Motel Brencis

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

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.

It was close to the road.

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.

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.

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.

Тихий уютный, приветливый персонал.,

Отличное местоположение для следующих транзитом, большая автостоянка, радушный и гостеприимный персонал.

Слабоватый сигнал вайфая, скромная обстановка в номерах, скромный завтрак за свои день.

Отель чистенький, аккуратный. Персонал приветливый, готовый помочь. Завтрак скромный (яйца, булочка, сыр, колбаса, рогалик), но нам вполне хватило. Отель рядом с трассой, но шум не мешал. Чтобы переночевать - в самый раз.
