party go down the road 5 minute walk there if your keen and then come back to peace and quite when... More

Just one word : this is perfect ! Located in the heart of Riga old town, a few blocks from the Parliament, this is place is very comfortable, very clean and staff is really helpful. You can stay there without any fear.

I was very pleasantly surprised by this hostel. It's located in very nice corner of the old town and the place just superb value. Very clean, modern and well run guesthouse. I would definitely recommend this for backpackers or couples exploring riga. Stag party groups hopefully stay in some other guesthouse as i valued the quiet and relaxed atmosphere.
