Dear Guest, We regret that you did not enjoy your stay at Bella Ev Guest House. The fact that the bathroom and bedroom are boudoir style is clearly shown on all the photographs of this room available on the various websites. If this was offensive to you we wonder why you chose this room from among the various other rooms available, all of which have doors between the bedroom and bathroom. Perhaps it was a matter of affordability, although the Luxury Double room is only R100 more per night. We have always put high value on the safety of our guests and their possessions, we realise that 3 keys may be too challenging for some guests to work with, but we are not comfortable to compromise on safety. Indeed the off-street parking is tandem parking in our driveway which can accommodate up to 4 vehicles. For guests who are open to communicate with us and other guests parking in the driveway has not been a problem to date. On our websites we do mention that we are only able to offer limited off-street parking. Regrettably we have had guests knock down pots in the past. Yes, we do ask guests to leave their shoes downstairs so as to preserve the over 100 year old carpets, to prevent the accumulation of beach sand and dirt, and also because this is an Ottoman House. We realise that some people may not be accustomed to this but this is standard practice in our establishment and we appreciate guests who are able to be respectful of this. At Bella Ev we strive to offer a warm and hospitable environment to our guests, and our other reviews suggest we are not failing at this. Good communication is very much a 2-way street. But sometimes it is a matter of fit – regrettably it is clear that Bella Ev was not the right fit for you.
