If there is no money, but you really need to live somewhere, then it is quite a normal price-quality ratio. The hostel is aimed at those who work in Riga on a shift basis. Mostly workers and truckers from Belarus and Ukraine live there. There are also Latvians from remote areas, but there are few of them, just like tourists, although I saw a girl, in my opinion, from Italy, who communicated through a Google translator on a tablet.
The staff speaks Russian and Latvian and is happy to help in every possible way. To the point that when I urgently needed a letter from the hostel confirming the reservation, it was prepared for me and sent to the post office twenty minutes after the phone call.
Ziepniekkalns is not a tourist place at all, but you can get to the center by trolleybus in fifteen minutes. The main inconvenience, if you come to Riga to have fun, will be a "curfew", they ask you to return before eleven, at least until midnight. Although I returned once at two in the morning, but the administrator and I agreed on this in advance and I did not abuse it.
