I got bit up by beg bugs all over my face and hand while I slept. I told the staff member and she told me bed bugs don't bite your face. This is a lie as they do tend to bite the face. My face is very itch, painful, swollen, and red. You can feel and see where the bugs bite me. She did not offer anything to help. She demanded my full payment. Stay here if you want to be miserable for the rest of your trip.

Bedbugs. Chinches. Lo siento, pero devolverme el dinero de la primera noche (que dejé en la nueva habitación cuando me fuí) y un cambio de habitación, no son suficientes; cuando les expliqué que me habían "comido" los chinches sentada en una butaca de la zona tranquila, me dijeron que no habían visto nada en mi cama, a pesar de haber matado uno contra la pared. Ahí seguirán, campando a sus anchas.

Cleaning of showers, toilets and rooms. I was always afraid of getting fungus and biting from bed bugs. Rooms are not clean, smells awful. Plates, forks, spoons, glasses are dirty. Showers are small and very dirty. There's hair and bristles everywhere, the water doesn't go away. Cleaning is a big issue.

I was bitten by bed bugs at night. I even managed to take a picture of one. I had about ten bites. I spoke with my roommate, and he was bitten too. I had to urgently leave and look for accommodation during the night. Thank you for refunding my money.

While the location of Cinnamon Sally, Latvia, was incredibly convenient, my stay was marred by significant issues. The noise levels from the street were unbearable and, to make matters worse, I encountered a severe bedbug problem. Needless to say, I was not pleased with my experience.

I would definitely give a 10 if not for the bedbugs which really bothered me during the stay, and some other guests experienced the same

There were bed bugs everywhere, not only in the beds but also in the Sofas. I stayed twice there. Beginning and end of November. I had bites both times and had to clean very well clothes and stuff after staying there. The first time staying there I was not Sure about the bed bugs, thats why I booked again the same Hostel. However the second time I could confirm it.

BED BUGS! Stayed for 3 nights, and a friend has come back full of bites which have been diagnosed by a doctor as bed bugs - DISGUSTING. Location is good, but facilities are pretty poor - showers are awful with dirty shower curtains and sodden bath mats. Staff were okay, but some of the “leaders” very hostile and clicky with certain guests which isn’t what you expect from a hostel. There are plenty of other hostels in Riga, so AVOID this one.

Need to be honest bc I’d want to know as I read reviews.. November stay included an unexpected bedbug encounter in two diff rooms, but staff swiftly addressed it, inspecting thoroughly and even doing my laundry for free. Also got a refund for my stay given the situation. Positives: great location, delicious breakfast, a clean hostel, friendly staff who clearly care about their guests. It’s an excellent hostel, I just got unlucky with some rogue bugs it seems.

A chill place. Unfortunately, on my third night here, I got bit by bed bugs here, all over my body including my face, neck, hands, arms, legs, feet. I spoke to the owner Julius about receiving a refund and he got angered by the idea of me even asking for one and told me to leave. They did wash my clothing for free including my backpack but that was only after I asked for it- it was a very slow service, I gave it to them in the morning and I didn’t receive it till the next day so one night I went without pajamas. The volunteers I met here were very friendly.

Awful, don't go there. I got bedbugs, and they not even do nothing. I paid by myself all the medicines I needed, they didn't refund my money back of that night and when I found a room un the city I already paid that night I asked for my money And they didn't let me that favour. Hours later of changing me the bed because of the bedbugs i saw that they give someone that sale bed to another guy without doing an exhaust cleaning. Very bad experience.

Vibe-Analyse
Cinnamon Sally Backpackers Hostel ist ein zentrales Riga-Hostel mit echtem sozialem Puls: Pub Crawls, Stadtaktionen, lettisches Tanzen am Mittwoch, Musik und Gemeinschaftsbereiche, in denen man leicht Anschluss findet, ohne direkt in Vollchaos gezwungen zu werden. Die Staff-Energie ist ein großer Teil des Ortes, mit warmen Check-ins, lokalen Tipps und einem wohnlichen Rhythmus rund um Küche und Frühstücksbereich. Das Highlight ist das Frühstück. Rechne mit einem großzügigen kostenlosen Spread mit Kaffee und Tee, tagsüber Obst und manchmal frischen Waffeln, Croissants, Brot, Eiern, Käse, Marmeladen, Gurke, Tomate und Nutella. Dazu gibt es einen ruhigen Raum oder Arbeitsbereich, eine soziale Seite des Hostels, Schließfächer in den Dorms und eine No-shoes-inside-Regel, durch die sich das Hostel eher wie ein Zuhause als wie ein Transit-Hub anfühlt. Die Lage ist für Riga exzellent: nah an Altstadt, Hauptbahnhof, Bussen und wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Der seltsame Teil ist praktisch, nicht poetisch: Der Eingang liegt in einem McDonald's, das Hostel ist im dritten Stock, und eine späte Ankunft kann verwirrend werden, wenn Zugangscodes oder Wegbeschreibung fehlen.
Signale zum Prüfen
- Den Eingang zu finden kann wirklich verwirrend sein, besonders nachts oder bei schlechtem Wetter; suche nach der Tür im McDonald's und halte die Zugangscodes bereit.
- Keine Klimaanlage und begrenzte Luftzirkulation können Zimmer im Sommer heiß oder feucht machen, während offene Fenster Straßen-, Hof-, Lüfter- oder McDonald's-Lärm und Gerüche hereinbringen können.
- Bäder und Duschen können eine Schwachstelle sein: begrenzte Anzahl, Stoßzeiten, Abflussprobleme und wechselhafte Sauberkeit.
- Die Privatsphäre in Dorms ist in manchen Zimmern basic, mit fehlenden Bettvorhängen, kleiner Bettwäsche für größere Körper und gelegentlichem Top-Bunk-Unkomfort.
- Bei der Sicherheit gibt es gemischte Signale: Dormtüren wirken nicht immer kontrolliert, die Schuhablage ist geteilt, und frühere Diebstahl- oder Verlegungsprobleme machen Schließfächer sinnvoll.
- Ältere Schädlingsbeschwerden sind ernst, besonders Bettwanzen; ein Bettwechsel-Vorfall 2026 beinhaltete ebenfalls Bisse.
