Alba Hotel

I loved it here! I chose this hotel because it is very close to the beach but prices are better. Also I loved the homestay feel of this place.

Good things:

- Location. There are two railway stations nearby, the sea is just 2-3 mins walk by foot, there is also a shop and a cafe (note however that the cafe closes at 18:00). Please note however that this is basically a countryside so there are no bars/cinemas/nightlife
- It's very clean
- Pet friendly
- There's a small private area for guests: you can relax on the terrace or play ping-pong (for free)
- The breakfast is nice
- Beds are comfortable
- Rooms have small balconies
- WiFi connection is fast and reliable
- Free tea and hot water (only on the 2nd floor)
- There's an onsite parking

Not so good:

- The most annoying thing is that other guests are smoking right on the balconies: in my humble opinion, it should be strictly forbidden
- There are no anti-mosquito nets which means you'll have to deal with various flying things including hemipterans
- There's also no AC which means that in summer you'll have to open windows, and that means... Right, flying midgets
- While the property is pet friendly, the balconies are not really suited for cats or small dogs: there are large holes and your pet might run away. Which basically means we could not open the balcony door during the night.
- They use a very strange air freshener with heavy sweet smell which was killing me. You might like it though.
- The hotel is located between two pretty busy streets which means it's noisy until late in the evening
- All personnel leaves the property at around 20:00. Therefore, if you decide to go out in the evening MAKE SURE YOU REMEMBER THE DOOR CODE and take your key card. Otherwise you may end up chilling out in the street for the rest of the night. By the way, I doubt they hardly ever change the entrance door code which is not very safe tbh

It's suited near the beach which is convenient but far from the center and malls. Stuff is helpful and polite.

Small hotel away from center and big noise, close to thee sea .. small store where you can buy some basic food and small cafe downstairs.. for this area good location not far away from popular street "Majoru iela" where is a lot of bars restaurants and staff. Closest shopping is about 30 min away.

Honest place. You get what you pay. Big enough room, very clean, but of course not 5stars hotel. You can make your own tea and they have a fridge where you can store your own food and drinks. Recommend for travelers on a budget. Very nice breakfast

More like a guest house, but that didn't bother us. Good value for the money. Clean, polite and helpful staff, but not for the traveller who's looking for superior quality

Nice place, good food. Delicious homemade sweets.

Nice family runned hotel, restaurant and grocery store.Good value.
