Ollava Guesthouse

The view was amazing, really close to beach and tidal pool as well as train station. Room was very clean and comfy.

Passing traffic was very noisy. No security gate on room door and no gate or wall between road and room

The super nice host, the view and it is close to Boulder’s beach

Location, view, comfort - the friendly welcome by Retha…

The host was lovely and the room was clean.

If you're looking for a quiet spot, this place isn't for you. From the pictures, we assumed the room was on the beach and away from traffic and busy roads. However, there is a main road right in front of the place and the passing traffic kept us awake late into the night. We were only told about this road AFTER we had booked, and since the rooms are non-refundable, we had no choice but to accept the room. It is the host's responsibility to make this issue clear in the information before booking. Since we live in a busy city and had booked the room for a quiet getaway, this was very disappointing.

The Location is beautiful, and it would have been a wonderful experience if the accommodation was up to standard

The cleanliness i.e. cobwebs under the bed, the bed creaking every time you move, the fridge making a noise throughout the night, if you a light sleeper the constant traffic throughout the night
