The Riga Student Hostel, formerly known as "ProfitCamp," is a busy hostel located in the Old Town behind the glitzy Galleria Shopping Center.
The hostel provides 150 beds in 20 rooms on six floors (no elevator). Rooms run the gamut from dorm rooms (sleeping 6-24), to private single, doubles, triples, and quads, all with shared bathrooms. The hostel's entrance is through a residential courtyard, and the reception is located on the first floor.
The private rooms we saw were pretty small and stark, furnished only with a metal-frame bed, dresser, mirror, table, chair, and lamp. Dorm rooms offer a bit less, although linens are provided at the reception. Shared baths were renovated in 2005 and still look pretty fresh. Rooms look out to either the courtyard or surrounding streets.
The Riga Student Hostel is entirely non-smoking. A light breakfast is included in the room rate, and the hostel offers a free internet station and free Wifi in the reception area. A guest kitchen is open to all guests, as is the hostel’s laundry facility.
Note: As with most other student lodgings, the hostel can be loud at night.
Note: This hotel was visited by a EuroCheapo editor and is recommended based on cleanliness, location, price and overall quality. EuroCheapo did not charge this hotel to be listed.

About the Riga Student Hostel (Profitcamp) neighborhood
The "Old Town" is the medieval heart of Riga, a maze of winding cobblestone streets, stony churches, and public squares. Most of the city’s main tourist sights are located inside the Old Town, including the Cathedral, St. Peter’s Church, House of the Blackheads, Parliament, and the city’s Castle.
The Old Town is unsurprisingly also home to a wide range of restaurants, bars, shops, and hotels. We focused our hotel hunting on properties inside the Old Town, as this is the middle of the action. During peak summer months, the streets will be noisy with nighttime revelers, so light sleepers may wish to ask for rooms off the street—or in another neighborhood.
