My partner and I loved staying at Matze and Dean's place. It is a bright, quiet, spacious, and clean stay with a private entrance and an easy check-in and check-out process. We took our car and had no trouble with parking. In the evenings we took advantage of the BBQ in the back and sat under the stars. We felt it was great value given all the amenities, and especially compared to the pricing to other accommodations (AirBnb or otherwise).
Though we did not meet the hosts in person during our 2 night stay, their prompt responses in our communication and the many thoughtful touches including the art, comprehensive amenities, and the locally made soap helped us feel welcome and comfortable. They also were very kind in their offers to help when I discovered I had misplaced a valuable belonging after check-out.
It was our first trip to Galiano and we feel fortunate to have been able to stay with Matze and Dean!
