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.

Analisi dell'atmosfera
Cinnamon Sally Backpackers Hostel e un ostello centrale a Riga con un vero polso sociale: pub crawl, attivita in citta, danze lettoni il mercoledi, musica e spazi comuni che rendono facile agganciarsi ad altri senza spingere tutto nel caos totale. L'energia dello staff e una parte grossa del posto, con check-in calorosi, dritte locali e un ritmo casalingo attorno alla cucina e alla zona colazione. Il pezzo forte e la colazione. Aspettati una generosa offerta gratuita con caffe e te, frutta durante il giorno e a volte waffle freschi, croissant, pane, uova, formaggio, marmellate, cetriolo, pomodoro e Nutella. Ci sono anche una stanza tranquilla o area lavoro, un lato piu sociale dell'ostello, armadietti nei dormitori e una regola niente-scarpe-dentro che fa sembrare l'ostello piu una casa che un hub di passaggio. La posizione e eccellente per Riga: vicino al centro storico, alla stazione centrale, agli autobus e ai principali luoghi da vedere. La parte strana e pratica, non poetica: l'ingresso e dentro un McDonald's, l'ostello e al terzo piano e arrivare tardi puo confondere se codici di accesso o indicazioni vengono persi.
Segnali da controllare
- Trovare l'ingresso puo essere davvero confusionario, soprattutto di notte o con brutto tempo; cerca la porta dentro McDonald's e tieni pronti i codici di accesso.
- Niente aria condizionata e poca circolazione d'aria possono rendere le stanze calde o umide in estate, mentre le finestre aperte possono portare rumori e odori dalla strada, dal cortile, dalle ventole o da McDonald's.
- Bagni e docce possono essere il punto debole: numeri limitati, momenti affollati, problemi di scarico e pulizia non costante.
- La privacy nei dormitori e basilare in alcune stanze, con tende dei letti mancanti, biancheria piccola per corpi piu alti e occasionali scomodita nei letti superiori.
- La sicurezza manda segnali misti: le porte dei dormitori possono non sembrare sempre controllate, il deposito scarpe e condiviso e vecchi problemi di furti o oggetti smarriti rendono gli armadietti da usare sul serio.
- Le lamentele piu vecchie sui parassiti sono serie, specialmente cimici dei letti; anche un episodio del 2026 legato a un cambio letto includeva morsi.
