    Vadonatúj apartman a lehető leginkább központi elhelyezkedéssel, mindennel felszerelve. Egy éjszakára ~80 euróért nagyon jó ár/érték arányú volt. A szállásadónkkal nem találkoztunk, de telefonon, whatsappon azonnal elérhető és segítőkész volt.

This very apartment served as an office for Latvian Chess Federation until it was transformed into an apartment so You can enjoy a cup of coffee from those chessboard cups on a chessboard floor while playing chess :) The building itself is an example of late Art Nouveau, with neoclassical decors used in its decorative design. The facade is decorated with decorative reliefs with medallions. The upper floor of the building is accented by pilasters, whose capitals use Egyptian motifs.
