Sehr zentral gelegen und freundliche Gastgebende. Schöner Aufenthaltsraum und alles überwiegend sauber. Insbesondere kostenlose Ecke mit Café und Obst stechen hervor. Manche Gäste slightly unangenehm aber da kann das Hostel ja nichts für.

Very fun stay at the hostel! The personal was very friendly and welcoming as well. Breakfast is ok, there’s everything you need. Beds were comfortable as well. The only negativ points would be the showers that can be a bit dirty depending on the time of the day you go there. Also the curtains in the room don’t really close correctly anymore

Very nice atmosphere with nice common room. There was also a quiet place to work etc. Nice volunteers and workers. The dorm I stayed in was right next to the entrance and the door made a beeping noise every time someone used the key, that was annoying in the evening, but other than that everything was good. I really liked the free breakfast, it is a very nice addition. Would stay here again.

I need to come to Riga frequently and I've stayed here exactly 3 times. Each time I stayed in the women's room with 6 people. I was very satisfied every time. The hostel is spotlessly clean and the breakfast is superb. Each bed has its own power outlet and nightlight nearby. There are also locks for your lockers. They help with late check-in if you arrive late. Overall I was satisfied. It's a place I will stay again if I need to.

My stay at Cinnamon Sally's truly exceeded my expectations! Who would have thought that for such a cheap price you will get a wonderful breakfast consisting of variety of options, wonderful common area and activities hosted by the staff members and volunteers who put all their passion into making their guests feel so welcome! Let us not forget about a location of this hostel. Since it was so central it made a huge difference exploring Riga! Will definitely come back!

Good for a short stay, atmosphere was good and free breakfast fantastic. Cockroaches in the bathrooms were a bit gross, they need to seal the tiles to stop them from coming out. Overall good stay.

Top Lage. AAltstadt, Bus und Bahnhof schnell erreichbar. Privatzimmer war groß und schlicht, Gemeinschaftsraum und kleine Küche gemütlich, Frühstück ausreichend. Zugang nur durch den McDonald’s und mit 2 Türcodes. Eine Erklärung vorab wäre hilfreich gewesen. Negativ: durchgelegene Matratze, sehr hellhörig, knarzende Dielen. Außerdem roch es oft nach Fett vom McDonald’s, Lüften brachte nichts. Trotzdem gute Unterkunft für einen Kurztrip.

+ Nice hostel, they have put a lot of effort to make it cozy but I think it's a bit too much in terms of decoration so it becomes overwhelming. Breakfast was very good

- Dorm bed was not super comfortable. Showers could be renovated and put a bit more effort into Too much decoration
