“Outstanding I will return, I do recommend.”
The owner is an absolute gem. Restaurants were close, the gentleman drove me to the nearest one that was open, after closing hours of most restaurants so I could get a meal. He did not charge me any extra cash. Simply said |you are my guest, I will take care of you| Brillant stay, I do highly recommend this place. Breakfast was fantastic and worth the cost. I will return, I highly recommend.

The room was small and a bit stuffy, but the location was excellent: close to the sea, the city center, and parks. The room offered basic comfort, and the price matched the quality.

“Great stay and great price”
The host called us to check on us on the day of arrival and when we met him, he was very friendly and showed us everything in the room. The building looks a little run down from outside but inside everything is warm and comfortable and I can recommend this place when staying in Ventspils. He even recommended a nice restaurant over the road that had excellent food.

“Very lovely place!”
This was second time we stayed there. Very close to beach and city centre. Friendly stuff, pet friendly. This time we stayed on second floor and there is quite nice living room for all guests with toys for the children.

“A solid hotel just a short walk from the beach.”
I really liked the location. Ventspils is small but still - very convenient to get around.

“Cosy vacation in Ventspils.”
Breakfast was for additional fee, quite cheap and tasty. Room was large enough, had 2 rooms and TV, kettle. There was free space with TV and microwave, who could use everyone. Quite location, close to the beach. Price and value balance is very good.
