Wonderful and spacious with a view!

We have nothing but good things to say about this place. The location was excellent ... very close to the water and to Puget Sound University if you are visiting the college. Our teen walked to the coffee shop down the hill each morning. The neighborhood is very safe. The beds were very comfortable and the rooms are nice and large. We also really appreciated the coffee and creamer. Another bonus ... we had forgotten a few items (like toothpaste) and they had a bunch of toiletries that we could use ... thank you so much!

This property was everything we hoped it would be

We were so pleased to have chosen this property for our long weekend getaway. It was everything we hoped it would be and it was exactly as advertised. The view was spectacular, the neighborhood was fantastic, the parking was easy, the property was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The property managers were friendly and available if/when we had questions. We have already discussed booking this property again the next time we're in Tacoma; you really can't go wrong with this one.

Harbor View

The property was as advertised. The kitchen was reasonably complete. The neighborhood was quiet, with two coffee shops down the hill from the house. (Note: the house had a Mr Coffee, French press, and Kuric (or however it is spelled).) It was interesting to see the ship come down the Puget Sound from Seattle and into the Tacoma harbor.
