    Bathroom.

    Motel in a very nice area next to the main "Baltica" road. Although from inside it's like a time travel 30 years backwards. But on the other hand it has its own charm. We had a superior double room. The size of the room was generous. Bed was very comfy and huge. The beddings smelled nice. No kettle, no small fridge. The bathroom was a real let down after all day travelling, honestly it was criminal.. it was clean, but the shower head didn't work and I had to unscrew it and shower like with a garden hose.. old toilet, sink with half broken mirror, terrible cracked tiles... during our one night stay the sockets didn't work, we couldn't charge phones etc... but the young lady at reception was very sweet with good English and trying to help with the situation. Overall for one night stand it's ok, but it would need some renovation. Anyway we had a good sleep and in the morning continued fresh forward..

    Not sure if this is positive or negative comment, but the facilities are stuck in time somewhere in the early 1990s. Seems like not much has changed since then. Things would look better if they just turned on the lights in public areas.

    This location suits anyone looking for a conveniently located and affordable stay for one night. Front desk person was very helpful.

    Room looks and is old. Spiders in the bathroom. No AC, so if it is hot and humid outside, it is hot and humid inside.

    If you’re driving via Baltica, this is right on the roadside, easy to find. Good looking exterior and lobby/breakfast area, nice outside yard to have ypur coffee etc. Friendly dog Felix welcoming people at reception.

    Bed was very good and there were no noises from nearest road when windows were closed. Motel is open till midnight what was also suitable for me because I arrived at 11 pm. Perfect option for staying during long and boring driving on via Baltica. I definetly will stay here again.

    Room door lock was a bit tricky but this wasn't really an issue.

    Motel Brencis offered a cozy and nice sleepover on Via Baltica. Motel is located just next to via Baltica so no time is wasted travelling through city. I had very welcomed feeling when arriving and staff was very helpful.

    The room is not equipped with anything, the furniture is very old and the whole place is very rundown.

    It’s located in a forest next to the main road. The windows are soundproof, I couldn’t hear anything from the traffic.

    The accommodation had a distinct Soviet-era vibe. The rooms were clean, but the mattresses were saggy and uncomfortable. The toilet cistern required manual adjusting to stop it from running, and the corridors were so dark it was hard to see the room numbers. Breakfast was quite minimal: a few slices of sausage and cheese, one egg, a tiny portion of margarine, a packaged croissant, and coffee. Upon arrival, we mentioned the name under which the booking was made, and the receptionist grumpily responded, “And so?” Only after we clarified that there should be two rooms booked under our name did things start to move forward. It left us wondering whether their booking system doesn’t show reservation details under the guest’s name—or perhaps you can also reserve a boat or a ballgown along with your room—or maybe the man just had a bad day. Overall, the price-to-quality ratio was a negative surprise for us.

    Location. We were greeted by the administrator's dog and a few local cats. 😄

    I booked it for 2 adults and 3 children with breakfast included. In the reception they asked for extra payment for breakfast of one child. I said that I will file a complaint and then they agreed that I don’t have to pay and they would make the breakfast as a gift from the hotel - the breakfast I had paid for. There was lots of arguing and the male receptionist raised his voice. It seemed that they tried to charge extra from the foreigners - a kind of post-soviet style way, which I had thought had been left in the past in Latvia.

    It was close to the road.

    Water flow is low in the bathroom.

    The staff is a family and was very friendly and responsive to our requests. We were in Lativia to visit our family and do some home maintenance, and the director kindly put us in touch with local technicians. The solid and tasteful breakfast keeps you up and running until late afternoon. The parking is large, the surroundings are green and peaceful, you hardly hear the vehicles on the nearby road.

    The man who was working at the reception was incredibly rude and unwelcoming. If i had known we didn't have an advance payment i would have left. The rooms were smelly and in one of the rooms the toilet didn't flush. Also there were basically no plugs and all the plugs were behind furniture.

    as we were looking for a place to stay traveling and only wanted a place to sleep the location was perfect. The price-quality ratio was acceptable.
