Guest House Karle

The price is relatively high and not worth what you get. The rooms are outdated — the door doesn’t close properly, and both the bed and bathroom are old. Using the sauna is extremely expensive, and even then, it was unavailable due to external use; the same applied to the tennis court. Breakfast costs €14 per person. The owner told us there would be plenty of pastries, croissants, toast, cheese, and more. However, you must choose in advance whether you want an omelette or pancakes, and the only extras provided were a tiny croissant and a small piece of toast alongside the hot dish. When we asked for something small for our 1-year-old, like an extra tiny croissant, we were told we’d need to pay the full €14 as well. The female owner displayed a complete lack of compassion — she couldn’t seem to understand that a 1-year-old would also need something to eat.

The main thing what destroyed the good review was service. A week ago we stayed there as guests because of wedding. At the moment newlyweds where checking out, the host said the meanest thing what any host could say. There was a small misunderstanding with payment and breakfast, but everything was payed on time the same day. Everything could be solved by talking to each other, but host was so angry and rude, that even on the wedding day 15 minutes before cermony she (and weirdly way also the cook) run after bride and was intrusively demanded to pay (newlyweds already paid an advance months before). The next day at the end of checking out the host said in English (so the groom also understands): you were terrible guests, i hope i will never see you again! :o There was no rude behavior from newlyweds, no angry talk from them. But some how the host was really awful! We do not suggest to stay at Kāle just because the host doesn’t know simple rules of hosting guests (not just Latvian guests).

Idyllic small hotel with beautiful garden. Personnel is really friendly, breakfast was beautifully served and delicious. The house is like from fairy tale, luxorius and spacious.
