We stayed three nights while in town for our daughter’s graduation from PLU. The property was even better than advertised. Loved the neighborhood. Loved the view of Commencement Bay from the patio. Loved the big, comfy bed. And the sauna was fantastic!

North End of Tacoma, March, 2024
The location was perfect for us. We were in town to visit family and friends. Close to the waterfront restaurants, and to family. Easy access to the Narrows Bridge. Two suggestions: Notify client of the significant stair in order to enter the bathroom; the addition or access to water and a sink would be ideal in the coffee area.

I would recommend this stay. You couldn't ask for a more lovely neighborhood and it is all less expensive than a hotel room.

Beautiful view, cute place.
Beautiful area. Super cute guest house. It’s very small and only a microwave and mini fridge for kitchen equipment. But if you are ok with that, it’s a great place. They do little things to make you feel very welcome. We will definitely book here if we are back in the area.

Nice room in beautiful quiet neighborhood
Other than the place not being prepared for us to check in, this place is a nice "hotel room" type option. Just a room with a microwave, small fridge, and coffee maker. It is located in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood with a very nice view. The owners were out of town and miscommunicated with the contact person so the place wasn't ready when we checked in. Dirty dishes, used bottles of water around, no coffee, or wine glasses (as stated) were left for us. It took about 8 hours but we finally got some assistance. Overall though, it's a nice place to stay.

I slept better there than I had i 30 years. The location is quiet and within easy reach of shopping and attractions, like the Point Defiance Park and the Ferry to Vashon. I would gladly stay there in the future.

Love this place!
Cozy quiet and comfortable. Nice to have a view to wake up to! The house is located in a great residential neighborhood we walked to the waterfront and the park enjoying all the beautiful views, houses, and flowers along the way! Because we were in Tacoma for a wedding we didn't get to hit the museums or do much shopping but I think we will just need to come back!

Low ceiling, low beam, poor light, chopped up rooms. No pictures indicating irregularities
This property has some issues. The pictures do not portray the truth…very low ceiling and lower beam, poor light, dirty windows, and the room is under the garage and it feels like it with chopped up space. toilet and bathroom sink in small, oddly sized space. Worse, pictures don’t tell you the story.

Uncomfortable
First of all, the heating system was broken so it was very cold. The tiny fridge was full of other people’s food. The coffee maker didn’t work. The internet barely worked. It took multiple attempts to contact the host. Very unresponsive about internet issues. There were at least half a dozen spiders throughout the place. There’s no means to prepare food. The soap/shampoo dispensers in the shower were empty. I am a neat freak and the host said I left it messy? She also said in her review I didn’t follow the property rules? Not sure what that is about. Overall I would not recommend this property. I

Close to relatives
The room was nicely appointed and clean. I had one issue - the heat (or lack thereof). I arrived to a cold room, found the heating unit in the bathroom didn't work, turned the heating unit in the main room to high and left. That night I almost slept in my clothes because it was still cold. It took a day and a half for the room to become comfortable. I would have called the owner, but the access information did not include a phone number.
