“VROB
13 Mar to 18 Mar
Address:
Carnikava Latvia
I booked this VROB on the Monday the 11th of March
Received the above confirmation.
When I arrived on the 13th no one was around even though I received a check in confirmation.
I chatted with the Owner & she never heard of VROB & never listed the residence that is in the picture.
It’s actually under repairs & renovations so you could not stay in this place anyway.
I had to scramble to find another place which I did a few hours later.
I……
“Amazing stay, right in the city centre. Easy check and and check out, lovely staff to communicate with, great and spacious apartment with everything in it that is needed for the stay ”
“Lovely apartment in Riga Old Town, with shops, cafes and bars nearby. Good facilities, only complaint was the bed was so big we couldn't get in from the side, so had to clamber over from the end.”
“Original apartment is too close to railway and bus terminal which is too noisy at night.
Manage is kind enough to switch to another apartment which is much more comfortable.
Well equipped and spacious. Great”
“The apartment looked smart and newly furnished. We had a very comfortable stay and found the apartment to very well equipped.
Staff were very friendly and helpful, responding promptly to any questions or requests.
The short walk to the beach was a great benefit.
The large supermarket was also a short walk away, for convenience. ”
“A very nice and neat apartment. Efficient and friendly staff at reception. The only problem was that there's road construction at the entrance that was a little inconveniece. Overall is good!”
“The stay was great. The location, the comfort and the safe area was all great. The communication with the owner was great and they even let us check in 3 hours earlier than planned. Recommended. ”
“This was a very comfortable and large apartment with two rooms and a kitchen/bath. There was a washer and dryer which we did not use but were happy to see. There is a shower and a tub! The beds were extremely comfortable - nice and firm mattresses and everything was very clean. The owner was very friendly and happy to help with details. There is a very clear video showing you how to find the door to the place, and the area is very quiet. When we stayed there was some construction in the next lot……
“Our stay at the property was fantastic. It was a unique and individual stay. There was 5 of us there and it had plenty of room for us all. The communication on arrival was fantastic, and the man even informed us it could be noisy which it was but as we were aware of this it wasn’t a problem. I would more than recommend these apartments prime location. The gates downstairs were a little annoying as they on occasion were locked but again we was informed of this and shown the relevant keys etc.……
“Offered refund not via Expedia account but asked to provide my card details which is illegal. Refund was for broken shower which prevented to have it. No dishwashing liquid despite sponge and cooking facilities provided. Dirty mug, which obviously was there for a while. No hairdryer. This was my mistake to book here! Do not recommend”
“Very hot days when we were there. Some fans had been great in the apartment.
The entrance is pretty dark in the night so little hard for elderly people to see the stairs.
There is some noise from the street in the night and early mornings. ”
"The first room I moved in got strong cigarette smoke during the night, it shows Euro 70 for the penalty of smoking, but the smoking came out of the neighboring staff room. Adding 10 more Euro/night to upgrade a smaller room with window the next day, it was solved. Overall, the hotel is in a great location, close to bus station, central market, old town... The soup in the restaurant is warm and tasty, especially in the wet winter day."
