About the host
Hosted by Nikita

Hi, I’m Nikita. I genuinely enjoy hosting and creating a space where guests feel welcome, relaxed, and completely at home — whether you're visiting for business or a peaceful escape.
Clear communication is important to me, and I’m happy to connect in English, Latvian, or Russian if that’s more comfortable for you. I’m always just a message away if you need anything.
From time to time, I may check in with a quick note to make sure everything is going well. If you'd prefer a completely private stay, just let me know — I’ll gladly give you space.
My goal is to make your stay smooth, comfortable, and memorable.
