My daughter and I enjoyed our 4 nights stay at Olga's. She's very hospitable and we had cooked tasty, generous portions Russian breakfast everyday. The guesthouse is clean and tidy. It is about 15 minutes walk from the last minibus stop in the centre of Listvyanka(in front of the main Tourists' Information Centre).
Olga speaks enough english for us to understand her. We just wish we speak Russian more than the 3 basic ones we know. There is WiFi. A lot of good restaurant just few metres from the guesthouse. As we were leaving on our final stay, Olga gave me and my daughter big Russian hugs! 

We had a wonderful stay

Olga's home cooked food was to die for! Lovely guesthouse, nice clean rooms, cosy fire, good common room. Highly recommended. We loved this hostel and would definitely go back, the family made us feel very welcome.

Lovely hostel, beautiful location, amazing food!

I've been traveling to Russia since 1993 and by Russian standards Olga is one of the most hospitable hosts I've encountered over the years, from St. Petersburg to Vladivostok. Her English is pretty limited, and obviously reviewer 485SkyWhale miscommunicated badly, but my experience -- both this time and when I stayed here in 2012 -- couldn't be more stark in comparison. A traditional village home that has been updated with modern conveniences and kept exceptionally clean. It is ideally located midway between the two ends of town -- a walk along the lakeshore to either the Baikal museum on one end of town or the boat harbor on the other end. Less than a minute to one of the best cafes in town, called the Podlemoryeh (Подлеморье). The village's quaint Russian Orthodox church is also a stone's throw away. Great value for the money!

Most central location in Listvyanka . . . very hospitable host.

Olga is a very good host, and helpful with local information  The breakfast is filling and wonderful.
This is not a hotel, its a homestay, so adjust your expectations.
Its about a one minute walk to the shore and supermarket, and 5 minutes to the tourist center, make sure to get off at the right place in Listvyanka.

Great stay in Listvyanka

Olga's guesthouse is more like Olga's prison (once you are locked in you face her wrath if you want to step out of the house) - she is a truly unpleasant and miserly woman.  She speaks sufficient English for the job, but as soon as we had an issue she was suddenly unable to speak English, and became like a child blocking her ears and refusing to even listen to us.  The guesthouse is a sad and loveless place, and clearly nothing more than a source of income for Olga.  The beds are also comically sunken and uncomfortable, and make the 3rd class sleeper beds on the long-distance Russian trains seem luxurious in comparison.  Don't be fooled by promises of fabled hospitality - she couldn't be any more unwelcoming.  Don't make the same mistake we made, and book elsewhere!
