Clean cozy house conveniently located

Not knowing the area, we weren’t sure about the neighborhood, but we were surprised at how quiet it was. Walkable to Safeway. Short drive to bigger box stores. We enjoyed our stay, the house and the neighborhood after we got our bearings. The only things found wanting were related to the kitchen. The cooking implements were there but in bad shape. The Housekeeper didn’t check the cabinets after the last stay and my wife found dirty pots and pans in the cabinets. We would stay at this unit again if available the next time we’re in town.

The place was cute, clean, and the overall stay was worth the price. We weren’t there much, so it was perfect for us. The only downside was that the neighborhood felt rough - lots of homeless people on drugs, not much in the way of restaurants and amenities within walking distance and definitely not a neighborhood that you want to be walking around alone after dark. While driving around Tacoma, it seemed like there was a good side of town and a bad side and this is definitely on the bad side. However the stay was fine, the place was cute, the check out process was simple. Overall a good place to stay just know you would definitely need a car to get to any of the sightseeing places and/or restaurants.

This got us in close proximity to the Marriott and was conveniently located to the Tacoma Dome as well. Unfortunately the home was high traffic for homeless folks and even had people living out of their van just around the corner. The yard was very overgrown upon arrival but was mowed during our stay. Definitely take note that the home does not have AC if you’re coming during the summer. It got pretty hot on the 80+ degree days. A lock box or entry on the backside would be awesome, as we never parked out front or used the front door as our regular entry/exit. The parking spot is adequate for one car, but a little tough for two cars if the lower unit is also rented out. Great appliances, cleaners, bath towels, bedding, kitchen utensils for use during our stay. We did have to do some additional cleaning upon arrival as the nightstand had orange peels in the drawer and there were some oranges left on top of the fridge that had started to rot. Overall the cleanliness was good inside the home and the house is well updated.
