Baltic Design Apartments with free parking and self check-in
Overall nice experince, It would have been nice if I could get all the information couple of days earlier to know what I need to know. For parking you need to have a cell phone to call a specific number and I did not have it had to buy a SIM in order to avail the parking.

Konventa Sēta Hotel Keystone Collection
The hotel is a collection of buildings. In our case, it implied a short walk outside to get to the restaurant for breakfast or to the reception. And there was no elevator. Minor issues largely outweighed by the spacious room, great location and helpful staff.
