The location of the home is near many tourist centers and activities. We felt safe and comfortable and there was plenty of room for the two of us. Don't be surprised to see a few homeless persons near the home with multiple churches and social services nearby to provide support for those in need.
Overall, I had a good experience at this location. The host was very kind and responsive. There were a few small issues which I made him aware of, and will be remedied soon for the next guest.
We stayed here for few days during our travels. It was a very nice space. We are able to walk to several different places for food and drinks. Having been to Tacoma when I was younger, it was nice to see another part of the city.
The place was nice in terms of the location. It was clean; but there were some things that were a bit cumbersome. Not enough light walking to the back; TV up to the ceiling; really sad couch and a front door (inside) step up. The own was quick to respond (the next day) to a question I had.
The property itself was conveniently located. Everything was within walking distance including my family. Everything was clean, and tidy.
The parking is basically on the street. On the last day our rental car was vandalized. It looked as if they tried to steal it but failed. Just caused a lot of stress.
The place itself is very nice and the property manager kept it clean and tidy and welcoming, however, the neighborhood isn't so great. Many homeless people on drugs were sitting in a park next to the property or across the street at a "multipurpose building".
We were skeptical when we first arrived because the neighborhood looked shady and the reviews weren’t helping either. We decided to stay otherwise and every night I kept thinking is something going to happen to the car. All 3 nights and 4 days, nothing happened. We had a pretty good stay, the unit was pretty clean except for the shower curtain. And the bed was a bit uncomfortable for us but overall it wasn’t too bad.
House was very nice.
The area was a little sketchy with the homeless across the street, but I enjoyed my stay.

Location was sketchy because of houseless people on the block across from the unlockable entrance gate. The house was great except the couch bed. Very uncomfortable. Great location to downtown Tacoma.
I was surprised by how quiet it was. There is a park next door. I would recommend having a car. We did not have one and it is in a residential area, located on a hill. So spent a lot of time going up and down some steep hills.
We booked this place for week and stayed less then 16 hours. I understand this is a city and will have some "sketchy" parts. However there is no driveway and it is right across the street from a church that is no longer a church and houses transients. This is where you have to park. We had homeless folks staring us up and down when we were unloading the car. The gate to get into the house has no locks so anyone could just walk on the property. We heard 13 gunshots a little after midnight. We got up early, went to breakfast and when we returned around 8:30 am there were 3 police cars directly in front of the house as they were "dealing" with an issue at the church. After we spoke with the police, we decided to leave & eat the cost. We headed to a hotel about 20 minutes south. The place itself inside was very nice, clean and updated. But the neighborhood was not for my family.
This turned out to be just as shown on-line. There were 2 of us which made the size perfect. All that we needed was available to us! We briefly lost the internet connection during our stay. We notified the host who “got right on it,” and the problem was solved in record time!! The neighborhood was quiet, and the bed comfortable!! We will definetly choose this place for our next visit!!!
I had a great stay. I was visiting a friend from out if town and we both enjoyed how clean the place is. My friend really enjoyed how all the kitchen set stuff matched the kitchen itself. Had a good time.
It was a great stay and unit was fantastic. It looked like the pictures and communication with Mike was easy. He has little touches through the unit to get you started - toilet paper, paper towels, hand soap, dishwashing liquid, laundry soap, travel size toothpaste, extra blankets, pillows and towels, Swifter mop, etc. Well thought out!
Observations and remedies - the lightbulb burnt out and notified Mike right away. He offered to have someone fix it. I reassured him it wasn't a problem, just wanted to let his cleaning crew know so they could bring a bulb when they get there upon our check out. Also noticed a slightly loose trim on the entry platform. Again it didn't bother us, just wanted to let him know so he could monitor it, as time and weight could pry it loose.
The neighboring properties are not as well maintained as his, that is not anything he can do, but it made us feel a little uneasy since we were not familiar with the neighborhood and our sense of security was always on alert.
We also got in really late at night so naturally there is not a lot of light on the quiet residential property. This unit is in the back and you have to traverse through a gate, along a gravel path on the side or the front property, to another gate before you get to the back property. It is quite dark and being unfamiliar, we felt bad lugging our suitcases and making noise at that time of night. It's really quiet and walking on gravel sounds extra loud. We used our flashlights on our phones to find our way through, it was quite dark. Having a motion light to get to the back property would have made it easier, but we realize it may be a nuisance to the front property with bright lights possibly turning on at all times of night or morning with the rental unit in the back. Maybe path lights could be a solution? Just some tips for future renters, have a flashlight if you get in late or leave early....it really was a great place!
I’ve never been in Tacoma before and we’ll, google maps doesn’t do any justice, the neighborhood was sketchy and sor of dirty, the garbage truck came 2-3 times that week that seem a bit off.
But the building was good and clean, there a bbq area which I wish I had the time to give it some use. There was a confusion about which building was, there are 2-3 buildings that look the same so I initially thought I was in the front building.
