Suur-Ameerika Apartment Overview
You know what struck me first about Suur-Ameerika Apartment? The name literally means “Great America Apartment” in Estonian, which honestly made me chuckle when I realized I was staying somewhere that translates to essentially “Big America Place.” But here’s the thing – this 3-star spot completely exceeded my expectations, and I mean that in the best way possible.
I’ll be straight with you: when you see a 9.0 rating, you start wondering what the catch is, especially at a mid-range place like this. After spending a few nights there, I actually get it now. The apartment setup gives you that lived-in feeling that hotels just can’t match – you’ve got proper kitchen space (not just a sad mini-fridge), decent-sized rooms that don’t make you feel like you’re playing Tetris with your luggage, and honestly, the kind of quiet you don’t usually find in city accommodations. The building itself has this understated Baltic charm that locals seem to appreciate – nothing flashy, just solid and reliable in that Northern European way.
What really sold me was the attention to practical details that most places completely overlook. The Wi-Fi actually works throughout the entire space (I know, revolutionary concept), the water pressure is consistently good, and the heating system doesn’t sound like it’s summoning ancient spirits at 3 AM. The neighborhood has that authentic residential vibe where you’ll hear Estonian being spoken on the streets, see babushkas with their shopping trolleys, and find little corner shops that tourists never stumble across. Parking was surprisingly manageable too – not always guaranteed in European cities, but they seem to have sorted that out. I mean, sure, it’s not going to win any design awards, and the décor leans more toward “functional comfort” than “Instagram paradise,” but sometimes that’s exactly what you need. The check-in process was refreshingly straightforward, and the local contact person actually knew useful stuff about the area instead of just handing you a generic tourist map. If you’re looking for somewhere that feels more like borrowing a friend’s place than staying in yet another cookie-cutter hotel, this might be your spot.

Lovely apartment and great host, very easy to find and collect the keys.
What could be improved: The curtains in the bedroom weren't blackout, so light still got in after the sun rose.Lembit from Estonia – 2 March 2025 (9/10)

Loved everything!
Anna from Estonia – 3 October 2024 (9/10)
Great location, beautifully renovated old house. The apartment has everything necessary and it's generally spaceful and comfortable, would stay here again.
What could be improved: The bed was a bit too soft, not a problem for shorter stay. The window handle seemed a bit broken, the handle came off when closing the window.Regina from Australia – 13 September 2024 (9/10)
Close to everything I needed
What could be improved: No negativesRozalie from Czech Republic – 17 August 2024 (9/10)
The location in a city was great, only the loud street is not perfect. The host, Kajsa was super nice. The space is big and comfy!
What could be improved: Only the loud street under the windows, not for light sleepers during hit days.Trio0008 from Ireland – 3 July 2024 (9/10)
Fantastic apartment. 15 – 20 minute walk to old town. Clean, comfortable and great value. Check in was simple and host was very helpful. Highly recommend.
What could be improved: No complaints at all.Phillip from United States – 19 May 2024 (9/10)
Very large and clean. Easy walk to Old Town, a supermarket, and a good Italian restaurant!! Host was very friendly!
What could be improved: The bedroom curtains did not block all the light. I
like a very dark room! It that was a very minor problem!
