Other things to note What we would like to warn our dear guests about: — the building is quite good hearing, so we kindly ask our guests to respect their, albeit temporary, but neighbours, — there is no elevator in the building; — the TV is connected to the Internet so you can watch your Netflix or Youtube channel. Cable TV is not available, — fireplace can be used with candles only (we provide them), — garbage bins are located outside the building (5 minutes walking away), because we are not allowed to keep them in a yard, — the kitchen hood is purely decorative, as the building’s structure does not allow for a dedicated kitchen ventilation system. However, you can use the central ventilation (the wall panel with arrow buttons located near the entrance) to help remove cooking odors, —the closest covered parking is at Zigfrīda Annas Meierovica Bulvāris 8, 6-7 min walking away.
