The hotel was clean and comfortable, however, there was no air conditioning so it was difficult to sleep at night. Also, the beds were were short and narrow. There was also only a net curtain and a thin, almost transparent, pale green curtain hanging which meant that at 3.30am the room got as light as the day outside and it was difficult to sleep.
Breakfast was OK, although not a great choice - cold omelette and sausage for the 3 mornings we ate there! However, there was also plenty tea, coffee, juice, bread/toast, cheese, cold meat and yoghurts.
The staff spoke great English and were helpful. The area the hotel was in wasn't great but better than some of the areas you travelled through on the tram to get into the city centre. The 30p trip into the town was a bargain! We enjoyed the bowling and snooker across the courtyard.

Stayed at this hotel for 4 nights midweek. The hotel is very clean and functional (bit like a travel lodge). Breakfast is in the Bowling Centre Restaurant - very continental - cold meat, cheese, yogurt and bread (which could be toasted) and the staff were very nice with a good command of English.
The hotel is a bit out the way but transport was easy - tram (30 pence per journey regardless of length). £5 for taxi. Tram took about 15 minutes.

We just came back from Riga and enjoyed our stay in this hotel very much! I was really surprised by the cleanliness of the rooms even though I had read positive comments about it. The hotel staff was also very friendly!

We didn't have any problems with the location since we took a tram downtown and found it very convenient let alone CHEAP (20 santims, which is less than 30 cents). The hotel staff helped us to find the tram.

Breakfast was the only thing which I wouldn't rate very high: there wasn't much variety (we stayed for 4 nights), bread was a bit dry and fresh fruit was served only once. But it was enough to fill the stomach, though.

We stayed at the Toss Hotel from 7 to 9 October 2006. The hotel itself is lovely, everything seems to be new and they have the most comfortable beds, pillows and duvets I have ever slept in at a hotel. Breakfast was cheese, ham, gerkins, and either a boiled or fried egg. The hotel was down the back of a load of buildings, I was so convinced that we weren't at the right hotel (the hotel name is not immediately above the entrance way, it is another name), I refused to get out of the car until my husband went in and confirmed that this was in actual fact the Toss Hotel. The only downside to our stay here was the convenience to the town centre. We spent from between 7 to 12 lats per journey into the town centre. Very expensive for a 10 minute taxi ride, we must have spent at least 60 lats (which is very close to 60 GBP) for just three days on taxi journeys to and from the Town Centre. When you get into the cab, ask them if they go by the meter, and check that the meter is on and working before you get in. Otherwise they will just pull a figure out of the air. We got caught out a couple of times by this. The area is nice and quiet, but not really within walking distance of town, it would be a good couple of hours and not the nicest walk along the motorway.
