First of all let me tell you that it's difficult to describe the great experience I had at the Naughty Squirrel. I could tell you about the newly refurbished rooms, the clean toilets and showers or the really well equipped (free internet, sat tv) and cozy community area. And that the location is really, really central in downtown Riga. But... more

The Naughty Squirrel is a very friendly, very fun hostel in a great location. There's a nice lounge with fast internet/WiFi and a well equipped and CLEAN kitchen as well as a bar, which makes it a nice place to chill after a day of wandering Riga before the nighttime activities begin. I enjoyed my stay very much, and would... more

Dear backpacker, after experiences in more than a hundred hostels all over the world I have to evaluate this one as the "worst case" to choose. If you cancel your booking at this hostel right in time, even so do not be surprised finding a debit of a one night´s stay (without having a bed!) on your credit card account.... more

jarrod , Owner

Hello, My name is Jarrod, the owner and manager of the naughty squirrel backpackers in Riga, latvia... This is the one and only case where we have had any problems with over 1000+ bookings this year already. We accepted we made a mistake with charging his card when he had already cancelled. He wasnt taken out of our system and...

We (boyfriend and I) stayed at the Naughty Squirrel for a couple of nights mid-week. We were initially disappointed to learn that although they advised us there was parking available, this meant that we could pay 9 Lats a day to park in a public car park about a kilometre from the hostel. (We later learnt that this was standard... more

On arrival we were succombed by the friendliness and smiles by the staff. In the adjacent meeting room were other travellers, greeting anyone who entered with a smile. The staff ensured we knew where the best locations were, whether we wanted to enjoy the culture or the nightlife. The rooms were far beyond our expectations for the price. The pictures... more

This place is well worth a mention. In all my travels i have never found nicer staff, cleaner rooms or cheaper beer. It was worth going to Latvia just to stay there. The best hostel ive ever been to. Plus LOCATION,LOCATION, LOCATION cheers everyone. more
